Differences

Reasons to consider the AMD EPYC 7401P

  • CPU is newer: launch date 4 year(s) 7 month(s) later
  • Processor is unlocked, an unlocked multiplier allows for easier overclocking
  • 8 more cores, run more applications at once: 24 vs 16
  • 32 more threads: 48 vs 16
  • A newer manufacturing process allows for a more powerful, yet cooler running processor: 14 nm vs 32 nm
  • 3x more L1 cache, more data can be stored in the L1 cache for quick access later
  • 4x more L3 cache, more data can be stored in the L3 cache for quick access later
  • Around 52% better performance in PassMark - Single thread mark: 1724 vs 1133
  • 2.3x better performance in PassMark - CPU mark: 28293 vs 12377
