Overview
SummaryThe AMD EPYC 7643P is a server processor with 48 cores and 96 threads, built on the Zen 3 architecture. It launched in Sep 2023. Clocks run from 2.3 GHz base to 3.6 GHz boost. A 256-MB L3 cache backs the cores (5.3 MB per core). It supports DDR4 memory. Rated TDP is 225 W. Notable platform capabilities: AMD-V (Hardware Virtualization), AMD SEV.
Performance
12 metricsThe AMD EPYC 7643P scores 2,655 in single-core performance and 77,307 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 14,327 for overall performance, 53,967 for productivity performance, 47,298 for creator performance, 108,230 for engineering performance and 27,292 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,611 per core, 805 per thread and 344 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 955. Its performance index is 178, so its overall performance is 78% above the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.
How these scores are computed
Single-core and multi-core performance are PassMark CPU Mark single-thread and multi-thread ratings. Every other figure on this page's performance section is computed by Feex from those two ratings plus core count, thread count and TDP, so it is a derived value and not a separate benchmark run.
- Overall performance is the geometric mean of the two ratings: the square root of single-core times multi-core.
- Productivity performance is 0.65 times multi-core plus 1.4 times single-core.
- Creator performance is 0.55 times multi-core plus 1.8 times single-core.
- Engineering performance is multi-core times the smaller of 1.4 and (0.9 plus cores divided by 64).
- Gaming performance is 3 times single-core plus 0.25 times multi-core.
- Performance per core, per thread and per watt divide the multi-core rating by physical cores, logical threads and TDP in watts.
- The efficiency index is the square root of single-core times multi-core, divided by the square root of TDP.
- The performance index is overall performance divided by the overall performance of the Intel Core i5-12400 (8,069), times 100.
Workload Benchmarks
8 workloadsScores for individual PassMark CPU Mark test categories. Higher is better. These are measured test scores, not computed from the single-core and multi-core ratings.
In the individual workload tests the AMD EPYC 7643P scores 390,775 in integer math, 216,592 in floating-point math, 1,326,051 in compression, 95,606 in cryptography, 8,002 in physics simulation, 67,398 in vector SIMD, 651 in the prime sieve and 160,274 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 564% above in integer math, 372% above in floating-point math, 481% above in compression, 732% above in cryptography, 634% above in physics simulation, 335% above in vector SIMD, 872% above in the prime sieve and 608% above in sorting. Each bar shows the score as a share of that workload's reference ceiling, the larger of the 99th-percentile score across CPUs with a recorded value and a fixed baseline.
