Verdict

Intel Xeon 6730P

8.7 / 10 Expert Rating

The Intel Xeon 6730P is the standard-bin 32-core Granite Rapids part, a safe default for enterprise virtualization and database hosts that don't need the higher-clocked 6737P/6738P.

Intel Xeon 6740P

8.5 / 10 Expert Rating

The Intel Xeon 6740P is the value entry point into Intel's 48-core Granite Rapids tier, trading some clock speed for a lower price than the 6741P/6747P/6748P.
