P36929-B21, HPE Intel Xeon Processor, 32-core/2.2GHz/205W

The HPE P36929-B21 is a high-performance server processor accessory built for modern enterprise and data center workloads. Based on the Intel Xeon Platinum 8352Y, it targets customers who need strong multi-core performance, high memory capacity, and reliable virtualization support in HPE Server platforms. With 32 cores and Intel Hyper-Threading Technology, this CPU is ideal for dense virtual machine hosting, private cloud, and large databases in Asia, Europe, Africa, and North America. A base clock of 2.2 GHz with Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 up to 3.9 GHz helps keep critical applications responsive under peak demand, while the 48 MB L3 cache reduces latency for data-intensive tasks such as analytics and ERP systems.

For distributors and small to mid-size integrators, the P36929-B21 offers a clear path to standardize on a proven Intel Xeon Platinum platform within the HPE ecosystem. The 10 nm lithography and 205 W TDP provide a balanced power and performance profile that fits well into existing rack power plans and thermal designs. With support for up to 4.5 TB of DDR4-3200 memory across 8 channels, this processor can consolidate multiple legacy servers into fewer, more capable systems, helping reduce footprint and simplify management.

The LGA 4189 socket and up to 64 PCI Express lanes give system designers and end users the flexibility to attach high-speed NVMe storage, GPU accelerators, and advanced network adapters. Built-in Intel VT-x and Intel VT-d virtualization technologies make it easier to isolate workloads, improve security, and optimize I/O performance in virtualized or containerized environments. Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology helps tune power consumption dynamically, which is important for large deployments where energy cost and cooling capacity must be controlled.

For end users planning new deployments or upgrades, the HPE P36929-B21 provides a solid platform for virtualization clusters, line-of-business applications, and mixed workloads. The 64-bit instruction set, Intel 64 support, and broad operating system compatibility help protect IT investments over the full lifecycle of the server. Whether you are building a new data center node, expanding an HPE Server cluster, or refreshing aging hardware, this processor can deliver consistent, predictable performance.
