How do the benchmark scores compare?

AMD EPYC 7451 has a PassMark single-core score of 1,947, compared with 2,058 for Intel Xeon Platinum 8173M @ 2.00GHz. Intel Xeon Platinum 8173M @ 2.00GHz has the higher score in this benchmark.

AMD EPYC 7451 has a PassMark multicore score of 26,639, compared with 28,025 for Intel Xeon Platinum 8173M @ 2.00GHz. Intel Xeon Platinum 8173M @ 2.00GHz has the higher score in this benchmark.

Single-core scores describe one thread; multicore scores describe aggregate CPU throughput. These results do not establish which CPU is faster in every application. Compare platform support and total upgrade cost before buying.

AMD EPYC 7451 lists SP3; Intel Xeon Platinum 8173M @ 2.00GHz lists FCLGA3647. Check the motherboard manufacturer's CPU support list and BIOS requirements. If the required platform changes, include motherboard, memory and cooling costs; the CPU price alone is not the full upgrade cost.

Sources and data freshness

The retrieval date records when Find Me a CPU collected the source data. It is not a benchmark test date. Prices are USD estimates from the source, converted for other currencies, rather than live retailer offers. Release / first seen means the CPU first appeared on PassMark charts, not necessarily its launch date.

Benchmark scores do not predict frame rates in a particular game. Typical TDP is a specification, not measured electricity use. A matching socket does not confirm motherboard support; check the manufacturer's CPU support list and BIOS requirements.
