AMD EPYC 7203 vs AMD EPYC 9015

AMD EPYC 7203 or AMD EPYC 9015 - which processor is faster? In this comparison we look at the differences and analyze which of these two CPUs is better. We compare the technical data and benchmark results.

The AMD EPYC 7203 has 8 cores with 16 threads and clocks with a maximum frequency of 3.40 GHz. Up to 4096 GB of memory is supported in 8 memory channels. The AMD EPYC 7203 was released in Q3/2023.

The AMD EPYC 9015 has 8 cores with 16 threads and clocks with a maximum frequency of 3.60 GHz. The CPU supports up to 6144 GB of memory in 12 memory channels. The AMD EPYC 9015 was released in Q4/2024.

The AMD EPYC 7203 has 8 CPU cores and can calculate 16 threads in parallel. The clock frequency of the AMD EPYC 7203 is 2.80 GHz (3.40 GHz) while the AMD EPYC 9015 has 8 CPU cores and 16 threads can calculate simultaneously. The clock frequency of the AMD EPYC 9015 is at 3.60 GHz.

The performance values of the processor's AI unit. The isolated NPU performance is specified here, the total AI performance (NPU+CPU+iGPU) can be higher. Processors with support for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) can process many calculations, especially audio, image and video processing, much faster than classic processors.

The AMD EPYC 7203 or AMD EPYC 9015 has integrated graphics, called iGPU for short. The iGPU uses the system's main memory as graphics memory and sits on the processor's die.

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.

The AMD EPYC 7203 can use up to 4096 GB of memory in 8 memory channels. The maximum memory bandwidth is 204.8 GB/s. The AMD EPYC 9015 supports up to 6144 GB of memory in 12 memory channels and achieves a memory bandwidth of up to 480.0 GB/s.

The thermal design power (TDP for short) of the AMD EPYC 7203 is 120 W, while the AMD EPYC 9015 has a TDP of 155 W. The TDP specifies the necessary cooling solution that is required to cool the processor sufficiently.

The AMD EPYC 7203 is manufactured in 7 nm and has 64.00 MB cache. The AMD EPYC 9015 is manufactured in 4 nm and has a 32.00 MB cache.
