INTEL Xeon 6338N 2.20GHz CPU
The Intel Xeon Gold 6338N is a 32-core, 64-thread processor from the 3rd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable family (Ice Lake-SP), built on the FCLGA4189 socket. It targets system integrators and data center operators building cloud server nodes, virtualization hosts, storage servers, and AI inference or analytics workloads. Note that memory and PCIe capabilities are platform dependent, so verify motherboard compatibility before ordering.

Good to know
- Requires a motherboard with the FCLGA4189 socket supporting 3rd Gen Xeon Scalable (Ice Lake-SP); single- and dual-socket configurations are supported, and maximum memory capacity and PCIe 4.0 operation depend on the platform chosen.
- Within the Ice Lake-SP Gold family, the 6338N sits in the high-core-count tier — its 32 cores at a modest 2.20 GHz base clock favor throughput-oriented workloads (virtualization density, storage, inference) over single-thread performance, where higher-clock Gold models are preferable.
- Confirm your server chassis and VRM are rated for the 205 W TDP, and pair with DDR4 ECC modules at 3200 MT/s across all 8 channels to fully exploit memory bandwidth in virtualized environments.
