AMD EPYC 9335 vs AMD EPYC Embedded 9555P: Comparison

EPYC 9335 vs EPYC Embedded 9555P: the l3 cache difference

The gap that matters here is l3 cache: EPYC 9335 128 MB against EPYC Embedded 9555P 256 MB, which puts EPYC Embedded 9555P 50% ahead. There is a split on boost clock as well, 4.0 GHz on the EPYC 9335 versus 4.4 GHz on the EPYC Embedded 9555P. Tdp is not the same on both, 210 W on the EPYC 9335 versus 360 W on the EPYC Embedded 9555P. They differ on core count too, 32 cores on the EPYC 9335 versus 64 cores on the EPYC Embedded 9555P. There is a split on thread count as well, 64 threads on the EPYC 9335 versus 128 threads on the EPYC Embedded 9555P. Core architecture is not the same on both, Zen 5 "Turin" on the EPYC 9335 versus Zen 5 on the EPYC Embedded 9555P. They differ on base clock too, 3.0 GHz on the EPYC 9335 versus 3.2 GHz on the EPYC Embedded 9555P. There is a split on multi-socket support as well, 1P/2P on the EPYC 9335 versus Single Socket Only on the EPYC Embedded 9555P.

Who each one is for

The EPYC 9335 suits general-purpose virtualization hosts and application servers, though it is the wrong buy for maximum core density workloads and large-scale hyperscale deployments. Buy the EPYC Embedded 9555P for industrial and embedded system designs and long-lifecycle networking and edge-compute deployments, though it is not built for consumer desktop or gaming builds and DIY PC upgrades. Our rating of the EPYC 9335 (8.6/10): the EPYC 9335 is a well-rounded mid-tier choice for general enterprise server workloads that don't need maximum core density.

Where the two are identical

Where they agree, they agree completely, memory channels, socket and ecc support included, so the decision does not turn on any of those.
