AMD EPYC 9755 / 9575F / 9965 Benchmarks Show Dominating Performance

The EPYC Turin processors have lept over the Granite Rapids flagship processor with the TensorFlow ResNet-50 performance on the CPU.

The EPYC 9005 series performance with TensorFlow was also leading for power efficiency and value.

The AMD EPYC 9005 series with AVX-512 now on a 512-bit data path makes for great CPU-based AI inferencing.

The main strength of the Xeon 6 Granite Rapids besides memory intensive workloads where MRDIMMs can help is for workloads able to leverage Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX). With Intel's OpenVINO AI toolkit being a leading example for demonstrating AVX usage, the Xeon 6980P processors were leading with some AI models. At the extremes a single Xeon 6980P could outperform two EPYC Turin processors.

The AMD EPYC Turin processors were enjoying lower latency than the Intel CPUs with some models.

And with some OpenVINO AI models the AMD EPYC 9005 series did manage to outperform the Xeon 6980P Granite Rapids processors.

With OpenVINO and other CPU-based AI workloads is one of the areas where Granite Rapids is most competitive if the software can leverage AMX.

The lower pricing on the EPYC 9005 series does help it maintain a lead in performance-per-dollar even for OpenVINO.
