Professional Creator Platform
The Intel Xeon W-2265 is a dodeca-core processor built for creative professionals who need reliable performance in VFX, 3D rendering, complex CAD and AI development. It operates at a 3.50 GHz base frequency with a 4.60 GHz overclocking speed across 12 cores and 24 threads. The 19.25 MB L3 cache and 14 nm process technology support sustained workloads on the Socket R4 LGA-2066 platform paired with the Intel C422 chipset.
Workstation Builders Seeking 12-Core Balance
This CPU suits users who require 24 threads and a 165 W thermal design power within a single-socket workstation. The 61°C thermal specification demands adequate cooling capacity. Buyers needing higher core counts, lower power envelopes or a different socket interface should evaluate alternative options. The physical dimensions of 2.1" width and 1.8" depth fit standard LGA-2066 mounting.
Cache and Thread Headroom
The 19.25 MB L3 cache combined with 12 MB L2 provides substantial headroom for large datasets in rendering and simulation tasks. Twenty-four threads handle parallel compilation and multi-application workflows comfortably. The 165 W TDP marks the practical limit for air-cooled builds; sustained all-core loads at 4.60 GHz will require robust thermal solutions to stay within the 61°C specification.

Questions about this item
What motherboard socket do I need for the Intel Xeon W-2265 processor?
The processor uses the Socket R4 LGA-2066 interface, so your motherboard must provide that exact socket.
Will my existing Intel C422 chipset motherboard support this 12-core CPU?
Yes, the specifications list compatibility with the Intel C422 chipset, which is the platform designed for this Xeon W-series processor.
How can I verify the processor is running at its 3.50 GHz base clock after installation?
Check the reported clock speed in the system BIOS or a hardware monitoring utility; it should show 3.50 GHz under normal load.
