Dell Intel Xeon Gold 5115 2.4GHz 10.4GT/s 14MB Cache 10 Core 20 Threads Computer Processor

The Dell 78RT8 is an Intel Xeon Gold 5115 processor that brings 10 physical cores, 20 processing threads, and a 2.4 GHz base frequency to Dell PowerEdge C6420 servers. It offers 13.75 MB of shared L3 cache and a 10.4 GT per second interconnect, giving administrators a dependable foundation for database engines, virtualization hosts, and general-purpose compute nodes.

Organizations that run mixed workloads will appreciate how easily this processor balances throughput and efficiency. Web applications, departmental SQL clusters, and large virtual machine farms can sit side by side on the same host while each application receives consistent multi-threaded performance.

Intel Virtualization Technology with Extended Page Tables reduces the overhead that comes with mapping guest memory, which helps virtual machines start faster and run smoother. Enhanced SpeedStep adjusts clock speed and voltage in real time to cut power draw during low-demand periods, while integrated thermal monitoring protects the system when traffic peaks.

Dell qualifies the 78RT8 for the PowerEdge C6420 chassis, so IT teams can swap it into existing nodes without firmware guesswork. Whether you are expanding a cluster or replacing a failed CPU, this part lets you keep your infrastructure uniform and easy to manage.
