Intel Xeon 6730P Processor
Intel Xeon 6730P Processor
The Intel Xeon 6730P is a server/workstation processor with 32 cores, launched in February 2025, at an MSRP of $3726. It is part of the Xeon 6 lineup, using the Granite Rapids-SP architecture with Socket 4710. Thanks to Intel Hyper-Threading the core-count is effectively doubled, to 64 threads. To further increase overall system performance, up to two Xeon 6730P CPUs can link up in a multi-processor (SMP) configuration. Xeon 6730P has 288 MB of L3 cache and operates at 2.5 GHz by default, but can boost up to 3.8 GHz, depending on the workload. Intel is building the Xeon 6730P on a 5 nm production process, the transistor count is unknown. The multiplier is locked on Xeon 6730P, which limits its overclocking capabilities.
With a TDP of 250 W, the Xeon 6730P is extremely power hungry, which means you need top-notch cooling. Intel’s processor supports DDR5 memory with an eight-channel interface. The highest officially supported memory speed is 6400 MT/s. ECC memory is supported, too, which is an important capability for mission-critical systems, to avoid data corruption. For communication with other components in the computer, Xeon 6730P uses a PCI-Express Gen 5 connection. This processor lacks integrated graphics, you might need a graphics card.
