The Threadripper 3990X was the fastest still with various scientific workloads, such as Parboil with its Distance-Cutoff Coulombic Potential test on a biomolecular model.
With the CloverLeaf hydrodynamics benchmark was another 3990X win.
With the various Rodinia workloads, the Threadripper 3990X continued dominating.
Under NAMD, the Xeon Platinum 8280 2P did deliver slightly better performance but keep in mind that server was enjoying six-channels of memory per CPU.
Similarly, the Threadripper 3990X performed close to the dual Xeon Platinum 8280 at the much higher price point with the LAMMPS molecular dynamics simulator.
