Comparison Angle
The Xeon Gold 6238M builds on the strengths of the Xeon Gold 6138 by offering more cores (22 vs. 20), higher turbo frequency, and increased memory capacity. Compared to the previous Skylake-SP generation, the Cascade Lake-SP family brings improved performance, security enhancements, and support for larger memory configurations (via M variant). This makes the 6238M ideal for data-heavy enterprise applications where both performance and capacity are critical.
