Intel® Xeon™ Gold 6154

The Intel Xeon Gold 6154 is a server processor with 18 cores and 36 threads, built on the Skylake architecture. It launched in Jul 2017. Clocks run from 3.0 GHz base to 3.7 GHz boost. A 24.75-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.4 MB per core). It addresses DDR4 memory up to 768 GB across 6 channels. The chip drops into the FCLGA3647 socket and exposes PCIe 3.0 (48 lanes). Rated TDP is 200 W. Notable platform capabilities: AVX-512, Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Xeon Gold 6154 scores 2,203 in single-core performance and 27,672 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 7,808 for overall performance, 21,071 for productivity performance, 19,185 for creator performance, 32,688 for engineering performance and 13,527 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,537 per core, 769 per thread and 138 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 552. Its performance index is 97, so its overall performance is 3% below the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.

Scores for individual PassMark CPU Mark test categories. Higher is better. These are measured test scores, not computed from the single-core and multi-core ratings.

In the individual workload tests the Intel Xeon Gold 6154 scores 120,772 in integer math, 74,511 in floating-point math, 505,603 in compression, 9,221 in cryptography, 1,341 in physics simulation, 39,060 in vector SIMD, 100 in the prime sieve and 64,135 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 105% above in integer math, 62% above in floating-point math, 122% above in compression, 20% below in cryptography, 23% above in physics simulation, 152% above in vector SIMD, 49% above in the prime sieve and 183% above in sorting. Each bar shows the score as a share of that workload's reference ceiling, the larger of the 99th-percentile score across CPUs with a recorded value and a fixed baseline.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6154 has 18 physical cores and runs 36 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 3.00 GHz and boosts up to 3.70 GHz.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6154 is a server processor, belongs to the Intel Xeon Gold family, uses the Skylake architecture, carries the codename Skylake and is manufactured on a 14 nm process. It launched in Jul 2017.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6154 has 384 KB of L1 cache, 18 MB of L2 cache and 24.8 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 43.1 MB of cache, or 2.40 MB per core.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6154 has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 384 KB, L2 at 18 MB and L3 at 24.8 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 57% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6154 supports DDR4 memory, addresses up to 768 GB of memory and uses 6 memory channels. It does not support DDR5 and LPDDR memory.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6154 does not include integrated graphics, so a discrete graphics card is required for display output.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6154 uses the FCLGA3647 socket, supports PCI Express 3.0 and provides up to 48 PCIe lanes.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6154 has a rated TDP of 200 W.
