The AMD EPYC 9684X Genoa-X did manage to still maintain the lead with Altair's OpenRadioss with the Chrysler Neon 1M model.
There were some performance anomalies observed during the testing... Such that with a few select workloads performing abnormally slow... Much slower than every other CPU tested. Intel also observed this behavior and is investigating.
Presumably some issue at the kernel or firmware/microcode level in these select cases or perhaps where the compiler is going awry with Granite Rapids. But it just ended up being a few different software workloads affected out of all the tests run.
