AMD Naples server platform.
-
Spotted the server side of AMD's new architecture. The raw numbers look good, but HotHardWare only had AMD's own performance review, which was obviously a 1 sided performance comparison... AMD didn't even put the same amount of memory in both systems.
I really want to see the performance comparison from a non-biased source.
The CPUs are 32 core/64 thread, 8 memory channels (16 total memory slots), and 128 lanes of PCIe per chip. Should be able to put massive amounts of workloads on those things... we'll see.

I'm surprised a super high power eight core chip is not their first one out of the gate, basically a high cache version of their desktop chip.

If these perform like expected, these are going to be the darlings of cloud hosting.

It's going to be interesting when all the marketing wank gets swept away and someone benchmarks these things for real.

Their gaming/ws cpus were benched already, slower than comparable Intel's by about 10%.

I heard the opposite, 10% faster. Who did the benchmarks that came out slower?

https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2017/03/amd-ryzen-review/Ah I see, gaming it is behind, specifically behind quad core procs because the threading isn't leveraged. But for business stuff, it's rocking it looks like.

The Ryzen results bode well for Naples.
