Intel® Xeon™ Gold 6548N

The Intel Xeon Gold 6548N is a server processor with 32 cores and 64 threads, built on the Emerald Rapids architecture. It launched in Oct 2023. Clocks run from 2.8 GHz base to 4.1 GHz boost. A 60-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.0 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 250 W. Notable platform capabilities: AMX (Advanced Matrix Extensions), AMX, AVX-512, Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Xeon Gold 6548N scores 2,844 in single-core performance and 64,783 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 13,574 for overall performance, 46,091 for productivity performance, 40,750 for creator performance, 90,696 for engineering performance and 24,728 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 2,024 per core, 1,012 per thread and 259 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 859. Its performance index is 168, so its overall performance is 68% 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 6548N scores 238,141 in integer math, 195,208 in floating-point math, 1,028,948 in compression, 52,013 in cryptography, 4,975 in physics simulation, 87,350 in vector SIMD, 370 in the prime sieve and 102,055 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 304% above in integer math, 325% above in floating-point math, 351% above in compression, 353% above in cryptography, 356% above in physics simulation, 463% above in vector SIMD, 452% above in the prime sieve and 351% 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 6548N has 32 physical cores and runs 64 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 2.80 GHz and boosts up to 4.10 GHz.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6548N 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 6548N has 160 KB of L1 cache, 4 MB of L2 cache and 60 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 64.2 MB of cache, or 2.00 MB per core.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6548N has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 160 KB, L2 at 4 MB and L3 at 60 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 94% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6548N 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 6548N does not include integrated graphics, so a discrete graphics card is required for display output.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6548N uses the FCLGA4677 socket, supports PCI Express 5.0 and provides up to 80 PCIe lanes.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6548N has a rated TDP of 250 W.
