Initial Benchmarks Of The AMD EPYC 7F32 Performance On Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
With the HPCG benchmark that serves best for stressing the internal interconnect performance of the system, the EPYC 7F32 came out faster than the EPYC 7262 similar 8c/16t part as expected and similar to the Xeon Gold 5220R.
With NAMD the performance boost out of the EPYC 7F32 compared to the EPYC 7262 becomes much more clear for this demanding CPU benchmark. The EPYC 7262 8c/16t processor has a 3.2GHz base clock and 3.4GHz boost clock compared to the 3.7/3.9GHz of the EPYC 7F32.
As outlined in the EPYC 7F52 article, these 7Fx2 parts really help close the gap against Intel Xeon Cascade Lake (Refresh) in per-core performance. In these single-threaded cryptography benchmarks, it's quite easy to see the difference compared to the rest of the Rome processors.
Or in other cases, only expanding AMD's lead compared to Xeon Cascade Lake.
The Dav1d workload is another one where these high frequency parts perform very well.
