AMD EPYC 9554P vs Intel Xeon Gold 6454S

In this CPU comparison, we compare the AMD EPYC 9554P and the Intel Xeon Gold 6454S and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the AMD EPYC 9554P 64 core processor released in Q4/2022 with the Intel Xeon Gold 6454S which has 32 CPU cores and was introduced in Q1/2023.

The AMD EPYC 9554P is a 64 core processor with a clock frequency of 3.10 GHz (3.75 GHz). The processor can compute 128 threads at the same time. The Intel Xeon Gold 6454S clocks with 2.20 GHz (3.40 GHz), has 32 CPU cores and can calculate 64 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 9554P, while the Intel Xeon Gold 6454S supports a maximum of 4096 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 307.2 GB/s enabled.

The AMD EPYC 9554P has a TDP of 360 W. The TDP of the Intel Xeon Gold 6454S is 270 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The AMD EPYC 9554P has 320.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 5 nm. The cache of Intel Xeon Gold 6454S is at 60.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 10 nm.
