Intel® Xeon™ Gold 6312U

The Intel Xeon Gold 6312U is a server processor with 24 cores and 48 threads, built on the Ice Lake architecture. It launched in Apr 2021. Clocks run from 2.4 GHz base to 3.6 GHz boost. A 36-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.8 MB per core). It addresses DDR4 memory up to 6 GB across 8 channels. The chip drops into the FCLGA4189 socket and exposes PCIe 4.0 (64 lanes). Rated TDP is 185 W. Notable platform capabilities: AVX-512, Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Xeon Gold 6312U scores 2,293 in single-core performance and 41,858 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 9,797 for overall performance, 30,418 for productivity performance, 27,149 for creator performance, 53,369 for engineering performance and 17,344 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,744 per core, 872 per thread and 226 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 720. Its performance index is 121, so its overall performance is 21% above 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 6312U scores 174,861 in integer math, 101,843 in floating-point math, 612,735 in compression, 31,278 in cryptography, 2,780 in physics simulation, 45,199 in vector SIMD, 183 in the prime sieve and 74,791 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 197% above in integer math, 122% above in floating-point math, 169% above in compression, 172% above in cryptography, 155% above in physics simulation, 191% above in vector SIMD, 173% above in the prime sieve and 230% 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 6312U has 24 physical cores and runs 48 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 2.40 GHz and boosts up to 3.60 GHz.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6312U is a server processor, belongs to the Intel Xeon Gold family, uses the Ice Lake architecture, carries the codename Ice Lake and is manufactured on a 10 nm process. It launched in Apr 2021.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6312U has 1.88 MB of L1 cache, 30 MB of L2 cache and 36 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 67.9 MB of cache, or 2.83 MB per core. Each core has 1.25 MB of private L2 cache.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6312U has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 1.9 MB, L2 at 30 MB and L3 at 36 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 53% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6312U supports DDR4 memory, addresses up to 6 GB of memory, uses 8 memory channels, runs memory at up to 3,200 MT/s and delivers up to 204.8 GB/s of memory bandwidth. It does not support DDR5 and LPDDR memory.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6312U does not include integrated graphics, so a discrete graphics card is required for display output.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6312U uses the FCLGA4189 socket, supports PCI Express 4.0 and provides up to 64 PCIe lanes.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6312U has a rated TDP of 185 W.
