Description

HP Intel Xeon Gold 4th Gen 6448Y 32-Core Processor Upgrade — LGA-4677, 2.10 GHz Base, 4.10 GHz Turbo

Power your HP servers with the HP Intel Xeon Gold (4th Gen) 6448Y Dotriaconta-core processor upgrade. Designed for dense data-center workloads, virtualization, and mission-critical applications, this 32-core, 64-thread powerhouse delivers sustained multi-threaded performance, reliability, and scalability. Built on a modern 10 nm process and engineered for headless operation, it pairs a generous core count with impressive clock speeds to accelerate everything from large-scale databases and containerized workloads to virtualization platforms and HPC tasks. Whether you’re expanding capacity, boosting virtualization density, or future-proofing your HP environment, this upgrade provides the horsepower your workloads demand.

  • Massive multi-core performance for today and tomorrow: With 32 cores and 64 threads, this HP Xeon Gold upgrade handles highly parallel workloads with ease. Virtualization hosts, large-scale databases, in-memory analytics, and multi-user compute tasks benefit from the exceptional thread count, enabling more virtual machines, containers, and parallel processes to run concurrently without bottlenecks.
  • High clock speeds to accelerate demanding applications: A strong 2.10 GHz base frequency pairs with a turbo capable of up to 4.10 GHz, delivering responsive performance for single-threaded tasks while maintaining robust throughput during peak load. This balance helps shorten query times, speed up transactional workloads, and improve overall system responsiveness under heavy demand.
  • Advanced 10 nm process for efficiency and density: Built on a cutting-edge 10 nm node, the HP Xeon Gold 6448Y focuses on performance-per-watt and improved thermal efficiency. In dense data-center deployments, this translates to cooler operation, lower energy costs, and greater headroom for sustained workloads without compromising performance.
  • Trusted reliability for critical workloads: With a 225 W Thermal Design Power rating and 64-bit processing capability, this Xeon Gold upgrade is engineered for reliability in data centers, virtualization clusters, and enterprise workloads. Expect predictable performance, robust error handling, and consistent uptime for long-running tasks, core to service-level agreements and business continuity.
  • Seamless upgrade with LGA-4677 socket and headless design: The Socket LGA-4677 interface is designed for straightforward processor upgrades on compatible HP motherboards and server boards, often without any soldering required. The absence of integrated graphics makes this CPU ideal for headless server deployments, where GPUs are either dedicated elsewhere or unnecessary for the workload, freeing up PCIe lanes for storage, networking, or accelerators.

How to Install HP Xeon Gold 6448Y Processor Upgrade

  • Power down the HP server, unplug all power sources, and discharge static electricity before handling components.
  • Open the chassis and locate the CPU socket (LGA-4677). If a cooling solution is installed, carefully remove it following the system’s service guide to access the processor socket.
  • If upgrading from an older CPU, remove the existing processor and inspect the socket for any bent pins or debris. Clean the socket area as needed to ensure a clean install.
  • Align the HP Xeon Gold 6448Y with the socket keying and gently seat the processor into the LGA-4677 socket. Apply even downward pressure to ensure the processor is fully seated and locked in place, then reattach the cooling solution with the appropriate mounting hardware and thermal interface material if required by your setup.
  • Power on the system and enter the BIOS/UEFI. Load defaults, verify CPU recognition, enable any necessary virtualization features (if applicable), and install any recommended firmware or microcode updates. After updating, monitor temperatures and system stability during the first run to ensure proper cooling and operation.

Frequently asked questions

  • Q: Is this processor compatible with my HP server?

    A: This CPU is designed for HP systems that use the LGA-4677 socket and support 4th Gen Xeon Gold processors. For exact compatibility, confirm socket type and BIOS support with HP’s official compatibility guides for your server model.

  • Q: Does this Xeon upgrade include integrated graphics?

    A: No. This processor has no integrated graphics, making it ideal for headless servers where graphics are not required or where GPUs are added separately for compute workloads.

  • Q: What workloads are best suited for this CPU?

    A: It excels in virtualization hosting, dense container environments, large-scale databases, data analytics, and HPC-style workloads that demand high parallelism and strong per-core performance.

  • Q: What is the significance of the 10 nm process?

    A: The 10 nm process improves efficiency and density, enabling higher core counts and improved thermal performance in HP servers, which helps reduce cooling costs while maintaining strong performance under load.

  • Q: How should I ensure reliability after installation?

    A: Update the server BIOS and firmware to the latest levels, verify memory configuration is supported by your platform, and monitor CPU temperatures with approved hardware monitoring tools to ensure fans and cooling are adequate for sustained workloads.
