When to choose the 6952P
In Intel’s line-up this processor sits in a server processor. With 96 cores on the FCLGA7529 platform it suits dense virtualisation, databases and high-throughput compute, and its 400 W TDP sets the cooling and power budget for the node.
Platform & compatibility
The Intel Xeon 6952P uses the FCLGA7529 socket on 2S platforms, supports DDR5(6400MT/s)MRDIMM(8800MT/s) MRDIMM(8800MT/s), with up to 12 memory channels, and up to 3 TB of memory, provides PCI Express 5.0 (96 lanes). Confirm the exact OEM platform, BIOS level and memory population for your workload before ordering.
Deployment notes
The 6952P installs in a FCLGA7529 platform with up to 12 memory channels and up to 3 TB of memory. Intel AMX accelerates INT8 and BF16 AI inference directly on the CPU. Intel TDX adds hardware-isolated confidential-computing virtual machines. Intel SGX provides application enclaves. Intel QuickAssist (QAT) offloads compression and cryptography (4 default devices). It is launched as part of Intel® Xeon® 6 processors and is intended for dense virtualisation, databases and high-throughput compute.
