The performance improvement with the new Zen4 TrPRO over the Zen3 TrPRO is very impressive!
My first recommendation for a Scientific and Engineering workstation CPU would now be the AMD Zen4 architecture as either Zen4 Threadripper PRO or Zen4 EPYC for multi-socket systems.
The single socket version of Intel third generation Xeon SP is out, the Ice Lake Xeon W 33xx. This is a much better platform with faster large capacity 8 channel memory and PCIe v4 with plenty of lanes. The new Intel platform is very much like the AMD Threadripper Pro (single socket version of EPYC Rome) so this is the obvious comparison to make. Read on to see how the numerical computing testing went!
Threadripper Pro! AMD has released the long awaited Threadripper Pro CPUs. I was able to spend a (long) day (and night) running compute performance testing on the flagship 64-core TR Pro 3995WX. In this post I’ve got some HPC workload benchmark results from putting this excellent CPU through its compute paces.
