Intel Xeon Platinum 8593Q 64c/128t 1.9GHz-3.7GHz 350W (PK8072205511700)

Intel Xeon Platinum 8593Q Processor for Efficient High-Density HPC and Enterprise Compute

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8593Q is a specialized Emerald Rapids processor engineered for datacenter operators who require high-core-count performance with strict control over power efficiency and thermal behavior. With 64 cores and 128 threads, it delivers substantial parallel capability while maintaining a tuning profile optimized for sustained compute, making it ideal for HPC clusters, hyperscale clouds, and enterprise virtualization environments.

Running at a 1.9 GHz base frequency and boosting up to 3.7 GHz, the 8593Q is designed for stability under continuous full-load operation. Its Q-class optimization reduces frequency variability, improving job-scheduling predictability and runtime consistency in scientific, analytic, and distributed compute workloads.

Architecturally, the processor benefits from Emerald Rapids’ redesigned L3 cache subsystem, which improves data locality and minimizes inter-core communication overhead. Workloads such as molecular simulations, graph analytics, machine-learning inference, and large-scale data processing see measurable improvements due to the expanded and more unified last-level cache.

The CPU supports 8-channel DDR5 at up to 5600 MT/s with capacities up to 4 TB per socket, enabling high-performance memory-resident workloads. HPC applications involving finite element analysis, seismic modeling, and computational chemistry benefit from DDR5’s increased bandwidth and improved efficiency under high concurrency.

Connectivity is equally strong: 80 PCIe 5.0 lanes allow deployment of next-generation GPU accelerators, high-speed networking devices, FPGA compute modules, and NVMe storage infrastructures. PCIe 5.0 ensures high-throughput device communication, supporting AI inference systems and heterogeneous data-processing clusters.

With a 350 W TDP and optimized thermal behavior, the 8593Q provides stable performance across prolonged workloads without excessive thermal cycling. This is crucial for multi-day HPC computations and high-density datacenter environments where power and cooling efficiency are essential.

The processor includes Intel’s accelerator suite—AMX for AI matrix tasks, DSA for memory movement optimization, IAA for analytic compression, and QAT for encryption and compression offload. These accelerators reduce core overhead and enhance total system throughput.

Within the Emerald Rapids lineup, the Intel Xeon Platinum 8593Q stands out as a processor engineered for predictable, energy-efficient high-density computing. It is an excellent choice for research institutions, hyperscale datacenters, and enterprises deploying complex AI, analytics, and HPC workloads requiring consistent, scalable performance.
