With Intel's OSPRay software for example it's well optimized for AVX-512 and can scale up to the 176 vCPUs available with the HBv4 series, making its raw performance and value a no-brainer for those carrying out rendering workloads in the cloud.

👁 7-Zip Compression benchmark with settings of Performance Per Core, Test: Compression Rating. HBv4 was the fastest.

👁 Timed Node.js Compilation benchmark with settings of Performance Per Core, Time To Compile. HC was the fastest.

While the HB-series are tailored for HPC workloads, the HBv4 performance impressed outside of those key areas.

👁 oneDNN benchmark with settings of Performance Per Core, Harness: Recurrent Neural Network Training, Data Type: bf16bf16bf16, Engine: CPU. HC was the fastest.
