RIP intel server cpus.

Obviously a 4 processor server will outperform a single CPU..........

[FloRolf]

Edit, it's not news

 

But it's 4 cpus apparently.

RIP AMD

[PineyCreek]

I love it when the Intel and AMD fans have their arguments.  So productive.

 

That aside, I'm just happy there's competition again since competition breeds innovation and FINALLY Intel's trying again.

Shouldn't 7nm EPYC arrive soon??

[atomburst]

Seems like there may be a leak about a 64 core cpu coming soon from amd. It reportedley scored 12,500 in cinebench multi thread, making it the fastest multi threaded processor yet. I read this article https://wccftech.com/amd-epyc-rome-7nm-64-core-cpu-performance-benchmark-leak/ but im not 100% sure on everything so i wont say much to reduce misinformation. HOwever if this is true, does this somewhat negate the new threadripper launch? I know they may have somewhat different use cases but idk. also, looks like its 7nm seems impressive to me (again i could be wrong so im sorry if i am, just let me know.)

I expected an wccf link, I wasnt disappointed.

NOTHING TO SEE HERE FOLKS, JUST WCCF

@atomburst The thread currently has been moved to the CPU, motherboard and Memory section as it doesn't meet the requires for the Tech News Section. Once updated it may be eligible for reinstating.

this was already posted more or less - threads merged

Breaking news: A 64c/128t CPU performs well in a multithreaded benchmark.

 

I very much doubt anyone will be able to get their hands on one of these for a very long time.

Nah youre right but its good to know that its at least coming!

[LinuxTek]

But a AMD FX-8350 still holds the worlds record for Processor Speed.

im more interested in a delided shot of what on earth is under that heatspreader. 

 

is it 4 dies? is it 9 dies?

 

all we know is 64 COOARRSS

This has gotta be fake, this is more than double a 32 core 4GHz OC 2990WX

This is a 7nm process remember whereas the 2990wx is 12

EPYC uses 8 channels of RAM, TR only 4 and the way the 2990WX CCX work its starved for RAM bandwidth and suffers from latency.

Even the lower clocked 32core 14nm EPYC scores higher when clocked lower than 2990WX with OC.

 

ROME will be also improved over the current gen so there goes another performance jump.

that dual xeon 56 core system Linus has scores around 7.3k with that asus overclocking stuff enabled... 12k is huge

that is true. we would need to see a 20% uplift in performance either through clockspeed or IPC. which isnt entirely unheard of based on what to expect from 7nm

 

edit: we would need more as i just remembered that R15 doesnt scale that well with cores

This is der8auers dual EPYC system Cinebench OC at his office (I think he already broke the record on this screen shot). The RAM was only 2666MHz. So 20% would be +- correct.

Also we know that AMD pushes at least for 2933MHz RAM support so that would be quite a boost for all of those cores.

im hoping its 20% or more uplift this gen. though the unshure bit is how high 7nm is going to clock.
