128C/128T · 2.6 GHz · 225 W

The Xeon 6756E is a 128-core member of Intel's Xeon 6700E series (Sierra Forest), built entirely from efficient E-cores without Hyper-Threading. Introduced in June 2024, it pairs a 1.8 GHz base and 2.6 GHz all-core turbo with a relatively low 225 W TDP, giving it the best performance per watt among the higher-core-count 6700E models for scale-out cloud and container workloads on one- and two-socket LGA 4710 servers.
