AMD Athlon II X2 235e vs Intel Xeon Platinum 8468H

The AMD Athlon II X2 235e is a 2 core processor with a clock frequency of 2.70 GHz. The processor can compute 2 threads at the same time. The Intel Xeon Platinum 8468H clocks with 2.10 GHz (3.80 GHz), has 48 CPU cores and can calculate 96 threads in parallel.

Processors with the support of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) can process many calculations, especially audio, image and video processing, much faster than classic processors. Algorithms for ML improve their performance the more data they have collected via software. ML tasks can be processed up to 10,000 times faster than with a classic processor.

Graphics (iGPU) integrated into the processor not only enable image output without having to rely on a dedicated graphics solution, but can also efficiently accelerate video playback.

A photo or video codec that is accelerated in hardware can greatly accelerate the working speed of a processor and extend the battery life of notebooks or smartphones when playing videos.

Up to 16 GB of memory in a maximum of 2 memory channels is supported by the AMD Athlon II X2 235e, while the Intel Xeon Platinum 8468H supports a maximum of 4096 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 307.2 GB/s enabled.

The AMD Athlon II X2 235e has a TDP of 45 W. The TDP of the Intel Xeon Platinum 8468H is 330 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The AMD Athlon II X2 235e has 2.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 45 nm. The cache of Intel Xeon Platinum 8468H is at 105.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 10 nm.
