Xeon Platinum 8336C vs Xeon Platinum 8358P
The Xeon Platinum 8336C and the Xeon Platinum 8358P are both server processors we supply tested from Hong Kong, and the figures below are the same ones published on each product page. They share 1 listed specification row and separate on tdp, cache, memory, so the decision is less about "which is better" and more about which of those differences your platform or workload can actually use.
Nothing on this page is a price: component pricing moved too fast in 2026 for a printed figure to stay honest, so both are quoted on request against confirmed stock with the date the quote holds until. If you are replacing a part, send the platform and we will confirm the population before you commit.

Where they differ
- ·Xeon Platinum 8336C is the better figure for power draw (230 W typical, per CPU (PassMark record and public Ice Lake Xeon list agree) vs 240 W / 10 nm).
- ·Cache — Xeon Platinum 8336C: 48MB (public Ice Lake Xeon list); not confirmed by an Intel document; Xeon Platinum 8358P: 48 MB.
- ·Memory — Xeon Platinum 8336C: 8-channel DDR4-3200 per the public Ice Lake Xeon list; Intel publishes no datasheet for this SKU; Xeon Platinum 8358P: DDR4-3200, 8 channels.
- ·Xeon Platinum 8358P lists the higher base clock (2.60 GHz base / 3.40 GHz max turbo vs 2.3 GHz (PassMark CPU Benchmark record and the public Ice Lake Xeon list agree) base / 3.5 GHz (both sources). No all-core turbo figure is published anywhere we could reach, so none is printed here. max).
What they share
Cores / Threads: 32 cores / 64 threads per CPU.
Decision
Which one to buy
For processors the useful split is throughput versus frequency. More cores per socket wins on virtualisation density, parallel batch work and multi-tenant hosting, where the scheduler can keep every core busy; higher base and boost clocks win where the workload is latency-sensitive or licensed per core, and the extra cores would sit idle. Check the socket and the platform's memory generation before anything else: a CPU is only useful in a board that takes it, and the two models above are interchangeable only when the socket matches. TDP also sets the cooling and power budget per node.
Choose the Xeon Platinum 8336C if
- ·You need lower power draw — the Xeon Platinum 8336C lists 230 W typical, per CPU (PassMark record and public Ice Lake Xeon list agree) against 240 W / 10 nm on the Xeon Platinum 8358P.
- ·Memory: 8-channel DDR4-3200 per the public Ice Lake Xeon list; Intel publishes no datasheet for this SKU
Choose the Xeon Platinum 8358P if
- ·Memory: DDR4-3200, 8 channels
- ·You need more base clock — the Xeon Platinum 8358P lists 2.60 GHz base / 3.40 GHz max turbo against 2.3 GHz (PassMark CPU Benchmark record and the public Ice Lake Xeon list agree) base / 3.5 GHz (both sources). No all-core turbo figure is published anywhere we could reach, so none is printed here. max on the Xeon Platinum 8336C.

Frequently asked questions
How much do the Xeon Platinum 8336C and the Xeon Platinum 8358P cost?
We do not publish prices for either: DRAM and CPU pricing moved too fast in 2026 for a printed figure to stay honest. Send the quantity, the platform and the condition you want and we quote both against confirmed stock, with the date the figure holds until.
What is the main difference between the Xeon Platinum 8336C and the Xeon Platinum 8358P?
TDP (Xeon Platinum 8336C: 230 W typical, per CPU (PassMark record and public Ice Lake Xeon list agree); Xeon Platinum 8358P: 240 W / 10 nm); Cache (Xeon Platinum 8336C: 48MB (public Ice Lake Xeon list); not confirmed by an Intel document; Xeon Platinum 8358P: 48 MB); Memory (Xeon Platinum 8336C: 8-channel DDR4-3200 per the public Ice Lake Xeon list; Intel publishes no datasheet for this SKU; Xeon Platinum 8358P: DDR4-3200, 8 channels).
Can I use the Xeon Platinum 8336C and the Xeon Platinum 8358P in the same system?
No. They use different sockets (FCLGA4189 / LGA 4189 vs see spec), so they need different server platforms and cannot share a board.
Which one should I buy?
Buy the one whose strong points match the job: see the "Choose" section above. If you are replacing an existing part, send the platform or the old part number and we will confirm compatibility before you order.
What condition are they in, and do you ship worldwide?
Both are supplied tested with a 1-year written warranty. Condition is stated line by line before you order — new, decommissioned pull or OEM tray — and we ship worldwide from the Hong Kong warehouse with full export documentation, typically 3–7 days by air.
