INTEL Xeon 4208 2.10GHz CPU
The Intel Xeon 4208 is an entry-level processor in the 2nd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable family (Cascade Lake), fitted with 8 cores and 16 threads at a 2.10 GHz base frequency with turbo up to 3.20 GHz. It targets system integrators, refurbishers, and SMB infrastructure builders looking for a cost-efficient option for light virtualization, file/storage nodes, and general-purpose compute. As it uses the FCLGA3647 socket, verify socket and chipset compatibility with your existing platform before ordering.
Key specifications (table)
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Processor Family | Intel Xeon Scalable (2nd Generation, Cascade Lake) |
| Model | Xeon 4208 |
| Cores / Threads | 8 cores / 16 threads |
| Base Frequency | 2.10 GHz |
| Max Turbo Frequency | Up to 3.20 GHz |
| Cache (L3) | 11 MB Intel Smart Cache |
| TDP | 85 W (check server thermal/heatsink rating) |
| Lithography | 14 nm |
| Socket / Package | FCLGA3647 (platform dependent — not compatible with LGA4189/3rd Gen systems) |
| Memory Type / Channels | DDR4 ECC, 6-channel support |
| Maximum Memory Capacity | Up to 768 GB per socket (platform-dependent) |
| Interconnect | 10.4 GT/s UPI (2 links) |
| PCIe Support | PCIe 3.0 |
| Max Memory Bandwidth | 2666 MT/s per channel (platform-dependent) |
Good to know
- Requires an FCLGA3647 socket with a Cascade Lake-compatible BIOS; many 1st Gen (Skylake-SP) boards support it after a firmware update, so confirm BIOS support with your board vendor.
- Within the Xeon Scalable Silver range, the 4208 sits at the entry point of the lineup — lower clock and cache than higher-binned Silver models, but with the same 85 W class power envelope and dual-socket capability via UPI.
- Buying tip: for multi-socket builds, source matched stepping/lot CPUs where possible and confirm your memory modules support 2666 MT/s operation to realize full 6-channel bandwidth.
