Intel Xeon w5-3425 vs AMD EPYC 9274F

The Intel Xeon w5-3425 is a 12 core processor with a clock frequency of 3.20 GHz (4.60 GHz). The processor can compute 24 threads at the same time. The AMD EPYC 9274F clocks with 4.05 GHz (4.30 GHz), has 24 CPU cores and can calculate 48 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 4096 GB of memory in a maximum of 8 memory channels is supported by the Intel Xeon w5-3425, while the AMD EPYC 9274F supports a maximum of 6144 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 460.8 GB/s enabled.

The Intel Xeon w5-3425 has a TDP of 270 W. The TDP of the AMD EPYC 9274F is 320 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The Intel Xeon w5-3425 has 30.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 10 nm. The cache of AMD EPYC 9274F is at 280.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 5 nm.
