Can I replace an 8 Core Xeon processor with a 18 Core Xeon Processor?

Yes! There is no problem as long as you use the correct CPU! 18-Core Xeon W-2191B

Now before you do this consider the clocking Vs threads issue!

• 3.2 GHz 8-Core Xeon W-2140B
• 3.0 GHz 10-Core Xeon W-2150B
• 2.5 GHz 14-Core Xeon W-2170B
• 2.3 GHz 18-Core Xeon W-2191B

A single threaded process will run faster on your current system and much slower on the 18 core! As the clocking has a large effect here.

But!! A multi-threaded application can leverage the multiple cores of the CPU, but you do need meter how many cores makes sense given your work load.

I often find people go crazy going with too large a chip when a middle version would make more sense!

So if your multi-threaded work load is using more than 2/3rds of your work day then consider the bigger chip, I would still see if the 14 core will be enough. If it’s less than 1/2 of your work day maybe the 10 core is enough.

Just like Goldilocks and the three Bears! There is a balance! Not going too small or too big!
