AMD EPYC 8024PN vs AMD EPYC 8125P: Comparison

EPYC 8024PN vs EPYC 8125P l3 cache compared

L3 cache is where these two genuinely part company, EPYC 8024PN 32 MB against EPYC 8125P 128 MB, a 75% lead for EPYC 8125P. Measured rather than claimed: in SPECrate® 2017 Integer (base), 1-chip the EPYC 8125P returns 224 against 79.7, a 64% lead. Add memory bandwidth to that, 230.4 GB/s on the EPYC 8024PN versus 307 GB/s on the EPYC 8125P, and the pattern holds. There is a split on release year as well, 2023 on the EPYC 8024PN versus 2026 on the EPYC 8125P. There is a split on core count as well, 8 cores on the EPYC 8024PN versus 16 cores on the EPYC 8125P. They differ on thread count too, 16 threads on the EPYC 8024PN versus 32 threads on the EPYC 8125P. There is a split on core architecture as well, Zen 4c on the EPYC 8024PN versus Zen 5 on the EPYC 8125P.

EPYC 8024PN vs EPYC 8125P: which one fits your build

The EPYC 8024PN 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 8125P is the one to take for datacenter and cloud compute and virtualization-dense server workloads, though it is the wrong buy for consumer desktop builds and single-threaded latency-sensitive workloads on lower core-count SKUs.

What EPYC 8024PN and EPYC 8125P have in common

The common ground is wider than the gap: memory channels, pcie lanes, cpu socket, segment and smt support are identical here. They match on 5 further specifications as well.

Frequently asked questions

Do the EPYC 8024PN and EPYC 8125P differ on boost clock?

Yes. Boost Clock reads 3 GHz on the EPYC 8024PN versus 4.5 GHz on the EPYC 8125P.

Is the Multi-Socket Support the same on the EPYC 8024PN and EPYC 8125P?

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