The Intel Xeon Gold 5318Y is a 24-core, 48-thread processor from the 3rd-Gen Xeon Scalable (Ice Lake-SP) family, and is one of the most frequently requested SKUs in our enterprise CPU catalog for virtualization hosts, cloud nodes, database servers, and AI inference builds. For resellers and system integrators, this is a high-turnover part with steady demand in 2-socket server builds, and we supply it in tray and boxed configurations suitable for both project deployment and onward retail distribution.
Stock is maintained in batch-controlled quantities so that volume orders ship from the same production lot and stepping, ensuring consistency across large deployments and simplifying warranty tracking for your customers. Each unit is inspected before dispatch, and serial numbers can be logged against your purchase order on request for asset management and RMA traceability.
All units are covered by our standard wholesale warranty with a streamlined RMA process handled directly through our B2B support channel — no consumer-level back-and-forth. Products carry CE, FCC, and RoHS compliance documentation, and full export paperwork is provided for overseas shipments. Typical dispatch after payment confirmation is 1–3 business days for in-stock quantities; larger consolidated orders are quoted with a confirmed lead time.
Before ordering, please confirm platform compatibility: the 5318Y requires an FCLGA4189 (LGA 4189) motherboard specific to the Ice Lake-SP generation, and the 165 W TDP should be factored into chassis thermal planning. For pricing on volume tiers, batch consistency requirements, or scheduled replenishment programs, request a wholesale quote and our procurement team will respond with current stock and tier pricing.

Notes for resellers and integrators
- FCLGA4189 is exclusive to the Ice Lake-SP generation — not compatible with Cascade Lake/Cooper Lake boards or Sapphire Rapids platforms. Verify motherboard and BIOS support on your BOM before committing to project quantities.
- Within the Gold tier, the 5318Y delivers a high core count at a moderate base clock, making it a strong margin item for density-focused virtualization and storage appliance builds positioned between mainstream Gold models and the Platinum line.
- Advise your customers to validate chassis thermal capacity for the 165 W TDP and confirm DDR4-2933 memory modules to realize full 8-channel bandwidth in delivered systems.
