Processing Power
The Xeon Silver 4510T is a 12-core / 24-thread processor based on the Sapphire Rapids (2023−2024) architecture, manufactured on a Intel 7 nm process node. It reaches a maximum boost clock of 3.7 GHz from a base frequency of 2 GHz— higher boost clocks directly translate to better single-threaded performance and responsiveness in gaming. It carries 30 MB (total) of L3 cache, plus 2 MB (per core) of L2 cache and 80 kB (per core) of L1 cache per core. In the PassMark benchmark (a comprehensive multi-threaded test), it scores 29,119, placing it in the High-End performance tier as a Recent generation product. Geekbench 6 single-core (the most relevant metric for gaming FPS) records 1,800, while multi-core reaches 11,000. Cinebench R23 multi-core (measuring sustained rendering workload performance) scores 16,000.
