INTEL Xeon 8156 3.60GHz CPU
The Intel Xeon 8156 is a 12-core, 24-thread processor from the Xeon Scalable family designed for latency-sensitive enterprise workloads where high per-core frequency matters, such as database servers, virtualization hosts, and compute nodes. It fits buyers consolidating dual-socket servers on the LGA 3647 platform who prioritize clock speed over core count. Note that performance depends on platform support, so confirm your motherboard BIOS and chipset compatibility before ordering.

Good to know
- Requires an LGA 3647 socket motherboard; confirm BIOS support and memory population, as the six-channel memory configuration affects achievable bandwidth.
- Within the Xeon Scalable lineup, this part emphasizes high base frequency with a moderate 12-core count, positioning it differently from high-core-count SKUs aimed at heavily threaded batch workloads.
- Supports 2-socket configurations, so plan your upgrade path accordingly; request batch testing reports and tray/boxed condition details from your supplier before volume purchase.
For tray and reel pricing, current stock by part number and date code, and volume discounts on bulk orders, request a bulk quotation.
