HPE AMD Epyc 7502P KIT for DL345 GEN10+ - P39735-B21

HPE P39735-B21 AMD EPYC 7502P Processor Kit for ProLiant DL345 Gen10+

Overview

The P39735-B21 is HPE's factory-configured AMD EPYC 7502P processor kit designed for direct installation into the ProLiant DL345 Gen10+ platform. This is a CPU option kit — sourced and validated for the DL345 Gen10+ — that addresses compute density and memory bandwidth requirements in single-socket server deployments. Weighing 0.45 lb, the kit ships ready to install without additional hardware sourcing. If you're expanding compute capacity in an existing DL345 Gen10+ chassis or populating a new build, this is the HPE-matched component to use rather than sourcing a retail CPU that may lack the platform-specific firmware and thermal validation HPE qualifies for this system.

Compatibility

This kit is validated exclusively for the HPE ProLiant DL345 Gen10+ server. Do not attempt installation in earlier DL345 generations or other ProLiant families — socket and firmware compatibility are platform-specific. The DL345 Gen10+ is a single-socket AMD EPYC-based 1U/2U rack server; this processor kit is the matched component for that chassis. Confirm your system's current iLO firmware and BIOS revision against HPE's compatibility matrix before installation, as processor support often requires a minimum firmware baseline. For full rack server build-outs, verify memory configuration aligns with AMD EPYC 7502P's supported DIMM population rules — channel utilization directly affects memory bandwidth and, by extension, workload throughput.

Installation Notes

CPU kit installation on ProLiant platforms requires an HPE-approved processor installation tool to avoid socket pin damage — do not attempt bare-hand socket seating without the correct tool. Apply thermal interface material (TIM) as directed by HPE's service guide for the DL345 Gen10+; re-use of existing TIM from a prior processor is not recommended. Torque specifications for the processor carrier and heatsink fasteners are documented in the DL345 Gen10+ Maintenance and Service Guide available from HPE's support portal. Static discharge precautions are mandatory given the component value and socket sensitivity.
