About this part
Refurbished Intel Xeon Gold 5220, an 18-core, 36-thread processor for LGA 3647 two-socket and four-socket servers. The Xeon Gold 5200 series is the mainstream Gold tier of Intel's 2nd Gen Xeon Scalable (Cascade Lake-SP) family: six DDR4-2666 channels (DDR4-2933 on the 5222), 48 PCIe 3.0 lanes and Optane persistent memory support. It is the balanced pick for virtualization and database hosts.

Compatibility
This Cascade Lake-SP part fits LGA 3647 boards only, not LGA 4189 servers. A 1st Gen Xeon Scalable server needs a Cascade Lake capable BIOS first (2.1.x or newer on Dell 14th gen), flashed with the old CPUs installed; do not mix generations. In the Dell PowerEdge R740, pair it with Dell's high-performance heatsink kit. This SKU sets memory at DDR4-2666, so faster DIMMs clock down. In a two-socket build, run a matched pair: the same SKU in both sockets; a four-socket build needs four matching CPUs. Browse matching parts for the HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10.
When to Choose This
The Gold 5220 sits between the 5218 and 5218R: eighteen cores at a 2.2 GHz base and 3.9 GHz turbo, 125 W, with four-socket support. It fits virtualization hosts and four-socket builds that need more threads than the 5218. The Gold 5218R gives twenty cores at the same power for two-socket servers. Trap: DDR4-2666 limits memory bandwidth; the Gold 6240 gives eighteen cores at DDR4-2933 for 150 W.
