INTEL Xeon 6338 2.00GHz CPU
The Intel Xeon Gold 6338 is a 32-core, 64-thread processor from Intel’s 3rd Generation Xeon Scalable family (Ice Lake-SP), built for dual-socket servers on the FCLGA4189 socket. It suits buyers deploying virtualization nodes, cloud instances, AI inference, analytics, and general enterprise workloads where a high core count and large shared cache matter. Note that final memory and PCIe capabilities depend on the platform, so confirm board support before ordering.

Good to know
- The 6338 requires an FCLGA4189 motherboard with a socket P+ (LGA4189) platform — it is not backward compatible with 1st/2nd Gen Xeon Scalable (Cascade Lake) boards, so verify BIOS support with your motherboard vendor before upgrading.
- Within the 3rd Gen Xeon Scalable Gold range, the 6338 sits in the high-core-count tier: its 32 cores and 48 MB L3 cache suit density-focused virtualization and multi-tenant cloud workloads, while lower-bin Gold parts trade cores for higher base clocks.
- Buying tip: for dual-socket builds, pair CPUs of the same stepping and SKU to avoid provisioning issues, and confirm your chassis cooling can handle the 205 W TDP at sustained load.
For tray and reel pricing, current stock by part number and date code, and volume discounts on bulk orders, request a bulk quotation.
