Intel Xeon Gold 5512U vs Intel Xeon D-1523N

In this CPU comparison, we compare the Intel Xeon Gold 5512U and the Intel Xeon D-1523N and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the Intel Xeon Gold 5512U 28 core processor released in Q4/2023 with the Intel Xeon D-1523N which has 4 CPU cores and was introduced in Q3/2017.

The Intel Xeon Gold 5512U is a 28 core processor with a clock frequency of 2.10 GHz (3.70 GHz). The processor can compute 56 threads at the same time. The Intel Xeon D-1523N clocks with 2.00 GHz (2.60 GHz), has 4 CPU cores and can calculate 8 threads in parallel.

The performance values of the processor's AI unit. The isolated NPU performance is specified here, the total AI performance (NPU+CPU+iGPU) can be higher. Processors with support for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) can process many calculations, especially audio, image and video processing, much faster than classic processors.

Graphics (iGPU) integrated into the processor not only enable image output without having to rely on a dedicated graphics solution, but can also efficiently accelerate video playback.

A photo or video codec that is accelerated in hardware can greatly accelerate the working speed of a processor and extend the battery life of notebooks or smartphones when playing videos.

Up to 4096 GB of memory in a maximum of 8 memory channels is supported by the Intel Xeon Gold 5512U, while the Intel Xeon D-1523N supports a maximum of 128 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 38.4 GB/s enabled.

The Intel Xeon Gold 5512U has a TDP of 185 W. The TDP of the Intel Xeon D-1523N is 45 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The Intel Xeon Gold 5512U has 52.50 MB cache and is manufactured in 10 nm. The cache of Intel Xeon D-1523N is at 6.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 14 nm.
