Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
The AMD EPYC 7F72, a processor from the Rome family, proved to be a remarkable solution for servers upon its introduction. Manufactured using the advanced 7 nm process, it offered high energy efficiency from the start. This was a major advancement at the time and remains significant for data centers today.

Particularly noteworthy is its large Level 3 Cache of 192 MB. This huge cache supports applications that often utilize large amounts of data. It ensures significantly improved performance in databases, virtualization, or even big data analytics. Comprehensive support for PCIe 4.0 is another important aspect.

This enables fast connectivity of NVMe SSDs, network cards, and other accelerator cards. Server operators thus benefit from high data bandwidth and low latencies. The AMD EPYC 7F72 was designed to handle demanding tasks in data centers. The underlying Zen 2 architecture ensures a solid foundation for diverse workloads.

We have found that it still performs well in many environments today. It reliably delivers its computing power for critical applications there.
  • 7 nm manufacturing and high energy efficiency
  • Large 192 MB Level 3 Cache
  • Support for PCIe 4.0
