About the AMD EPYC 9254 CPU

The AMD EPYC 9254 is a 24-core (48-thread) processor built for the server CPU market. It launched in Q4 2022 with a suggested retail price of $2,299. It is part of AMD's EPYC lineup, which is based on the Zen 4 microarchitecture. The EPYC 9254 is compatible with AMD Socket SP5 motherboards and is fabricated on TSMC's 5 nm manufacturing process.

Memory and Cache

The EPYC 9254 supports DDR5 memory and features a twelve-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 12 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the EPYC 9254 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 1 MB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 128 MB.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The EPYC 9254 features 24 total cores which can process 48 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2.9 GHz, and it can boost up to 4.2 GHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.

Integrated Graphics

The EPYC 9254 does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.

About the AMD Athlon 64 X2 QL-62 CPU

The AMD Athlon 64 X2 QL-62 is an end-of-life 2-core (2-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. It launched in Q3 2008. It is part of AMD's Athlon X2 lineup, which is based on the Griffin microarchitecture. The 64 X2 QL-62 is compatible with AMD Socket S1 motherboards and is fabricated on a 65 nm manufacturing process.

Memory and Cache

In terms of cache, the Athlon 64 X2 QL-62 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 256 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 1 MB, is larger but slower than the L1.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Athlon 64 X2 QL-62 features 2 total cores which can process 2 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2000.0 MHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.

Integrated Graphics

The Athlon 64 X2 QL-62 does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
