About the AM383A

The HP AM383A (AM383A - HP 2.13GHz 6.4GT/s QPI 24MB Cache Socket LGA1248 Intel Itanium 9540 8-Core Processor) is a Intel Unboxed Processors component engineered for sustained enterprise-class workloads. This part addresses common procurement scenarios where exact-match replacement, capacity expansion, or new-build deployment is required. Technical specifications include clock speed of 2.13 GHz, bus speed of 6.4 GT/s, cache of 24MB, socket of LGA1248. Common deployment scenarios include in-place server upgrades from prior Xeon/EPYC generations, matched-pair second-socket installation, hot-spare provisioning, and refurbished rebuild programs for older platforms. Pro Disk Network maintains the AM383A in our enterprise inventory and verifies each unit against manufacturer datasheet specifications prior to listing. New stock ships factory-sealed where available; refurbished units are tested under load before dispatch and ship with a 90-day Pro Disk Network functional warranty. Dispatch in 1–3 business days; free standard ground shipping on US orders over $150.

Quick Answer: What socket does the AM383A use?

Confirm the socket against your motherboard's CPU support list - Intel Xeon Scalable spans LGA 3647 (1st/2nd gen), LGA 4189 (3rd gen Ice Lake), and LGA 4677 (4th/5th gen Sapphire/Emerald Rapids). A BIOS update is often required for newer steppings even on the same socket. Email sales@prodisknetwork.com with your motherboard model for a compatibility check.

How fast does the AM383A ship?

Pro Disk Network usually dispatches the AM383A in 1–3 business days. Multi-pallet projects requiring crating ship within 2 business days. International shipping (Canada, Mexico, EU, APAC) takes 3-7 business days via DHL Express or FedEx International Priority.

Common Use Cases for AM383A

The AM383A is deployed by US enterprises, MSPs, government, and education customers across multiple infrastructure scenarios. Below are the most common deployment patterns Pro Disk Network sees in real-world orders.

  • Citrix VDI Pool — Frequency-sensitive — prefer high-clock 16–18 core SKUs over high-core-count parts to maintain user-perceived snappiness.
  • Kubernetes / Tanzu Workers — Higher core count amortises better across many small Pods. EVC mode planning matters for live-migrate parity.
  • AI Inference Host — Sapphire Rapids and Emerald Rapids include AMX silicon for INT8 inference acceleration — meaningful uplift for BERT, ResNet, and LLM serving.

What is the AM383A?

The AM383A is a HP server-class processor with clock speed 2.13 GHz and bus speed 6.4 GT/s, manufactured by HP. Pro Disk Network ships this part new and certified-refurbished from our US warehouse with dispatch in 1–3 business days, backed by a 30-day return guarantee.

Pros & Cons of AM383A

Pros

  • Lower cost than the manufacturer channel for refresh cycles
  • Matched-pair option for dual-socket consistency
  • Sequential serial numbers on bulk orders for cluster builds

Cons

  • Server-grade thermal load — confirm cooler rating before installation
  • Multi-socket validation requires identical stepping
  • Not designed for consumer single-socket boards

Frequently Asked Questions about AM383A

Is the AM383A a genuine HP part?
Yes. Pro Disk Network sources every AM383A as factory-original HP inventory. New units arrive sealed in OEM packaging; refurbished units are pulled from decommissioned HP servers, surface-tested, and re-warranted by Pro Disk Network for 90 days.
What socket does the AM383A use?

Pro Disk Network Buyer’s Guide: Intel Unboxed Processors

Socket Compatibility, EVC Mode, and BIOS Revision Planning

For Hyper-V clusters, Live Migration compatibility is more forgiving but still benefits from matched CPU stepping across cluster nodes. For Kubernetes / Tanzu, CPU heterogeneity is acceptable because pods are stateless, but resource-request planning becomes harder when nodes have different core counts.

AI Workloads, AMX, and the Inference Performance Story

Late-generation Intel Xeon processors (Sapphire Rapids, Emerald Rapids, Granite Rapids) include AMX (Advanced Matrix Extensions) silicon that accelerates INT8 inference workloads dramatically. For the AM383A, if AMX is present, BERT-base inference throughput improves 4-6× over the previous generation; LLM inference (Llama 2 7B INT8 quantised) improves 2-3×. AMX does not require code changes when used through libraries that already support it (oneAPI, ONNX Runtime, OpenVINO).
