AMD EPYC 9575F vs AMD EPYC Embedded 9015: Comparison

EPYC 9575F vs EPYC Embedded 9015 l3 cache compared

L3 cache is where these two genuinely part company, EPYC 9575F 320 MB against EPYC Embedded 9015 64 MB, a 80% lead for EPYC 9575F. They differ on boost clock too, 5.0 GHz on the EPYC 9575F versus 4.1 GHz on the EPYC Embedded 9015. They differ on tdp too, 400 W on the EPYC 9575F versus 125 W on the EPYC Embedded 9015. Core count is not the same on both, 64 cores on the EPYC 9575F versus 8 cores on the EPYC Embedded 9015. Thread count is not the same on both, 128 threads on the EPYC 9575F versus 16 threads on the EPYC Embedded 9015. There is a split on core architecture as well, Zen 5 "Turin" on the EPYC 9575F versus Zen 5 on the EPYC Embedded 9015. There is a split on base clock as well, 3.35 GHz on the EPYC 9575F versus 3.6 GHz on the EPYC Embedded 9015.

Which should you buy, EPYC 9575F or EPYC Embedded 9015?

The EPYC 9575F is the one to take for per-core licensed databases (Oracle, SQL Server) and EDA tools billed per core, though it is not built for massively parallel batch jobs and cost-per-core-sensitive deployments. Buy the EPYC Embedded 9015 for industrial and embedded system designs and long-lifecycle networking and edge-compute deployments, though it is the wrong buy for consumer desktop or gaming builds and DIY PC upgrades. Our rating of the EPYC 9575F (8.9/10): the EPYC 9575F is the right call when per-core software licensing makes clock speed worth more than core count.

What EPYC 9575F and EPYC Embedded 9015 have in common

Everything else lines up. Socket and multi-socket support read the same on both, so those are not worth weighing.
