AMD EPYC 7513 vs AMD EPYC Embedded 740P: Comparison

EPYC 7513 vs EPYC Embedded 740P l3 cache compared

L3 cache is where these two genuinely part company, EPYC 7513 128 MB against EPYC Embedded 740P 64 MB, a 50% lead for EPYC 7513. There is a split on boost clock as well, Up to 3.65 GHz on the EPYC 7513 versus 3 GHz on the EPYC Embedded 740P. There is a split on tdp as well, 200 W on the EPYC 7513 versus 155 W on the EPYC Embedded 740P. They differ on core count too, 32 cores on the EPYC 7513 versus 24 cores on the EPYC Embedded 740P. There is a split on thread count as well, 64 threads on the EPYC 7513 versus 48 threads on the EPYC Embedded 740P. They differ on base clock too, 2.6 GHz on the EPYC 7513 versus 2 GHz on the EPYC Embedded 740P.

Who each one is for

The EPYC 7513 suits 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 740P is the one to take for 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.

What EPYC 7513 and EPYC Embedded 740P have in common

Everything else lines up. Pcie lanes and socket read the same on both, so those are not worth weighing.

    Which one should you pick?

    Choose 7513 if you want the higher L3 cache (128 MB vs 64 MB) and the higher PCIe lanes (128 lanes vs 128 lanes).

    Choose 740P if you already have it on hand or find it at a lower price.
