True, one AMD CPU has even more cores
Yesterday, AMD introduced the Epyc Bergamo server processors , which offer up to 128 cores. Today, the first independent test results of the top model Epyc 9754 appeared on the Web.
So far there are only results in V-Ray, but they are very impressive. Two such CPUs score over 221,000 points in the benchmark. For comparison, a pair of 96-core Epyc 9654 Genoa is already gaining only about 148,000 points. And the most impressive thing is that the 128-core Epyc 9754 scores 132,500 points, which is not far behind the two 96-core counterparts, and this is at a lower frequency and less cache!
Two 64-core 9554 Genoas score almost exactly the same (128,500 points).
Here it is, the modern power of AMD.
Compared to Intel CPUs, two 60-core Xeon 8490H Sapphire Rapids score only about 93,000, which is the same score as a single 96-core Epyc 9654 and slightly more than two 64-core Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5995WX scores.
That is, according to the total of 128 cores in the new Xeon, albeit in two CPUs, they show a result almost one and a half times lower than one 128-core Epyc 9754, and almost 2.5 times lower than two such CPUs.
Yes, this is just one test, and it is impossible to judge the situation as a whole, but against the backdrop of recent statements by Intel about the multiple superiority of its Sapphire Rapids over Epyc Genoa, the situation looks very interesting.
