HPE ProLiant DL325 Gen10 Plus v2 Processors
Genuine HPE-qualified AMD EPYC processors for the HPE ProLiant DL325 Gen10 Plus v2, new and refurbished, alongside the matching heat sink and fan kits. This is a single-socket server built on the 3rd Generation EPYC 7003 Series — 8 to 64 cores in one socket, 120W to 280W, and up to 4TB of memory per processor.
DL325 Gen10 Plus v2 Processor Specifications
- Sockets: one — a 1P, 1U design HPE positions as 2P performance at 1P TCO
- Range: EPYC 7003 Series from the 8-core 72F3 at 3.7GHz base to the 64-core 7763 at 2.45GHz, with wattages from 120W to 280W
- 7003X large-cache models: 7773X at 64 cores, 7573X at 32, 7473X at 24, and 7373X at 16 — all with 768MB of cache
- Frequency-optimized F parts: 72F3, 73F3, 74F3, and 75F3 all reach 4.0GHz or better maximum frequency
- Memory support: every listed EPYC supports up to 4TB and DDR4-3200 across 8 channels
- Cooling: the DL325 Gen10 Plus v2 High Performance heat sink kit, plus the Max Performance Fan Kit for any 280W processor
There is no second socket. The DL325 Gen10 Plus v2 is a 1P server, so all 16 DIMM slots, both riser slots, and the OCP slot hang off the single processor. Any 280W part — the 64-core 7763 and 7773X included — also requires the Max Performance Fan Kit.
Which processors does the DL325 Gen10 Plus v2 support?
| Tier | Examples | Cores | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Entry | 7203P at 120W, 7303P at 130W | 8–16 | Low-power edge and infrastructure roles |
| Frequency-optimized (F) | 72F3, 73F3 at 3.5GHz, 74F3 at 3.2GHz, 75F3 | 8–32 | Per-core licensed databases |
| Mainstream | 7313P, 7413, 7443P, 7513, 7543P | 16–32 | General virtualization and consolidation |
| High core count | 7643, 7663, 7713P, 7763 | 48–64 | Maximum density in 1U |
| 7003X large cache | 7373X, 7473X, 7573X, 7773X | 16–64 | 768MB of cache for cache-sensitive work |
A single 7763 or 7773X puts 64 cores in 1U at 280W — the point where the Max Performance Fan Kit becomes mandatory. The QuickSpecs lists the High Performance heat sink kit as a separate cooling option, so plan the heat sink alongside any CPU change.
Choosing the Right DL325 Gen10 Plus v2 Processor
- One socket, one processor: there is no second-CPU upgrade path here — all 16 DIMM slots, both riser slots, and the OCP slot hang off the single processor.
- Cores versus clock: the F-series parts hold 4.0GHz-class maximum frequency at 8 to 32 cores, which keeps per-core licensing sane; the 7763 and 7713P trade clock for 64 cores.
- Plan cooling with the CPU: any 280W processor requires the Max Performance Fan Kit, which cannot be installed alongside the Standard Fan Kit.
- Mind the 7xx2 memory footnote: the QuickSpecs processor table also lists 7xx2 parts, and those cannot run 2 DIMMs per channel at 3200 MT/s — they drop to 2933 MT/s.
- Memory follows the processor: DDR4-3200 across 8 channels with up to 4TB supported — see DL325 Gen10 Plus v2 memory.

DL325 Gen10 Plus v2 Processors FAQ
What processors does the HPE ProLiant DL325 Gen10 Plus v2 support?
One 3rd Generation AMD EPYC 7003 Series processor, from the 8-core 72F3 to the 64-core 7763, at wattages from 120W to 280W. That includes the 7003X large-cache parts - 7373X, 7473X, 7573X, and 7773X - which carry 768MB of cache.
Can the DL325 Gen10 Plus v2 take two processors?
No. It is a single-socket 1P server, which HPE describes as delivering 2P performance at 1P TCO. All 16 DIMM slots, the PCIe riser slots, and the OCP slot are driven by that one processor.
What is the maximum core count of the DL325 Gen10 Plus v2?
64 cores, from either the EPYC 7763 at 2.45GHz base and 280W, the 7713P at 2.0GHz and 225W, or the 7773X at 2.2GHz and 280W with 768MB of cache.
Do DL325 Gen10 Plus v2 processors need a specific heat sink or fan kit?
The QuickSpecs lists a DL325 Gen10 Plus v2 High Performance heat sink kit as a separate cooling option, and pre-configured models ship one processor with that heat sink. Any 280W processor also requires the Max Performance Fan Kit.
Which DL325 Gen10 Plus v2 processor is best for per-core software licensing?
The frequency-optimized F-series parts. The 72F3 at 8 cores, 73F3 at 16, 74F3 at 24, and 75F3 at 32 all reach 4.0GHz or better maximum frequency, giving maximum performance per licensed core.
What is the difference between the EPYC 7003 and 7003X processors here?
Cache. The 7003X models - 7373X, 7473X, 7573X, and 7773X - carry 768MB of cache against 32MB to 256MB on the standard 7003 parts, at the cost of lower base frequencies at the same core count.
