INTEL Xeon 6258R 2.70GHz CPU
The Intel Xeon Gold 6258R is a 28-core, 56-thread processor from the 2nd-Generation Xeon Scalable family (Cascade Lake Refresh), aimed at resellers and system integrators building dual-socket servers for virtualization, databases, analytics, and HPC workloads. With a 2.70 GHz base clock, 4.00 GHz turbo, and AVX-512 support, it suits compute-dense deployments where per-core throughput matters. Note that memory capacity, PCIe lane allocation, and overall performance are platform dependent — verify motherboard and BIOS compatibility (FCLGA3647) before quoting configurations.

Good to know
- Requires an FCLGA3647 socket motherboard with a C620-series chipset; some older Skylake-era boards may need a BIOS update to recognize Cascade Lake Refresh processors, so confirm firmware support with your board vendor.
- Within the Xeon Gold family, the 6258R sits at the top of the stack with 28 cores and a 205 W TDP, offering higher core counts and turbo clocks than entry Gold parts while remaining dual-socket only — a step below Platinum SKUs for scale-up workloads.
- When ordering, confirm whether you need tray or boxed units and whether paired CPUs for dual-socket builds should be matched stepping/lot for smoother deployment; also budget for adequate cooling given the 205 W TDP.
For tray and reel pricing, current stock by part number and date code, and volume discounts on bulk orders, request a bulk quotation.
