Summary
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 Intel Core i7-4702HQ CPU
The Intel Core i7-4702HQ is an end-of-life 4-core (8-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. It launched in Q2 2013. It is part of Intel's Core i7 lineup, which is based on the Crystal Well microarchitecture. The i7-4702HQ is compatible with Intel BGA 1364 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 22 nm manufacturing process. It features the Intel HD 4600 integrated graphics solution.
Memory and Cache
The Core i7-4702HQ supports DDR3 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Core i7-4702HQ 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 256 KB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 6 MB.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Core i7-4702HQ features 4 total cores which can process 8 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2.2 GHz, and it can boost up to 3.2 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 Core i7-4702HQ includes an integrated graphics solution called Intel HD 4600. This graphics processor is directly integrated into the CPU and is not as powerful as a dedicated graphics card. While integrated graphics can handle basic tasks like web browsing and office applications, it is not suitable for more demanding activities such as gaming or video editing, where a dedicated graphics card offers superior performance.
