AMD EPYC 8224P vs AMD EPYC 8435P: Comparison

EPYC 8224P vs EPYC 8435P l3 cache compared

Start with l3 cache, because it is the widest measured gap between them: EPYC 8224P 64 MB against EPYC 8435P 256 MB, 75% in favour of EPYC 8435P. SPECrate® 2017 Integer (base), 1-chip backs the spec sheet up. EPYC 8435P scores 528 to 223, 58% clear. Add memory bandwidth to that, 230.4 GB/s on the EPYC 8224P versus 307 GB/s on the EPYC 8435P, and the pattern holds. They differ on product family too, EPYC 8004 Series on the EPYC 8224P versus EPYC 8005 Series on the EPYC 8435P. Release year is not the same on both, 2023 on the EPYC 8224P versus 2026 on the EPYC 8435P. There is a split on core count as well, 24 cores on the EPYC 8224P versus 48 cores on the EPYC 8435P. They differ on thread count too, 48 threads on the EPYC 8224P versus 96 threads on the EPYC 8435P.

EPYC 8224P vs EPYC 8435P: which one fits your build

The EPYC 8224P 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. The EPYC 8435P 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.

What EPYC 8224P and EPYC 8435P have in common

Where they agree, they agree completely, memory channels, pcie lanes, cpu socket, segment and smt support included, so the decision does not turn on any of those. They match on 5 further specifications as well.

Frequently asked questions

Do the EPYC 8224P and EPYC 8435P differ on boost clock?

Yes. Boost Clock reads 3 GHz on the EPYC 8224P versus 4.5 GHz on the EPYC 8435P.

Is the Multi-Socket Support the same on the EPYC 8224P and EPYC 8435P?

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