AMD EPYC 9015 vs Intel Xeon D-1553N

In this CPU comparison, we compare the AMD EPYC 9015 and the Intel Xeon D-1553N and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the AMD EPYC 9015 8 core processor released in Q4/2024 with the Intel Xeon D-1553N which has 8 CPU cores and was introduced in Q3/2017.

The AMD EPYC 9015 is a 8 core processor with a clock frequency of 3.60 GHz. The processor can compute 16 threads at the same time. The Intel Xeon D-1553N clocks with 2.30 GHz (2.70 GHz), has 8 CPU cores and can calculate 16 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 6144 GB of memory in a maximum of 12 memory channels is supported by the AMD EPYC 9015, while the Intel Xeon D-1553N supports a maximum of 128 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 38.4 GB/s enabled.

The AMD EPYC 9015 has a TDP of 155 W. The TDP of the Intel Xeon D-1553N is 65 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The AMD EPYC 9015 has 32.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 4 nm. The cache of Intel Xeon D-1553N is at 12.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 14 nm.
