The Intel Xeon Gold 6246R (3.40 GHz base / 4.10 GHz turbo, 16 cores / 32 threads) is a frequency-optimized Cascade Lake Refresh processor that our wholesale channel supplies in volume to resellers, system integrators and IT procurement teams. It is a strong candidate for rebuild and upgrade projects targeting database servers, trading platforms, analytics clusters and virtualization hosts, where high per-core clocks and AVX-512 throughput matter more than maximum core count.
Stock is held in batch-lot quantities with matched steppings available on request, so integrators can maintain consistency across multi-unit deployments and staged rollouts. Before placing an order, please confirm your platform requirements: FCLGA3647 socket compatibility, BIOS support for Cascade Lake Refresh SKUs, and sufficient VRM and cooling headroom for the 205 W TDP. Tray and boxed packaging variants can be mixed within a single purchase order subject to availability.
All units are sourced through audited supply channels and ship with standard export documentation. Products comply with CE, FCC and RoHS requirements for cross-border resale. Warranty coverage and RMA handling are managed centrally through our B2B support desk: defective units are processed under a defined return window with replacement or credit issued against your account, minimizing downtime for your service commitments.
Lead times for in-stock SKUs are typically short, with same-week dispatch on standard quantities; larger configurations or specific stepping requirements may require a quoted production or allocation window. For current batch availability, volume price breaks and delivery schedules, request a wholesale quote and our sales team will respond with a tailored offer.

Notes for resellers and integrators
- Confirm platform readiness before deployment: FCLGA3647 motherboard support, BIOS/firmware support for Cascade Lake Refresh parts, and cooling/VRM budget for the 205 W TDP.
- The 6246R occupies the frequency-optimized end of the Gold range — position it for latency-sensitive workloads where lower-clock, higher-core SKUs underperform.
- Specify tray vs. boxed packaging, stepping/revision requirements, and single-batch allocation at quotation stage to ensure lot consistency across your project.
- Certifications (CE / FCC / RoHS) and export documentation are provided for compliant cross-border resale.
Wholesale & Procurement Notes
- MOQ negotiable depending on SKU and batch availability.
- Tiered volume pricing — request a quote for project-sized quantities.
- Typical lead time: 3–7 business days for in-stock lots; longer for allocated or specific-stepping orders.
- Packing & shipping: tray or boxed retail packaging; anti-static bulk packing, consolidated pallets and express/air freight options available.
- RMA window: standard 12-month limited warranty with centralized RMA processing; defective units replaced or credited after inspection.
