AMD® EPYC™ 8434P

The AMD EPYC 8434P is a server processor with 48 cores and 96 threads, built on the Zen 4 architecture (5 nm process). It launched in Sep 2023. Clocks run from 2.5 GHz base to 3.1 GHz boost. A 128-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.7 MB per core). It supports DDR5 memory. The chip drops into the SP6 socket and exposes PCIe 5.0 (96 lanes). Rated TDP is 200 W.

The AMD EPYC 8434P scores 2,448 in single-core performance and 66,490 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 12,758 for overall performance, 46,646 for productivity performance, 40,976 for creator performance, 93,086 for engineering performance and 23,967 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,385 per core, 693 per thread and 332 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 902. Its performance index is 158, so its overall performance is 58% 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.

Scores 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 8434P scores 385,290 in integer math, 215,669 in floating-point math, 1,412,835 in compression, 97,254 in cryptography, 4,036 in physics simulation, 86,189 in vector SIMD, 298 in the prime sieve and 125,932 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 554% above in integer math, 370% above in floating-point math, 520% above in compression, 746% above in cryptography, 270% above in physics simulation, 456% above in vector SIMD, 345% above in the prime sieve and 456% 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.

The AMD EPYC 8434P has 48 physical cores and runs 96 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 2.50 GHz and boosts up to 3.10 GHz.

The AMD EPYC 8434P is a server processor, belongs to the AMD EPYC family, uses the Zen 4 architecture and is manufactured on a 5 nm process. It launched in Sep 2023.

The AMD EPYC 8434P has 128 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 128.0 MB of cache, or 2.67 MB per core. Feex has no recorded L1 cache size for this processor.

The AMD EPYC 8434P supports DDR5 memory, uses 6 memory channels, runs memory at up to 4,800 MT/s and delivers up to 230.4 GB/s of memory bandwidth. It does not support DDR4 and LPDDR memory.

The AMD EPYC 8434P does not include integrated graphics, so a discrete graphics card is required for display output.

The AMD EPYC 8434P uses the SP6 socket, supports PCI Express 5.0 and provides up to 96 PCIe lanes.

The AMD EPYC 8434P has a rated TDP of 200 W.
