Product overview
The IBM Xeon Gold 5218 2.3GHz 16 Core socket FCLGA3647 Server CPU is supplied under part number 01PE884. Licensing is often counted per core, so the cheapest chip that fits the socket is not always the cheapest chip to run. This part is 16-core. Tell us what the host is licensed for and we will factor that into the recommendation.
Quote requests are answered within 48 business hours, with availability confirmed before you raise a purchase order rather than after.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
01PE884 is what is quoted and 01PE884 is what ships; where an alternate code is genuinely the same part we name it rather than swap it silently.
Compatibility checked
We confirm the part is supported on your platform before it ships, rather than leaving the check to you.
Matched pairs for dual-socket
Where both sockets have to carry the same model we quote the pair, not the single chip.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is 01PE884 genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes, new and sealed, with the IBM warranty and the firmware update path intact. We do not sell refurbished stock as new, and we do not source grey-market units.
Will 01PE884 work in my server?
Send the service tag. We check the platform's supported-CPU list and the BIOS revision it requires, and where the board is dual-socket we confirm what is in the other socket. A stepping the firmware does not recognise will not post.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes, POs from qualified organisations, net terms on approval, and banded pricing once the quantity is worth banding. Send the number and we will price it properly.

Specifying a system, not just the part?
On a training or inference node the host CPU is sized around the accelerators it feeds, not chosen on its own.
