Xeon Gold 6138T Details

The Intel Xeon Gold 6138T stands as a powerful server-grade processor built on the Skylake-SP microarchitecture, manufactured using Intel's 14 nm process. Released several years ago, it remains relevant in enterprise environments due to its robust feature set and high core count. Designed for data center and high-performance computing workloads, the Xeon Gold 6138T is part of Intel's Purley platform and is compatible with the FCLGA-3647 socket. With a base clock of 2.0 GHz and a turbo frequency reaching 3.7 GHz, the chip delivers strong performance across both single-threaded and multi-threaded applications.

This processor features 20 cores and 40 threads, enabled by Intel's Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) technology, allowing it to handle complex parallel workloads efficiently. The cache hierarchy includes 1.25 MiB of L1 cache, 20 MiB of L2 cache, and a substantial 27.5 MiB of L3 cache, ensuring low-latency data access for memory-intensive tasks. It supports up to 786.4 GB of DDR4-2666 memory across six channels, with a maximum bandwidth of 119.21 GiB/s, making it well-suited for virtualization, databases, and scientific simulations. Its 125 W TDP reflects a balance between performance and thermal efficiency, particularly in multi-socket configurations.

The Xeon Gold 6138T supports a wide range of advanced technologies, including AVX-512, AES-NI, and Intel’s Enhanced SpeedStep and Speed Shift technologies, enabling dynamic power management. It also includes support for ECC memory, Intel vPro, and Intel VT-x/VT-d, making it ideal for secure and managed server environments. Despite lacking integrated graphics, the processor is optimized for compute-heavy applications, where raw processing power takes precedence over graphics performance.

In benchmark testing, the Xeon Gold 6138T achieves an overall score of 5877, placing it at #289 among 2060 processors, with a single-core score of 5398 (#643) and a multicore score of 6596 (#143). These results place it ahead of many consumer-grade CPUs, such as the Core i9-12900 and Ryzen 9 3900X, while trailing behind higher-end models like the Xeon Platinum 8168 and Ryzen Threadripper PRO 9995WX. Its multicore performance is particularly strong, outperforming many high-end desktop CPUs and rivaling some workstation-grade processors.

As of March 2026, the Xeon Gold 6138T remains a solid choice for enterprise servers, especially in scenarios requiring high thread count and memory bandwidth. While newer processors offer better single-core performance, the 6138T's combination of core density, memory support, and enterprise features ensures its continued relevance in data centers and professional workstations.
