About this part
Refurbished Intel Xeon Gold 6138, a 20-core, 40-thread processor for LGA 3647 two-socket and four-socket servers. The Xeon Gold 6100 series is the performance Gold tier of Intel's 1st Gen Xeon Scalable (Skylake-SP) family, running six DDR4-2666 memory channels, three UPI links and 48 PCIe 3.0 lanes per CPU across 6 to 22 cores. It covers frequency parts for per-core licensing and dense parts for virtualization.

Compatibility
This Skylake-SP part fits LGA 3647 boards only, not the older LGA 2011-3 sockets. Memory runs at up to DDR4-2666. The HPE ProLiant DL360 and DL380 Gen10 run it on the standard heatsink. At 125 W it is the top of the Dell PowerEdge R540 processor range. In a two-socket build, run a matched pair: the same SKU in both sockets. A four-socket HPE ProLiant DL560 Gen10 build needs four of the same SKU and the CPU mezzanine board kit. Browse matching parts for the Dell PowerEdge R740.
When to Choose This
The 6138 packs 20 cores into 125 W, the densest 125 W part in the Gold 6100 range, which makes it the consolidation pick for power-capped racks. The 2.0 GHz base clock is the cost; the Gold 6148 gives the same 20 cores at 2.4 GHz for 150 W. Step-up: on Dell 14th gen boards, 2nd Gen (Cascade Lake) parts such as the Gold 6230 drop in after a BIOS update.
