INTEL Xeon 5512U 2.10GHz CPU
The Intel Xeon Gold 5512U is a 28-core processor from the 5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable family (Emerald Rapids), aimed at cloud providers, system integrators, and enterprise IT teams building general-purpose server nodes. With 56 threads, DDR5 memory support, and PCIe Gen 5.0 connectivity, it fits virtualization hosts, data analytics, and storage/database workloads. As with all FCLGA4677 parts, verify motherboard and BIOS support before ordering, since platform compatibility depends on the specific server board generation.

Good to know
- Compatibility: The 5512U requires an FCLGA4677 socket board; many boards originally shipped for 4th Gen Xeon Scalable support Emerald Rapids only after a BIOS update, so confirm firmware versions with your server vendor before deployment.
- Family positioning: Within the 5th Gen Xeon Scalable stack, Gold 5512U offers a high core count at a moderate base frequency, positioning it for density-oriented (U-series) 1S/2S servers rather than frequency-optimized compute nodes.
- Buying tip: When quoting, factor in DDR5 RDIMM kit costs and heatsink compatibility separately — memory and thermal components for this platform significantly affect total system cost and are typically not bundled with tray CPUs.
For tray and reel pricing, current stock by part number and date code, and volume discounts on bulk orders, request a bulk quotation.
