AMD EPYC 9376F vs AMD EPYC 9526: Comparison
What is the difference between EPYC 9376F and EPYC 9526?
On l3 cache the spread is 25%, EPYC 9376F 192 MB against EPYC 9526 256 MB, so EPYC 9526 takes it. They differ on boost clock too, 5 GHz on the EPYC 9376F versus 3.7 GHz on the EPYC 9526. They differ on tdp too, 285 W on the EPYC 9376F versus 220 W on the EPYC 9526. There is a split on configurable tdp max as well, 400 W on the EPYC 9376F versus 220 W on the EPYC 9526. There is a split on core count as well, 32 cores on the EPYC 9376F versus 64 cores on the EPYC 9526. Thread count is not the same on both, 64 threads on the EPYC 9376F versus 128 threads on the EPYC 9526. Base clock is not the same on both, 3.8 GHz on the EPYC 9376F versus 2.75 GHz on the EPYC 9526.
EPYC 9376F vs EPYC 9526: which one fits your build
The EPYC 9376F 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. The EPYC 9526 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.
Where the two are identical
Where they agree, they agree completely, memory channels, pcie lanes, cpu socket, product family and segment included, so the decision does not turn on any of those. They match on 10 further specifications as well.
Frequently asked questions
Is the SMT Support the same on the EPYC 9376F and EPYC 9526?
It is. Both are listed at Yes, so it is not a reason to pick one over the other.
