AMD EPYC 4245P vs AMD EPYC Embedded 4345P: Comparison

EPYC 4245P vs EPYC Embedded 4345P: the boost clock difference

The first real difference is boost clock: EPYC 4245P Up to 5.4 GHz against EPYC Embedded 4345P 5.5 GHz. They differ on core count too, 6 cores on the EPYC 4245P versus 8 cores on the EPYC Embedded 4345P. Thread count is not the same on both, 12 threads on the EPYC 4245P versus 16 threads on the EPYC Embedded 4345P. There is a split on base clock as well, 3.9 GHz on the EPYC 4245P versus 3.8 GHz on the EPYC Embedded 4345P.

Who each one is for

Buy the EPYC 4245P for datacenter and cloud compute and virtualization-dense server workloads, though it is not the pick for consumer desktop builds and single-threaded latency-sensitive workloads on lower core-count SKUs. The EPYC Embedded 4345P suits industrial and embedded system designs and long-lifecycle networking and edge-compute deployments, though it is not built for consumer desktop or gaming builds and DIY PC upgrades.

What EPYC 4245P and EPYC Embedded 4345P have in common

Everything else lines up. Tdp, l3 cache, pcie lanes, socket and multi-socket support read the same on both, so those are not worth weighing.

    Which one should you pick?

    Choose 4245P if you want the higher L3 cache (32 MB vs 32 MB) and the higher PCIe lanes (28 lanes vs 28 lanes).

    Choose 4345P if you already have it on hand or find it at a lower price.
