Dell PowerEdge R7715
What Is the Dell PowerEdge R7715?
The R7715 is the single-CPU member of Dell’s 17th-generation PowerEdge family on AMD’s EPYC 9005 “Turin” (Zen 5) platform. Even though it has one processor, that CPU exposes the full 12-channel DDR5 memory fabric, up to 160 cores, eight PCIe Gen5 x16 slots and OCP 3.0 networking — so a single socket carries workloads that needed two older CPUs a generation ago. Dell launched the R7715 in April 2025 alongside the dual-socket R7725 and the 1U R6715.
The 2U chassis supports up to 40 front E3.S Gen5 NVMe drives (or 12 × 3.5″ / 24 × 2.5″ layouts), up to three double-width accelerators, redundant Titanium-class PSUs up to 3200 W (including 277 V AC/HVDC and -48 V DC options), and iDRAC10 management with Dell’s Multi-Vector Cooling 2.0. It is a current platform: parts, firmware and the manufacturer warranty are all first-line.

Why Choose a Single-Socket 17G Server?
A single EPYC 9005 Turin CPU is genuinely large — up to 160 cores and 12 DDR5 channels. For most database, virtualization and HCI workloads that is already more compute than a dual-socket 15th-generation server. Going single-socket on the R7715 gives you three practical advantages:
- Lower per-core software cost. Microsoft Windows Server and SQL Server, Oracle Database and most hypervisor/backup products are licensed per physical core. With one socket you licence only the cores in one CPU — not a second CPU you may never fully use.
- One CPU to buy, cool and power. Fewer licensed cores, fewer DIMM-population trade-offs and a simpler, lower-idle power envelope, with the same Gen5 I/O and E3.S density as the dual-socket chassis.
- No NUMA crossing. Every core and all 24 DIMMs sit on one processor, so there is no cross-socket memory hop — a cleaner topology for licensing and for latency-sensitive database workloads.
If you genuinely need up to 384 cores or the extra memory bandwidth of two Turin CPUs, the dual-socket R7725 is the step up; the R7715 is the value-engineered flagship of the 17G line.

Controllers, power & management. PERC H365i / H965i / H975i internal RAID, HBA465e external and BOSS-N1 redundant boot. Redundant PSUs from 800 W to 3200 W, including 277 V AC/HVDC and -48 V DC for hyperscale-style and carrier DCs. iDRAC10 and Multi-Vector Cooling 2.0 keep fan power and noise tuned to the actual configuration.
R7715 vs R7725 and R7615
The three are easy to confuse. The R7715 and R7725 are both 17th-gen Turin servers in the same 2U family — the difference is one socket versus two. The R7615 is the previous 16th-gen single-socket model on EPYC 9004 (Genoa/Zen 4).

| Best for | Flagship single-socket, lowest per-core licence cost | Maximum dual-socket cores & bandwidth | Value single-socket Zen 4 |
R7715 vs R7725: pick the R7725 only when you truly need up to ~384 cores and dual-socket DDR5-6400 bandwidth; you then licence two CPUs. The R7715 keeps the same 2U Gen5 I/O, 40 E3.S bays and three-GPU capability while licensing one socket.
R7715 vs R7615: stepping up from 16G adds Zen 5 cores (160 vs 128), DDR5-5200 (vs 4800), 6 TB (vs 3 TB), eight Gen5 slots (vs five) and the newer PERC H975i / iDRAC10 generation. If you want the current single-socket platform with the longest support runway, choose the R7715. For a 1U single-socket Turin build, see the R6715 in the full AMD EPYC model list; for current 16G value, our dual-socket R7625 and other EPYC servers are in stock.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Dell PowerEdge R7715?
The Dell PowerEdge R7715 is Dell’s 17th-generation single-socket 2U rack server on one AMD EPYC 9005 “Turin” (Zen 5) CPU. It supports up to 160 cores in that single processor, 24 DDR5-5200 DIMMs up to 6 TB, up to 40 E3.S Gen5 NVMe drives, eight PCIe Gen5 x16 slots and up to three double-width GPUs. We supply it brand-new and factory-sealed with a 3-year manufacturer warranty.
Is the R7715 single-socket or dual-socket, and how many cores does it have?
The R7715 is single-socket: it takes exactly one AMD EPYC 9005 Turin processor, with up to 160 cores on that CPU. The dual-socket 17G model is the R7725 (up to 192 cores per socket × 2). Despite having one CPU, the R7715 still provides 12 memory channels, 24 DIMMs and up to eight Gen5 x16 slots.
R7715 vs R7725 — which should I choose?
Choose the R7725 if you genuinely need up to ~384 cores and dual-socket DDR5-6400 bandwidth and will licence both CPUs. Choose the R7715 if you want the same 2U Gen5 platform, 40 E3.S bays and three double-width GPUs while buying and licensing a single socket — the R7715 has up to 160 cores and 6 TB, which covers most virtualization, database and HCI workloads at a lower per-core software cost.
R7715 vs R7615 — is the 17th-generation upgrade worth it?
The R7615 is the 16th-gen single-socket server on EPYC 9004 (Zen 4): up to 128 cores, 12 DDR5-4800 DIMMs to 3 TB and up to five PCIe slots. The R7715 moves to Zen 5 Turin with up to 160 cores, 24 DDR5-5200 DIMMs to 6 TB, eight PCIe Gen5 slots, newer PERC H975i storage controllers and iDRAC10. For the longest support life and highest single-socket performance, the R7715 is the current choice.
How does a single-socket server reduce software licensing cost?
Windows Server, SQL Server, Oracle Database and many hypervisor/backup products are licensed per physical core. On the R7715 you licence only the cores in one CPU instead of two, while one Turin CPU still delivers up to 160 cores, 12 memory channels and full Gen5 I/O. There is also no cross-socket NUMA traffic. Teams that don’t fully use a second socket therefore cut licence spend without giving up flagship I/O.
What GPUs, storage and power options does the R7715 support?
The R7715 supports up to three double-width (450 W-class) plus six 75 W single-width GPUs, up to 40 front E3.S Gen5 NVMe drives (or 12 × 3.5″ / 24 × 2.5″ layouts; no rear bays), eight PCIe Gen5 x16 slots plus OCP 3.0, and redundant PSUs from 800 W to 3200 W including 277 V AC/HVDC and -48 V DC. Exact options depend on backplane, riser and PSU and are confirmed on your order.
Is the R7715 new, what is the warranty and how do I order?
The R7715 we supply is brand-new, current production, shipped factory-sealed with a 3-year manufacturer warranty. Each build is assembled, firmware-baselined and stress-tested before dispatch and ships with an inspection report. Send your target configuration, quantity, destination and incoterm and we reply within one business day with a configured build, firm channel price and lead time. Full terms are on the warranty page.
