Intel Xeon Silver 4310
The Intel Xeon Silver 4310 is a 12-core, 24-thread processor from the 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable (Ice Lake) family, aimed at entry two-socket servers. It runs at 2.10 GHz base and 3.30 GHz turbo with 18 MB of cache and a 120 W TDP. Intel lists eight memory channels (DDR4-2667), up to 6 TB of memory and 64 PCIe 4.0 lanes. It follows the Silver 4210R from the Cascade Lake generation and was followed by the Silver 4410Y on the DDR5 platform. Buyers use it in low-cost virtualization hosts, file servers and edge boxes where core count matters more than clock speed.

Buying a used Xeon Silver 4310: what to check
Check the LGA 4189 contact pads for scratches or bent pins, and confirm the server board is an Ice Lake generation board, since this chip will not work in LGA 3647 servers. Match the heatsink to the 120 W rating and use two identical CPUs in a two-socket machine.
FAQ
How many cores and what clock speed does the Xeon Silver 4310 have?
It has 12 cores and 24 threads at a 2.10 GHz base clock, up to 3.30 GHz turbo, with 18 MB of cache and a 120 W TDP.
How much memory and PCIe does the Silver 4310 support?
Intel lists eight memory channels of DDR4-2667, up to 6 TB depending on memory type, and 64 lanes of PCIe 4.0. It works in one or two sockets.
Will the Xeon Silver 4310 fit an older Xeon Scalable server?
No. It uses socket LGA 4189 (Intel lists FCLGA4189) and needs a 3rd Gen Ice Lake platform. It does not fit LGA 3647 servers built for Skylake or Cascade Lake.
