Intel Core i3-3115C vs AMD EPYC 8224PN

Intel Core i3-3115C or AMD EPYC 8224PN - 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 Intel Core i3-3115C has 2 cores with 4 threads and clocks with a maximum frequency of 2.50 GHz. Up to 32 GB of memory is supported in 2 memory channels. The Intel Core i3-3115C was released in Q3/2013.

The AMD EPYC 8224PN has 24 cores with 48 threads and clocks with a maximum frequency of 3.00 GHz. The CPU supports up to GB of memory in 6 memory channels. The AMD EPYC 8224PN was released in Q3/2023.

The Intel Core i3-3115C has 2 CPU cores and can calculate 4 threads in parallel. The clock frequency of the Intel Core i3-3115C is 2.50 GHz while the AMD EPYC 8224PN has 24 CPU cores and 48 threads can calculate simultaneously. The clock frequency of the AMD EPYC 8224PN is at 2.00 GHz (3.00 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 Intel Core i3-3115C or AMD EPYC 8224PN 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 Intel Core i3-3115C can use up to 32 GB of memory in 2 memory channels. The maximum memory bandwidth is 21.3 GB/s. The AMD EPYC 8224PN supports up to GB of memory in 6 memory channels and achieves a memory bandwidth of up to 230.4 GB/s.

The thermal design power (TDP for short) of the Intel Core i3-3115C is 25 W, while the AMD EPYC 8224PN has a TDP of 120 W. The TDP specifies the necessary cooling solution that is required to cool the processor sufficiently.

The Intel Core i3-3115C is manufactured in 22 nm and has 4.00 MB cache. The AMD EPYC 8224PN is manufactured in 5 nm and has a 64.00 MB cache.
