HPE Intel Xeon-Silver 4310 2.1GHz 120W 12 Core Processor

The HPE P36921-B21 is a 12 core Intel Xeon Silver 4310 processor designed for HPE server platforms. It starts at 2.1 GHz, delivering steady throughput for everyday business applications while keeping power draw in check.

With 18 MB of L3 cache, the processor holds frequently accessed data close to the cores, reducing latency during database queries, virtualization tasks, and cloud workloads. A 120 watt thermal design power helps data center managers stay within energy and cooling budgets, an advantage in edge racks, branch offices, and smaller server rooms.

The chip supports DDR4 memory running up to 2667 MT/s, so systems remain responsive even when user demand rises. Because this model carries HPE part number P36921-B21, installation into compatible HPE ProLiant servers is straightforward, whether you are refreshing existing hardware or building a new deployment.

IT teams managing virtual desktop pools, file and print services, or departmental analytics will find this processor a practical way to modernize infrastructure without overspending. Use a single unit for compact servers, or populate both sockets in a dual socket chassis when additional cores are needed.
