New system architectures support Intel® Xeon® 6 with P-Cores, providing up to 136 PCIe 5.0 lanes and expanding possibilities for high-speed networking, GPUs, and storage devices
SAN JOSE, Calif., March 27, 2025 -- Super Micro Computer, Inc. (SMCI), a Total IT Solution Provider for AI/ML, HPC, Cloud, Storage, and 5G/Edge, is announcing the availability of new single-socket servers capable of supporting applications that required dual-socket servers for a range of data center workloads. By leveraging a single-socket architecture, enterprises and data center operators can reduce initial acquisition costs, ongoing operational costs such as power and cooling, and reduce the physical footprint of server racks compared to previous generations of systems based on older processors.
"We are entering a new era of compute where energy-efficient and thermally optimized single-socket architectures are becoming a viable alternative to traditional dual-processor servers," said Charles Liang, president and CEO of Supermicro. "Our new single-socket servers support 100% more cores per system than previous generations and have been designed to maximize acceleration, networking, and storage flexibility. Supporting up to 500-watt TDP processors, these new systems can be configured to fulfill a wide range of workload requirements."

"We are excited to continue our long-standing collaboration with Supermicro to deliver high-performance server solutions," said Karin Eibschitz Segal, corporate vice president & interim GM, Intel Data Center & AI Group. "Our expanded portfolio of single-socket systems, optimized with the latest Intel Xeon 6 processors with P-cores, offers increased core counts, faster memory support, and up to 136 PCIe 5.0 lanes—delivering performance previously only achievable with dual-socket platforms."
"As businesses continue to prioritize efficiency, flexibility, and cost effectiveness for their infrastructure, single-socket servers are emerging as a compelling solution," said Kuba Stolarski, research vice president for IDC's Computing Systems practice. "These single-socket servers provide an optimal balance of performance, scalability, and total cost of ownership needed for a wide range of workloads, from edge computing to virtualization, making them an ideal choice for companies looking to scale efficiently in an evolving market."
Supermicro's single-socket server systems can be configured to handle a variety of workloads, including EDA, FSI, cloud computing, storage, content delivery, virtualization, AI, networking, and edge computing. Deploying a single-socket architecture has several key advantages over multi-processor systems, including, the absence of the CPU-CPU interconnect, which frees up more of the processor's I/O capacity for PCIe expansion and avoids latency issues related to Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA). The enhanced PCIe lane availability compared to previous generations means more and faster networking, storage, and acceleration devices can be added to each system, increasing overall system compute capacity and rack density.
Customers can expect significant benefits when deploying single-processor servers to run their applications. For many cloud and storage-centric workloads, performance that previously required two CPUs per system can be achieved or even exceeded with a single processor. By deploying single-socket servers, customers can realize cost savings not only on the initial acquisition of the servers, but also due to reduced power consumption, lower thermal load reducing cooling requirements, and the need for less physical space to house the data center infrastructure.
