Model specifications
| Architecture / generation | Skylake-W, Xeon W-2100 workstation generation (2017) |
|---|---|
| Exact part | Intel Xeon W-2123 |
| Package / socket | FC-LGA2066 (LGA2066 / Socket R4) |
| Compute and clocks | 4 cores / 8 threads; 3.60 GHz base; up to 3.90 GHz Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 |
| Cache / power | 8.25 MB Intel Smart Cache; 120 W TDP |
| Memory | 4-channel DDR4-2666; ECC support; up to 512 GB maximum (board and DIMM type dependent) |
| Expansion | 48 PCI Express 3.0 lanes from CPU |
| Board compatibility | Single-socket C422/LGA2066 workstation board validated for Xeon W-2100, such as Supermicro X11SRA-F; check exact CPU support, board revision and BIOS before purchase. Not interchangeable with the later W-2200 by socket alone. |
Compatibility and service
- Use an LGA2066 C422 workstation board with explicit Xeon W-2123 support and the required BIOS; chipset/socket match alone is insufficient.
- Populate four memory channels with board-qualified DDR4-2666 ECC UDIMMs or other specifically validated memory; capacity is platform dependent.
- Provide cooling and power delivery rated for the 120 W processor and verify cooler clearance/mounting.
- No integrated graphics; provide a discrete GPU or other display adapter.
