Lenovo ThinkSystem Intel Xeon Platinum 8156 4C 105W 3.6GHz Processor for SD530

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8156 is built for speed, not for numbers: 4 cores at a 3.6 GHz base clock, with a 105 W TDP. Lenovo lists it as 7XG7A06224, under feature code AWEV, for the ThinkSystem and System x SD530.

Software that is limited by one fast thread, or that is licensed per core, is the target here. Four cores keep the license count small and the clock high. It does not suit virtualization with a crowd of guests, and it keeps the power draw light.
