AMD EPYC 7303 vs AMD EPYC Embedded 735P: Comparison
EPYC 7303 vs EPYC Embedded 735P boost clock compared
The first real difference is boost clock: EPYC 7303 Up to 3.4 GHz against EPYC Embedded 735P 2.9 GHz. They differ on tdp too, 130 W on the EPYC 7303 versus 155 W on the EPYC Embedded 735P.
Who each one is for
Buy the EPYC 7303 for datacenter and cloud compute and virtualization-dense server workloads, though it is not built for consumer desktop builds and single-threaded latency-sensitive workloads on lower core-count SKUs. The EPYC Embedded 735P is the one to take for industrial and embedded system designs and long-lifecycle networking and edge-compute deployments, though it is not the pick for consumer desktop or gaming builds and DIY PC upgrades.
Where the two are identical
Everything else lines up. L3 cache, pcie lanes, core count, thread count and base clock read the same on both, so those are not worth weighing. They match on 1 further specification as well.
Frequently asked questions
Is the Socket the same on the EPYC 7303 and EPYC Embedded 735P?
It is. Both are listed at SP3, so it is not a reason to pick one over the other.

Which one should you pick?
Choose 7303 if you want the higher L3 cache (64 MB vs 64 MB) and the higher PCIe lanes (128 lanes vs 128 lanes).
Choose 735P if you already have it on hand or find it at a lower price.
