Specification context
The Intel Xeon Platinum 8559C is a Server released in 2025. Recorded specifications include 48 cores and 96 threads, a 117,672 CPU Mark. Use these figures to understand its position, then compare the results with your software and the complete platform.
The 117,672 CPU Mark is a broad overall-performance measure, while the 2,590 single-thread result adds context for less-parallel work. Compare the nearby alternatives on this page and do not treat one score as a verdict for every application.
It uses socket LGA4677. A matching socket is only the first check; confirm the official motherboard CPU-support list, BIOS revision and board power limits.
Verify the system memory type, real power limits and cooling capacity.
FAQ
The main recorded details are 48 cores and 96 threads, a 117,672 CPU Mark. The tables on this page show socket, memory, cache and graphics data when available.
The product name or CPU Mark alone cannot answer that. Check single-thread performance, core count, the target graphics card, gaming resolution and results from the games you play.
Start with LGA4677 motherboards, then confirm the official CPU-support list and required BIOS revision for the exact board before buying.
A structured TDP value is not currently available. Check the manufacturer specification and device power limits.
