Product overview
338-CRQK is a Dell EPYC 9655 2.6GHz 96 Core socket SP5 Server CPU. In a dual-socket board both sockets have to carry the same model, and the BIOS has to be new enough to recognise it. This is the 96-core part. Send the service tag and we will confirm the firmware revision as well as the chip.
If the part is wrong for your platform we will say so and suggest the one that is, which is cheaper for both of us than a return.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
The order is placed against 338-CRQK, not against a description of it, so there is no room for a substitution you did not agree to.
Answered by a human
A quote comes back with the reasoning attached, including the cases where we think you should buy something else.
Compatibility checked
We confirm the part is supported on your platform before it ships, rather than leaving the check to you.
Questions buyers ask about this part
- Is 338-CRQK genuine and is the warranty intact?
- Yes. It ships new in Dell packaging, which is what keeps the warranty and the firmware entitlement valid. Anything we cannot supply that way we tell you about before you order.
- Will 338-CRQK 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.
