Intel Xeon Platinum 8581V vs AMD EPYC 8534PN

Intel Xeon Platinum 8581V or AMD EPYC 8534PN - 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 Xeon Platinum 8581V has 60 cores with 120 threads and clocks with a maximum frequency of 3.90 GHz. Up to 4096 GB of memory is supported in 8 memory channels. The Intel Xeon Platinum 8581V was released in Q4/2023.

The AMD EPYC 8534PN has 64 cores with 128 threads and clocks with a maximum frequency of 3.10 GHz. The CPU supports up to GB of memory in 6 memory channels. The AMD EPYC 8534PN was released in Q3/2023.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8581V has 60 CPU cores and can calculate 120 threads in parallel. The clock frequency of the Intel Xeon Platinum 8581V is 2.00 GHz (3.90 GHz) while the AMD EPYC 8534PN has 64 CPU cores and 128 threads can calculate simultaneously. The clock frequency of the AMD EPYC 8534PN is at 2.00 GHz (3.10 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 Xeon Platinum 8581V or AMD EPYC 8534PN 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 Xeon Platinum 8581V can use up to 4096 GB of memory in 8 memory channels. The maximum memory bandwidth is 307.2 GB/s. The AMD EPYC 8534PN 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 Xeon Platinum 8581V is 270 W, while the AMD EPYC 8534PN has a TDP of 175 W. The TDP specifies the necessary cooling solution that is required to cool the processor sufficiently.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8581V is manufactured in 10 nm and has 300.00 MB cache. The AMD EPYC 8534PN is manufactured in 5 nm and has a 128.00 MB cache.
