INTEL Xeon 6548N 2.80GHz CPU
The Intel Xeon Gold 6548N is a 3rd Generation Xeon Scalable processor built for dense virtualization hosts, compute nodes, and storage/controller workloads that need a high core count with strong per-core turbo. With 32 cores and 64 threads, it suits integrators and data center buyers consolidating workloads on the LGA 4189 (Socket P+) platform. Note that platform features such as memory type support (DDR4 vs DDR5) and achieved bandwidth depend on the motherboard chipset and BIOS support, so verify board compatibility before purchase.

Good to know
- Compatibility: requires an LGA 4189 socket motherboard (C620A-series chipset class for 3rd Gen Xeon Scalable); DDR5 support in particular is platform dependent — confirm your board’s memory spec and BIOS revision before pairing.
- Positioning within the family: as a Gold-tier part in the 3rd Gen Xeon Scalable lineup, the 6548N sits above Silver SKUs in core count and cache, offering a balance of 32 cores and a 4.00 GHz turbo for mixed virtualization and acceleration-heavy (AVX-512 / DL Boost) workloads.
- Buying tip: for two-socket builds, source CPUs from the same stepping/QDF batch where possible to smooth provisioning, and budget for the 205W TDP in chassis airflow and PSU sizing — ask us about matched-pair availability from our Huaqiangbei stock.
For tray and reel pricing, current stock by part number and date code, and volume discounts on bulk orders, request a bulk quotation.
