Performance of amd epyc rome vs. intel cascade lake in 2s
Table of contents:
- AMD EPYC Rom4 64 core / 128 thread - Intel Cascade Lake AP 48 core / 96 thread tested in Cinebench in 2S configuration
- AMD EPYC Rome (128 cores and 256 threads) - 12861 points in Cinebench
- Intel Cascade Lake AP (96 cores and 192 threads) - 12482 points at Cinebench
It seems that benchmarks for server and data center CPU performance are the highlights these days, as most consumer products have already been released. The latest leaks come from the HKEPC Facebook page where a moderator has posted the results of not one but two data center CPUs. These are AMD EPYC Rome and Intel Cascade Lake AP processors.
AMD EPYC Rom4 64 core / 128 thread - Intel Cascade Lake AP 48 core / 96 thread tested in Cinebench in 2S configuration
We know that Intel and AMD aim to launch their next-generation server CPUs in 2019. AMD has already publicly unveiled EPYC Rome processors based on the 7nm process node. His presentation last month gave us a nice list of details and the design of the 7nm Chiplet along with the 14nm I / O die, coupled in one package.
On the other hand, Intel presents its new Cascade Lake AP (Advanced Performance) processors that uses an MCP (Multi-Chip Package) design. Each of those CPUs would contain 48 cores and 96 threads along with cache enhancements, though Intel would build on the existing 14nm ++ node.
AMD EPYC Rome (128 cores and 256 threads) - 12861 points in Cinebench
Now that we get to the performance tests, we first have to talk about AMD EPYC Rome. The platform is a 2S design, which means that there are two CPUs together that provide 128 cores and 256 threads (64 cores and 128 threads per CPU) in total. The CPU has a 1.80 GHz base clock and completes the test in less than 5 seconds with a reported score of 12861 points. This is quite impressive considering that the score was obtained two months ago and that a lot of optimizations are being done in EPYC Rome.
Intel Cascade Lake AP (96 cores and 192 threads) - 12482 points at Cinebench
On the Intel Cascade Lake AP side. Once again, two CPUs were tested as the Cascade Lake-AP platform is designed as a 2S only solution. The platform had 96 cores and 192 threads (48 cores and 96 threads per CPU). The clock speed was set to 2.50 GHz (base) and reached a score of 12, 482 points. Once again, the result looks very good if we take into account the lower number of cores and threads, managing to almost match AMD's proposal.
Intel and AMD seem to be very close to each other, with AMD showing an impressive return to the market for high-performance servers like never before. Intel, on the other hand, is doing its best with its MCP design to remain competitive, even though its chips are being manufactured with an outdated node versus AMD's 7nm.
