INTEL Xeon 6126 2.60GHz CPU
The Intel Xeon 6126 is a first-generation Xeon Scalable processor built for dual-socket enterprise servers, targeting buyers who need a balanced mix of per-core performance and platform features for virtualization, database, and general compute workloads. With 6 cores and 12 threads at a 2.60 GHz base clock, it suits deployments where clock speed matters more than core count, such as application servers or storage controllers. Note that this processor requires an LGA 3647 platform, so verify motherboard compatibility and BIOS support before ordering.
Key specifications (table)
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Model | Intel Xeon 6126 |
| Architecture | Xeon Scalable (server-class architecture, first-generation Skylake-SP family positioning) |
| Cores / Threads | 6 Cores / 12 Threads (with Hyper-Threading) |
| Base Clock Frequency | ~2.6 GHz (estimated; guidance only) |
| Max Turbo Frequency | Up to ~3.6 GHz (approximate; guidance only) |
| L3 Cache | ~12 MB (typical estimate for similar Xeon SKUs) |
| Thermal Design Power (TDP) | ~85 W (estimated; guidance only) |
| Process Technology | 14 nm (or similar server-grade node, common for older Xeons) |
| Socket / Package | LGA 3647 (or other server socket, depending on Xeon generation; verify against your platform) |
| Memory Support | 6-channel DDR4 memory architecture (ECC required on server platforms) |
| Maximum Memory Capacity | Platform-dependent; may support large ECC memory pools (check your motherboard spec) |
| Interconnect (UPI) | Supports Intel UPI links for multi-socket systems |
| PCI Express / I/O | High PCIe lane count for server I/O, depending on platform generation |
| Instruction Support | AVX / AVX-512 (depending on generation), Hyper-Threading, Virtualization (VT-x / VT-d) |
| Reliability & Enterprise Features | ECC memory support, RAS (Reliability, Availability, Serviceability) features |
Good to know
- Compatibility: This CPU requires an LGA 3647 socket motherboard with first-generation Xeon Scalable BIOS support; it will not fit LGA 3647 boards validated only for Cascade Lake (second-generation) refresh parts without a firmware check.
- Family positioning: Within the first-generation Xeon Scalable stack, the 6126 sits in the mainstream tier, offering fewer cores at higher base clocks than the higher-core-count SKUs, making it stronger for single-thread-sensitive workloads than for heavily threaded batch jobs.
- Buying tip: When sourcing from the used/refurbished market, request a photo or report of the physical condition of the socket pads and confirm whether a heatsink is included, as LGA 3647 thermal hardware is not always bundled and is platform-specific.
For tray and reel pricing, current stock by part number and date code, and volume discounts on bulk orders, request a bulk quotation.
