HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen12 Processors
Genuine HPE-qualified Intel Xeon 6 processors for the HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen12, new and refurbished, alongside heat sink kits. Like its 2U sibling, the DL360 Gen12 takes both Efficient-core (E-core) and Performance-core (P-core) Xeon 6 families in one or two sockets.
DL360 Gen12 Processor Specifications
- Family: Intel Xeon 6 — E-core and P-core lines, one or two sockets
- P-core range: up to the 86-core 6787P (2.0GHz, 350W), with high-clock options like the 8-core 6507P (3.5GHz) and 16-core 6725P (3.7GHz)
- E-core models: high-density cores-per-watt options for scale-out workloads
- Memory support: the CPU sets DDR5 behavior — 6500P/6700P-series models run 2-DIMM-per-channel banks at 6000 MT/s
- Cooling: heat sink kits matched to CPU TDP and the 1U thermal envelope
Processors ship without heat sinks. Order the heat sink kit for your configuration, keep both installed CPUs the identical model, and note the CPU series sets fully-populated memory speed (6000 vs 5200 MT/s at 2 DIMMs per channel).
Which Intel Xeon 6 processors does the DL360 Gen12 support?
| Processor | Type | Cores | Base clock | TDP |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Intel Xeon 6507P | P-core | 8 | 3.5GHz | 150W |
| Intel Xeon 6725P | P-core | 16 | 3.7GHz | 235W |
| Intel Xeon 6747P | P-core | 48 | 2.7GHz | 330W |
| Intel Xeon 6787P | P-core | 86 | 2.0GHz | 350W |
| Intel Xeon 6714P | P-core | 8 | 4.0GHz | 195W |
| Intel Xeon 6710E | E-core | 64 | 2.4GHz | 205W |
| Intel Xeon 6780E | E-core | 144 | 2.2GHz | 330W |
Two 86-core 6787P processors put 172 P-cores in 1U; the E-core line pushes density further for cloud-native fleets. High clocks with low core counts (6507P, 6714P) suit per-core database licensing. Processors ship without heat sinks — add the kit matching your configuration.
Choosing the Right DL360 Gen12 Processors
- Pick the core type for the workload: P-core for databases and licensed software; E-core for scale-out and containerized services.
- Installed processors must match — buy pairs of the same model, and match the existing CPU exactly when adding a second.
- Heat sinks are separate parts matched to TDP and the 1U thermal envelope.
- Check the CPU's memory behavior: 6500P/6700P-series models keep fully-populated banks at 6000 MT/s — pair with memory accordingly.

DL360 Gen12 Processors FAQ
What processors does the HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen12 support?
Intel Xeon 6 - both Efficient-core models (up to 144 cores) and Performance-core models (up to the 86-core 6787P), in one- or two-socket configurations.
What is the maximum core count of the DL360 Gen12?
With P-core processors, 172 cores (two 86-core 6787P CPUs); E-core models push physical core density higher still for scale-out workloads.
What is the difference between Xeon 6 E-core and P-core processors?
E-core (Efficient-core) models maximize cores per watt for scale-out and cloud-native workloads; P-core (Performance-core) models deliver stronger per-core performance for databases and licensed software, with clocks up to 4.0GHz on the 6714P. The DL360 Gen12 supports both; installed CPUs must be the same model.
Do DL360 Gen12 processors come with heat sinks?
No - heat sinks are separate kits matched to the CPU's TDP and the 1U chassis. Order one kit per processor.
Can the DL360 Gen12 run with one processor?
Yes - single-processor configurations are fully supported, exposing 16 DIMM slots. A second processor doubles memory slots to 32 and enables the second OCP slot and additional PCIe connectivity.
