AMD EPYC 7352 vs AMD EPYC Embedded 7501: Comparison
EPYC 7352 vs EPYC Embedded 7501 l3 cache compared
The gap that matters here is l3 cache: EPYC 7352 128 MB against EPYC Embedded 7501 64 MB, which puts EPYC 7352 50% ahead. There is a split on boost clock as well, Up to 3.2 GHz on the EPYC 7352 versus 3 GHz on the EPYC Embedded 7501. Core count is not the same on both, 24 cores on the EPYC 7352 versus 32 cores on the EPYC Embedded 7501. They differ on thread count too, 48 threads on the EPYC 7352 versus 64 threads on the EPYC Embedded 7501. There is a split on base clock as well, 2.3 GHz on the EPYC 7352 versus 2 GHz on the EPYC Embedded 7501.
EPYC 7352 vs EPYC Embedded 7501: which one fits your build
The EPYC 7352 is the one to take 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 7501 suits industrial and embedded system designs and long-lifecycle networking and edge-compute deployments, though it is the wrong buy for consumer desktop or gaming builds and DIY PC upgrades.
Where the two are identical
Where they agree, they agree completely, tdp, pcie lanes and socket included, so the decision does not turn on any of those.

Which one should you pick?
Choose 7352 if you want the higher L3 cache (128 MB vs 64 MB) and the higher PCIe lanes (128 lanes vs 128 lanes).
Choose 7501 if you already have it on hand or find it at a lower price.
