New benchmarks of AMD's upcoming Milan-X flagship, the EPYC 7773X CPU, have been submitted to the OpenBenchmarking software suite.
AMD EPYC 7773X Milan-X CPUs With Up To 1.6 GB of Total CPU Cache Benchmarked In Dual Socket Server Platform
The benchmarks were spotted within the OpenBenchmarking database and consist of two AMD EPYC 7773X Milan-X CPUs which were recently announced by the red team during their keynote comprising of data center innovations. The dual CPUs were tested on the Supermicro H12DSG-O-CPU motherboard which features dual LGA 4096 SP3 sockets. Additional specs on the platform included 512 GB of DDR4-2933 (16 x 32 GB) system memory, a 768 GB DAPUSTOR storage system and performance was evaluated on the Ubuntu 20.04 OS.
AMD EPYC 7773X Milan-X Flagship CPU Specifications:
The flagship AMD EPYC 7773X will rock 64 cores, 128 threads and feature a maximum TDP of 280W. The clock speeds will be maintained at 2.2 GHz base and 3.5 GHz boost while the cache amount will drive up to an insane 768 MB. This includes the standard 256 MB of L3 cache that the chip features so essentially, we are looking at 512 MB coming from the stacked L3 SRAM which means that each Zen 3 CCD will feature 64 MB of L3 cache. That's an insane 3x increase over the existing EPYC Milan CPUs.
