The Intel Xeon Gold 5220R is a 24-core, 48-thread Cascade Lake (2nd Gen Xeon Scalable) processor widely deployed in enterprise server builds, virtualization clusters, cloud nodes and database platforms. For resellers and system integrators, this is a high-turnover SKU for mid-range dual-socket (2S) server configurations, offering a strong core-count-to-price position between standard Gold 52xx parts and the Platinum tier. Units supplied through our wholesale channel are batch-matched wherever possible, and we recommend confirming FCLGA3647 platform compatibility and 150 W thermal provisioning with your build specification before placing volume orders.

Sourcing & Supply Information
Stock is held in trade quantities with ongoing replenishment, and we can typically supply multi-unit orders in matched batches (same stepping and S-Spec) — an important consideration for dual-socket deployments where mixed steppings across paired CPUs can cause instability. Each order ships with batch and serial traceability documentation to support your own warranty obligations to end customers.
All units are covered by our B2B warranty with a structured RMA process: defects reported within the RMA window are handled via replacement or credit, minimizing downtime for integration projects. Products are CE, FCC and RoHS compliant, with documentation available on request for your import and compliance records. Standard lead times are short for stocked volumes; larger projects may require confirmation of allocation.
For system integrators planning 2S builds, we advise ordering paired units from the same batch and matching memory population across all six channels per socket to achieve rated DDR4-2933 throughput. Buyers should also verify motherboard BIOS/firmware support for Cascade Lake before mixing with 1st-gen Xeon Scalable parts, and confirm PCIe generation with the specific board, as this is platform-dependent.
