Intel Xeon Platinum 8460Y+

40C/80T · 3.7 GHz · 300 W

The Xeon Platinum 8460Y+ is a 40-core 4th Gen Xeon Scalable (Sapphire Rapids) processor for two-socket servers. The Y suffix marks support for Intel Speed Select Technology - Performance Profile, which lets operators switch between 40 cores at 2.0 GHz, 36 cores at 2.1 GHz and 32 cores at 2.3 GHz within the same 300 W TDP, and the plus sign means one QuickAssist, Dynamic Load Balancer, Data Streaming and In-Memory Analytics accelerator device is enabled by default. AVX-512 and Intel AMX accelerate AI inference.

Notes
Microsoft lists 4th Generation Xeon Scalable processors as supported for Windows 11 versions 24H2 and 25H2; Microsoft has not published a separate list for 26H2, so the 25H2 status is carried over. The Windows 10 22H2 list stops at 3rd Generation Xeon Scalable. Server deployments typically run Windows Server or enterprise Linux; Sapphire Rapids is supported by mainstream Linux distributions.
