About this part
Refurbished Intel Xeon Platinum 8260, a 24-core, 48-thread processor for LGA 3647 two-socket and four-socket servers. The Xeon Platinum 8200 series is the top bin of Intel's 2nd Gen Xeon Scalable (Cascade Lake-SP) family: up to 28 cores, six DDR4-2933 channels at one DIMM per channel, 48 PCIe 3.0 lanes and Optane persistent memory support. It scales past two sockets for the largest 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 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 R840.
When to Choose This
The Platinum 8260 is the efficient twenty-four-core Platinum: 2.4 GHz base and 3.9 GHz turbo at 165 W. It fits four-socket virtualization and in-memory database hosts where 205 W parts strain power and cooling. The Platinum 8268 keeps twenty-four cores on a 2.9 GHz base for 205 W. Trap: in two-socket servers the Gold 6252 gives the same core count at 150 W for less money.
