Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
The AMD EPYC 7551, based on the Zen architecture and known under the codename Naples, was a significant processor for server applications. Manufactured using the 14-nm process, this chip laid an important foundation. A particularly strong feature was the high number of 32 cores and 64 threads.

Even then, this configuration provided considerable parallelizable computing power for complex tasks. We see it as one of the processors that had a lasting impact on the server market. In addition, the AMD EPYC 7551 impressed with a generous L3 cache of 64 MB. This contributed significantly to fast data availability.

The memory connection was also well thought out. With a maximum memory bandwidth of 171 GB/s, the AMD EPYC 7551 efficiently processed demanding workloads. The support for PCIe 3.0 also offered versatile expansion options. It was a solid choice for data centers and large corporate networks looking for a reliable and powerful base.
  • High core and thread count
  • Generous L3 Cache
  • Good memory bandwidth
