INTEL Xeon 6342 2.80GHz CPU
The Intel Xeon Gold 6342 is a 24-core, 48-thread processor from the 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable family (Ice Lake-SP), built for mainstream enterprise servers. It suits buyers running virtualization hosts, general-purpose compute, or storage/controller workloads where a balance of core count and frequency matters. Note that it requires an LGA 4189 socket platform, so verify motherboard and BIOS compatibility before ordering.
Key specifications (table)
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Processor Name | Intel Xeon Gold 6342 |
| Architecture | Ice Lake-SP |
| Generation | 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable |
| Manufacturing Process | 10 nm |
| Cores | 24 |
| Threads | 48 |
| Base Frequency | 2.80 GHz |
| Max Turbo Frequency | Up to 3.50 GHz (workload and platform dependent) |

Good to know
- Compatibility: this CPU fits only LGA 4189 socket motherboards designed for 3rd Gen Xeon Scalable (Ice Lake-SP); confirm your platform’s BIOS and chipset support before purchasing.
- Family positioning: within the Gold tier of the 3rd Gen Xeon Scalable lineup, the 6342 offers a high core count with a relatively high 230 W TDP, sitting above lower-core Gold SKUs and below Platinum parts in the same generation.
- Buying tip: at 230 W TDP, verify that your chassis airflow and PSU headroom match the processor’s requirements, and consider pairing it with sufficient memory channels to feed the 24 cores effectively.
