Intel Xeon W-3225 8-Core Server Processor

The Intel Xeon W-3225 is an eight-core server processor operating at 3.7 GHz with 16.5 MB of L3 cache. It uses the Socket 3647 interface and is built on a 14 nm manufacturing process. The chip has a thermal design power of 160W and includes 64-bit support. It is supplied as an OEM pack for system integrators.

Suited For High-Frequency Server Workloads

This processor suits servers that benefit from high per-core frequency and a moderate core count. It fits single-threaded applications, lightly threaded databases and workstation tasks that favour clock speed over core density. Buyers who need more than eight cores or a lower power envelope should consider other options. The 160W TDP also requires robust cooling infrastructure.

Capacity And Headroom For 8-Core Tasks

The eight cores and 3.7 GHz frequency handle typical eight-thread server workloads with comfortable headroom. The 16.5 MB L3 cache helps reduce latency for frequently accessed data. Workloads that scale beyond eight concurrent threads will saturate the available cores. The 160W thermal limit constrains sustained boost behaviour under heavy all-core loads.

Questions about this item

What motherboard socket is required for the Xeon W-3225?

The processor installs in a Socket 3647 motherboard; verify your board uses that exact socket before purchase.

Can I keep my current cooler when upgrading to this 160W processor?

Your existing cooler must be rated for at least 160W TDP and mount on the Socket 3647 pattern; otherwise a new cooler is needed.

How can I confirm the W-3225 is running at its 3.7 GHz frequency after installation?

Check the CPU frequency in BIOS or a hardware monitor such as CPU-Z; it should report 3.7 GHz on all eight cores under load.
