Rack server for dense compute
The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a 1U rack server built for data centres that need high core counts in minimal space. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5317 processors, each running at 3.0GHz with 3.6GHz turbo and 12 cores. The platform supports up to two CPUs and 1TB of DDR4 memory.
Suited for virtualisation and cloud workloads
This configuration fits teams running virtualised infrastructure, high-performance computing or dense analytics where 128GB of registered ECC DDR4 and eight 600GB 10K SAS drives provide a ready-to-deploy foundation. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for AI training or larger NVMe capacity should look at alternative platforms.
Dual Xeon Gold 5317 with 128GB DDR4
The decisive specification is the paired 12-core Xeon Gold 5317 CPUs combined with 128GB of DDR4-2933 ECC memory. That processor and memory pairing determines whether the server meets your throughput and licensing requirements.

Questions about this item
What rack height and rail kit does this 1U server need for mounting?
The server occupies 1U of rack space and ships with ready rails for direct installation into a standard four-post rack.
How are the CPUs and memory installed, and what step is often missed?
Two Xeon Gold 5317 processors are pre-installed in LGA 4189 sockets; 128GB DDR4 2933MHz ECC memory fills 8 of 16 DIMM slots — populate remaining slots in matched pairs per channel.
Which drive and power components will need replacement over time?
Eight 600GB 10K SAS drives and two 1400W platinum power supplies are hot-swappable; the PERC H745 RAID controller includes a battery-backed 4GB NV cache that will require periodic battery replacement.
