About this part
Refurbished Intel Xeon Gold 6240, an 18-core, 36-thread processor for LGA 3647 two-socket and four-socket servers. The Xeon Gold 6200 series is the performance Gold tier of Intel's 2nd Gen Xeon Scalable (Cascade Lake-SP) family: six DDR4-2933 channels at one DIMM per channel, 48 PCIe 3.0 lanes and Optane persistent memory support. It is the step up from Gold 5200 for memory-bound workloads.

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 1U Dell PowerEdge R640, check Dell's thermal restriction table; some drive layouts call for high-performance fans. 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 Dell PowerEdge R740.
When to Choose This
The Gold 6240 is the balanced Gold 6200: eighteen cores, a 2.6 GHz base, 3.9 GHz turbo and DDR4-2933 at 150 W. It suits mixed virtualization and database hosts that need both thread count and clocks. The Gold 6254 keeps eighteen cores on a 3.1 GHz base at 200 W. Trap: if raw cores matter more than clock, the Gold 6248 gives twenty cores at the same 150 W.
