Intel® Xeon™ Platinum 8259CL

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8259CL is a server processor with 24 cores and 48 threads. Clocks run from 2.5 GHz base to 3.5 GHz boost. A 35.75-MB L3 cache backs the cores (1.5 MB per core). It supports DDR4 memory. It uses the FCLGA3647 socket. Rated TDP is 210 W. Notable platform capabilities: AVX-512, Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8259CL scores 1,948 in single-core performance and 31,403 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 7,821 for overall performance, 23,139 for productivity performance, 20,778 for creator performance, 40,039 for engineering performance and 13,695 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,308 per core, 654 per thread and 150 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 540. 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.

Workload sub-scores (integer math, floating point, compression, encryption, physics, SIMD, prime sieve and sorting) are not recorded for the Intel Xeon Platinum 8259CL.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8259CL has 24 physical cores and runs 48 logical threads. It does not use a hybrid performance and efficiency core layout. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 2.50 GHz and boosts up to 3.50 GHz.
