Intel Xeon Silver 4514Y vs AMD EPYC 9825

In this CPU comparison, we compare the Intel Xeon Silver 4514Y and the AMD EPYC 9825 and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the Intel Xeon Silver 4514Y 16 core processor released in Q4/2023 with the AMD EPYC 9825 which has 144 CPU cores and was introduced in Q4/2024.

The Intel Xeon Silver 4514Y is a 16 core processor with a clock frequency of 2.00 GHz (3.40 GHz). The processor can compute 32 threads at the same time. The AMD EPYC 9825 clocks with 2.20 GHz, has 144 CPU cores and can calculate 288 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 4096 GB of memory in a maximum of 8 memory channels is supported by the Intel Xeon Silver 4514Y, while the AMD EPYC 9825 supports a maximum of 6144 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 480.0 GB/s enabled.

The Intel Xeon Silver 4514Y has a TDP of 150 W. The TDP of the AMD EPYC 9825 is 400 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The Intel Xeon Silver 4514Y has 30.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 10 nm. The cache of AMD EPYC 9825 is at 288.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 4 nm.
