The Intel Xeon Gold 8160 is a high-demand SKU in the resale channel for LGA 3647 platform builds, combining 24 cores and 48 threads with a 150 W thermal profile suited to virtualization hosts, compute clusters, and storage nodes. We supply this processor to resellers, system integrators, and IT procurement teams with batch-consistent stock drawn from verified channel inventory, ensuring matched stepping and specification across volume orders.
Units are shipped tray- or box-packed as specified at order confirmation. Every shipment undergoes outgoing inspection with serial-number recording, and all units are covered by our standard wholesale warranty with a structured RMA process for defective returns. Please confirm lead time and current allocation before committing to project timelines, as availability on this SKU can fluctuate with channel demand.
All supplied units are exported in compliance with applicable CE, FCC, and RoHS requirements, with documentation available on request for customs and tender submissions. For dual-socket deployments, we recommend ordering from the same batch to guarantee SKU and stepping uniformity. Buyers should verify that target motherboards support first-generation Skylake-SP processors and appropriate VRM/cooling for 150 W parts prior to ordering. To check stock, confirm batch consistency, or request a wholesale quote, contact our sales desk.

Good to know
- LGA 3647 motherboards must provide firmware support for Skylake-generation Scalable CPUs; the part is not pin-compatible with later Cascade Lake-SP boards without BIOS validation, so integrators should confirm the supported CPU list of the target platform before deployment.
- Within the first-generation Xeon Scalable stack, the 8160 occupies the Gold tier, delivering higher core counts than Bronze/Silver parts while remaining below Platinum SKUs — a frequent choice for virtualization nodes and AVX-512-capable compute builds in BOM planning.
- For dual-socket systems, pair identical SKUs and populate all six DDR4-2666 channels per CPU to achieve the full 85.6 GB/s memory bandwidth; factor RAM and heatsink sourcing into project budgeting.
