AMD EPYC 8024P vs AMD EPYC 8225P: Comparison

EPYC 8024P vs EPYC 8225P: the l3 cache difference

The gap that matters here is l3 cache: EPYC 8024P 32 MB against EPYC 8225P 128 MB, which puts EPYC 8225P 75% ahead. Measured rather than claimed: in SPECrate® 2017 Integer (base), 1-chip the EPYC 8225P returns 328 against 78, a 76% lead. Add memory bandwidth to that, 230.4 GB/s on the EPYC 8024P versus 307 GB/s on the EPYC 8225P, and the pattern holds. There is a split on product family as well, EPYC 8004 Series on the EPYC 8024P versus EPYC 8005 Series on the EPYC 8225P. Release year is not the same on both, 2023 on the EPYC 8024P versus 2026 on the EPYC 8225P. They differ on core count too, 8 cores on the EPYC 8024P versus 24 cores on the EPYC 8225P. Thread count is not the same on both, 16 threads on the EPYC 8024P versus 48 threads on the EPYC 8225P.

EPYC 8024P vs EPYC 8225P: which one fits your build

The EPYC 8024P is the one to take 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 8225P suits 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.

Where the two are identical

Everything else lines up. Memory channels, pcie lanes, cpu socket, segment and smt support read the same on both, so those are not worth weighing. They match on 5 further specifications as well.

Frequently asked questions

Do the EPYC 8024P and EPYC 8225P differ on boost clock?

Yes. Boost Clock reads 3 GHz on the EPYC 8024P versus 4.5 GHz on the EPYC 8225P.

Is the Multi-Socket Support the same on the EPYC 8024P and EPYC 8225P?

It is. Both are listed at Single Socket Only, so it is not a reason to pick one over the other.
