INTEL Xeon 6426Y 2.50GHz CPU
The Intel Xeon Gold 6426Y is a 16-core, 32-thread server processor from Intel’s Ice Lake-SP Xeon Scalable family, aimed at resellers and system integrators building or upgrading two-socket platforms for virtualization, compute nodes, and storage controller workloads. With a 2.1 GHz base clock, up to 3.9 GHz turbo, and a 150W TDP, it suits mainstream enterprise workloads where balanced core count and memory bandwidth matter. Practical note: it requires an LGA 4189 (Socket P+) platform, so verify motherboard BIOS support before deployment.
Key specifications (table)
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Processor model | Intel Xeon Gold 6426Y |
| Architecture | Ice Lake (Ice Lake-SP, third-generation Xeon Scalable family) |
| Cores / Threads | 16 cores / 32 threads |
| Base clock speed | 2.1 GHz |
| Max turbo frequency | 3.9 GHz |
| Cache | 24 MB Intel Smart Cache |
| TDP | 150W (ensure adequate chassis cooling and VRM headroom) |
| Max memory | Up to 6 TB DDR4-3200 (capacity may vary by motherboard) |
| PCIe lanes | 64 lanes (allocation depends on platform configuration) |
| Socket | LGA 4189 |
| Security features | Intel TME, Intel SGX |
| Launch date | Q2 2022 |
Good to know
- Compatibility: limited to LGA 4189 server platforms (e.g., C620A-series chipset boards); confirm BIOS/firmware support with your board vendor, and note this processor requires DDR4 memory — it is not drop-in compatible with newer Sapphire Rapids (LGA 4677) systems.
- Family positioning: within the Ice Lake-SP Xeon Gold range, the 6426Y sits in the mid-core-count tier, offering a balance between the lower-core Gold SKUs and the higher-core Gold/Premium models of the same generation.
- Buying tip: for Huaqiangbei export purchases, confirm whether units are tray or boxed, request batch/stepping details where available, and validate condition (new vs. pulled) before committing to volume orders.
For tray and reel pricing, current stock by part number and date code, and volume discounts on bulk orders, request a bulk quotation.
