Xeon W-3245 Details

Designed for high-end workstation environments demanding extreme computational power, the Intel Xeon W-3245 is a server-grade processor built for professional applications such as 3D rendering, video editing, and scientific simulations. Released in 2019, it remains relevant in niche professional markets due to its robust feature set and enterprise-grade reliability, though it is now over four years old and has been largely superseded by newer generations of Xeon and Ryzen Threadripper PRO processors.

Built on Intel's Cascade Lake SP microarchitecture at 14 nm, the Xeon W-3245 features 16 cores and 32 threads, enabled by Intel's Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) technology. It operates at a base clock of 3.2 GHz with a maximum turbo frequency of 4.4 GHz, and supports Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0, which can boost a single core to 4.6 GHz under optimal conditions. The processor is manufactured on a CMOS process and uses the LGA-3647 socket, requiring a compatible workstation motherboard.

The Xeon W-3245 boasts a substantial cache hierarchy, including 0.5 MiB of L1 data cache, 0.5 MiB of L1 instruction cache, 16 MiB of L2 cache, and a 22 MiB L3 cache. It supports up to 1024 GB of DDR4-2933 memory across six channels, delivering a maximum memory bandwidth of 131.13 GB/s. With a TDP of 205 W, the processor is designed for high-performance systems with adequate cooling and power delivery.

This processor supports a wide array of advanced features, including AVX-512, AES-NI, Intel VT-x, VT-d, Intel TXT, and Intel vPro technology, making it suitable for virtualization, encryption, and secure computing environments. It also supports ECC memory, critical for data integrity in professional and server workloads. The processor includes Intel Deep Learning Boost and runs on the x86-64 architecture, ensuring compatibility with modern operating systems and software.

In benchmark testing, the Xeon W-3245 achieves an Overall Score of 6155, ranking #195 of 2060, with a Singlecore Score of 5826 (#345) and a Multicore Score of 6648 (#137). It competes closely with high-end desktop CPUs like the Ryzen 7 7800X3D and Xeon w5-2455X, though it trails behind top-tier processors such as the Ryzen Threadripper PRO 9995WX and Core Ultra 9 285K. Its strongest performance lies in multicore workloads, where it excels in parallel processing tasks, but it is outpaced in single-threaded performance by more recent consumer-grade CPUs.

As of March 2026, the Xeon W-3245 remains a viable option for professionals who require a balance of core count, memory bandwidth, and enterprise features in a workstation environment. While it is no longer a top-tier performer in the current market, its robust architecture and support for advanced technologies make it a reliable choice for demanding workloads in legacy or specialized systems.
