Overview

The Lenovo 7XG7A06893 is a processor option kit featuring the Intel Xeon Gold 5120 CPU, designed to enhance the computational power of compatible Lenovo ThinkSystem SR550 servers. This 14-core processor offers a 2.2 GHz base frequency and 3.2 GHz boost frequency, making it suitable for demanding workloads in data centers, virtualization environments, and high-performance computing scenarios. Its 19.25 MB L3 cache and support for DDR4-SDRAM up to 2400 MHz ensure efficient data handling and system responsiveness. This kit is for users needing to upgrade or expand the processing capabilities of their existing SR550 infrastructure.

Compatibility

This processor option kit is specifically designed for the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR550 server. It utilizes the LGA 3647 (Socket P) interface, compatible with motherboards supporting Intel's 1st Generation Xeon Scalable processors. Ensure your server's BIOS/UEFI firmware is updated to support the Intel Xeon Gold 5120 processor model for seamless integration.

Installation Notes

Installation requires careful handling of the processor and adherence to specific torque specifications for the LGA 3647 socket mounting mechanism. A cooler is included with this kit, simplifying the thermal management aspect of the upgrade. The processor operates at a Thermal Design Power (TDP) of 105 W, requiring adequate chassis cooling and power delivery from the host server. Ensure proper thermal paste application between the CPU and the included cooler.
