found this in a e-recycle bin in a sealed vacuum pack in my office. After some research I figured its an Engineering Sample from Intel for the Xeon 6th gen Granite Rapids.What can I do with it?

It should be a drop-in cpu for any sapphire rapids compatible motherboard, but if the bios can boot it is another story.
It may not perform like a production CPU, as clocks on ESes are often lower than production samples as defects get ironed out.
Either way, be careful with those! Somebody was not supposed to do that if they’re working CPUs. Even if they’re dead, they should probably stay internal.
