Intel® Xeon™ Gold 6534

The Intel Xeon Gold 6534 is a server processor with 8 cores and 16 threads, built on the Emerald Rapids architecture. It launched in Oct 2023. Clocks run from 3.9 GHz base to 4.2 GHz boost. A 22.5-MB L3 cache backs the cores (4.9 MB per core). It addresses DDR5 memory up to 4 GB across 8 channels. The chip drops into the FCLGA4677 socket and exposes PCIe 5.0 (80 lanes). Rated TDP is 195 W. Notable platform capabilities: AMX (Advanced Matrix Extensions), AMX, AVX-512, Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Xeon Gold 6534 scores 3,451 in single-core performance and 29,912 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 10,160 for overall performance, 24,274 for productivity performance, 22,663 for creator performance, 30,660 for engineering performance and 17,831 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 3,739 per core, 1,870 per thread and 153 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 728. Its performance index is 126, so its overall performance is 26% 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 6534 scores 86,938 in integer math, 64,102 in floating-point math, 329,028 in compression, 19,339 in cryptography, 2,807 in physics simulation, 26,843 in vector SIMD, 131 in the prime sieve and 42,048 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 48% above in integer math, 40% above in floating-point math, 44% above in compression, 68% above in cryptography, 158% above in physics simulation, 73% above in vector SIMD, 96% above in the prime sieve and 86% 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 6534 has 8 physical cores and runs 16 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 3.90 GHz and boosts up to 4.20 GHz.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6534 is a server processor, belongs to the Intel Xeon Gold family, uses the Emerald Rapids architecture and carries the codename Emerald Rapids. It launched in Oct 2023.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6534 has 640 KB of L1 cache, 16 MB of L2 cache and 22.5 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 39.1 MB of cache, or 4.89 MB per core. Each core has 2 MB of private L2 cache.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6534 has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 640 KB, L2 at 16 MB and L3 at 22.5 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 58% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6534 supports DDR5 memory, addresses up to 4 GB of memory and uses 8 memory channels. It does not support DDR4 and LPDDR memory.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6534 does not include integrated graphics, so a discrete graphics card is required for display output.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6534 uses the FCLGA4677 socket, supports PCI Express 5.0 and provides up to 80 PCIe lanes.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6534 has a rated TDP of 195 W.
