The Intel Xeon Gold 6128 was a server/workstation processor with 6 cores, launched in July 2017. It is part of the Xeon Scalable lineup, using the Skylake-SP architecture with Socket LGA3647. Thanks to Intel Hyper-Threading the core-count is effectively doubled, to 12 threads. Xeon Gold 6128 has 19.25 MB of L3 cache and operates at a base frequency of 3.4 GHz, with a maximum turbo boost frequency of 3.7 GHz depending on workload conditions. Intel is manufacturing the Xeon Gold 6128 on a 14 nm production process, featuring advanced transistor technology for improved efficiency. With a TDP of 115 W, this processor balances performance and power consumption, though adequate cooling is still recommended for optimal operation. Intel's processor supports DDR4 memory with a six-channel interface at speeds up to 2666 MHz. ECC memory is fully supported, ensuring data integrity for mission-critical applications. For system communication, the Xeon Gold 6128 utilizes Intel's Ultra Path Interconnect (UPI) technology with multiple links for high-speed processor-to-processor communication. This processor lacks integrated graphics, requiring a discrete graphics card for display output. The processor includes support for advanced instruction sets including AVX-512, providing significant performance benefits for compute-intensive workloads. Hardware virtualization (Intel VT-x) with Extended Page Tables (EPT) is available, greatly enhancing virtual machine performance. The processor also features Intel's Run Sure Technology for enhanced reliability in demanding server environments.
