Intel Xeon W5-3525 16 Cores 32 Threads 4.8GHz E (LGA 4677) PK8071305501700 CPU

Enterprise Single-Socket Workstation and Entry Server CPU Architecture with Intel Xeon W5-3525 (PK8071305501700)

The Intel Xeon W5-3525 is a Sapphire Rapids workstation and entry server CPU designed for single-socket LGA4677 deployments on the W790 platform, where predictable core performance and platform I/O density are decisive. With 16 cores and 32 threads, a 45MB L3 cache, and no integrated GPU, the Intel Xeon W5-3525 targets GPU-host and virtualization roles that prioritize sustained compute behavior and discrete accelerator flexibility.

An 8-channel DDR5 memory architecture with ECC support enables high bandwidth and large memory footprints up to 4TB, aligning the Intel Xeon W5-3525 with simulation, content pipelines, and in-memory services that scale with channel count rather than raw core quantity. Up to 112 PCIe 5.0 lanes provide extensive expansion headroom for multiple GPUs, high-speed NICs, and NVMe storage without oversubscription, supporting balanced architectures for AI workstation hosts and compact private cloud nodes. As a tray CPU, the Intel Xeon W5-3525 requires a qualified cooler and power design appropriate to its 348W TDP.

Why Choose the Intel Xeon W5-3525?

The Intel Xeon W5-3525 delivers a strong density-to-performance profile for 1S systems by combining Sapphire Rapids compute with high-memory-channel count and PCIe 5.0 lane availability, enabling scalable builds without moving to multi-socket complexity. This makes the Intel Xeon W5-3525 a practical choice for reliable, serviceable platforms where expansion planning, ECC memory integrity, and deterministic throughput matter in daily operations.

Intel engineering emphasizes platform validation, instruction-set continuity, and enterprise-grade RAS expectations, aligning the Intel Xeon W5-3525 with modern data centre standards for stability, security posture, and long lifecycle deployment across workstation and edge server footprints.

Key Applications:

• GPU workstation host nodes
• Virtualization and private cloud (1S)
• NVMe-heavy storage and caching servers
• EDA and simulation workstations
• High-speed networking and packet processing
