AMD RX-421ND vs Intel Xeon w5-3423

The AMD RX-421ND is a 4 core processor with a clock frequency of 2.10 GHz (3.40 GHz). The processor can compute 4 threads at the same time. The Intel Xeon w5-3423 clocks with 2.10 GHz (4.20 GHz), has 12 CPU cores and can calculate 24 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 GB of memory in a maximum of 2 memory channels is supported by the AMD RX-421ND, while the Intel Xeon w5-3423 supports a maximum of 4096 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 307.2 GB/s enabled.

The AMD RX-421ND has a TDP of 35 W. The TDP of the Intel Xeon w5-3423 is 220 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The AMD RX-421ND has 2.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 28 nm. The cache of Intel Xeon w5-3423 is at 30.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 10 nm.
