Intel® Xeon™ Platinum 8180

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8180 is a server processor with 28 cores and 56 threads, built on the Skylake architecture. It launched in Jul 2017. Clocks run from 2.5 GHz base to 3.8 GHz boost. A 38.5-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 205 W. Notable platform capabilities: AVX-512, Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8180 scores 2,142 in single-core performance and 38,259 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 9,053 for overall performance, 27,867 for productivity performance, 24,898 for creator performance, 51,171 for engineering performance and 15,991 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,366 per core, 683 per thread and 187 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 632. Its performance index is 112, so its overall performance is 12% 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 Platinum 8180 scores 159,728 in integer math, 99,501 in floating-point math, 688,338 in compression, 16,529 in cryptography, 2,254 in physics simulation, 50,600 in vector SIMD, 159 in the prime sieve and 85,549 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 171% above in integer math, 117% above in floating-point math, 202% above in compression, 44% above in cryptography, 107% above in physics simulation, 226% above in vector SIMD, 137% above in the prime sieve and 278% 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 Platinum 8180 has 28 physical cores and runs 56 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 2.50 GHz and boosts up to 3.80 GHz.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8180 is a server processor, belongs to the Intel Xeon Platinum 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 Platinum 8180 has 1.75 MB of L1 cache, 28 MB of L2 cache and 38.5 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 68.3 MB of cache, or 2.44 MB per core. Each core has 1 MB of private L2 cache.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8180 has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 1.8 MB, L2 at 28 MB and L3 at 38.5 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 56% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8180 supports DDR4 memory, addresses up to 768 GB of memory, uses 6 memory channels, runs memory at up to 2,666 MT/s and delivers up to 128.0 GB/s of memory bandwidth. It does not support DDR5 and LPDDR memory.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8180 does not include integrated graphics, so a discrete graphics card is required for display output.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8180 uses the FCLGA3647 socket, supports PCI Express 3.0 and provides up to 48 PCIe lanes.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8180 has a rated TDP of 205 W.
