AMD EPYC 7663 vs Intel Atom C3338R

In this CPU comparison, we compare the AMD EPYC 7663 and the Intel Atom C3338R and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the AMD EPYC 7663 56 core processor released in Q1/2021 with the Intel Atom C3338R which has 2 CPU cores and was introduced in Q2/2020.

The AMD EPYC 7663 is a 56 core processor with a clock frequency of 2.00 GHz (3.50 GHz). The processor can compute 112 threads at the same time. The Intel Atom C3338R clocks with 1.80 GHz (2.20 GHz), has 2 CPU cores and can calculate 2 threads in parallel.

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.

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 4096 GB of memory in a maximum of 8 memory channels is supported by the AMD EPYC 7663, while the Intel Atom C3338R supports a maximum of 128 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 29.9 GB/s enabled.

The AMD EPYC 7663 has a TDP of 240 W. The TDP of the Intel Atom C3338R is 10.5 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The AMD EPYC 7663 has 256.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 7 nm. The cache of Intel Atom C3338R is at 4.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 14 nm.
