AMD® EPYC™ 9224

The AMD EPYC 9224 is a server processor with 24 cores and 48 threads, built on the Zen 4 architecture (5 nm process). It launched in Nov 2022. Clocks run from 2.5 GHz base to 3.7 GHz boost. A 64-MB L3 cache backs the cores (3.7 MB per core). It supports DDR5 memory. The chip drops into the SP5 socket and exposes PCIe 5.0 (128 lanes). Rated TDP is 200 W. Notable platform capabilities: AVX-512, AMD-V (Hardware Virtualization), AMD SEV.

The AMD EPYC 9224 scores 2,508 in single-core performance and 48,967 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 11,082 for overall performance, 35,340 for productivity performance, 31,446 for creator performance, 62,433 for engineering performance and 19,766 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 2,040 per core, 1,020 per thread and 245 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 784. Its performance index is 137, so its overall performance is 37% 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 9224 scores 195,213 in integer math, 111,029 in floating-point math, 713,527 in compression, 44,942 in cryptography, 4,385 in physics simulation, 47,198 in vector SIMD, 238 in the prime sieve and 94,921 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 231% above in integer math, 142% above in floating-point math, 213% above in compression, 291% above in cryptography, 302% above in physics simulation, 204% above in vector SIMD, 255% above in the prime sieve and 319% 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 9224 has 24 physical cores and runs 48 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 2.50 GHz and boosts up to 3.70 GHz.

The AMD EPYC 9224 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 Nov 2022.

The AMD EPYC 9224 has 1.50 MB of L1 cache, 24 MB of L2 cache and 64 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 89.5 MB of cache, or 3.73 MB per core. Each core has 1 MB of private L2 cache.

The AMD EPYC 9224 has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 1.5 MB, L2 at 24 MB and L3 at 64 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 72% of the cache listed here.

The AMD EPYC 9224 supports DDR5 memory, uses 12 memory channels, runs memory at up to 4,800 MT/s and delivers up to 460.8 GB/s of memory bandwidth. It does not support DDR4 and LPDDR memory.

The AMD EPYC 9224 does not include integrated graphics, so a discrete graphics card is required for display output.

The AMD EPYC 9224 uses the SP5 socket, supports PCI Express 5.0 and provides up to 128 PCIe lanes.

The AMD EPYC 9224 has a rated TDP of 200 W.
