Dell 6P0FP Xeon PLATINUM 8280 28C 2.7GHz | Used

The Xeon Platinum 8280 was the top of Intel’s Scalable line for the Cascade Lake generation — 28 cores per socket of genuine datacenter silicon. These pulled units make 14G-generation PowerEdge and ProLiant servers seriously powerful compute hosts at a tiny fraction of the original ~$10k/socket list price.

Platinum Class, Budget Reality

Platinum-tier Xeons carry the full feature set: 6-channel DDR4-2933 memory per socket, 48 PCIe 3.0 lanes, and up to 8-socket interconnects. Twin 8280s in a server give you 56 cores and 112 threads — virtualization consolidation, simulation, rendering farms and analytics all benefit.

• ESXi / Proxmox hosts — core density that slashes per-VM licensing and hardware cost
• Render & simulation nodes — 56 threads per chassis of deterministic throughput
• Database servers — big caches and 6-channel memory bandwidth for OLTP

Match Your Platform

LGA3647 (Socket P) — compatible with Dell 14G (R740/R640/FC640…), HPE Gen10 (DL380/DL360…) and equivalent Xeon Scalable platforms. Match stepping with your existing CPUs when mixing in an occupied socket, and confirm your heatsink/VRM are rated for 205W.
