What reviewers say
AMD EPYC 7713P
Reviewers and owners praise the EPYC 7713P for its strong multi-threaded performance and high core count, making it a solid choice for dense virtualization and compute. They note the single-socket limitation and power requirements as trade-offs, but overall consider it a capable server CPU.
- PerformancePraisedReviewers highlight the 64 cores and 128 threads for handling heavy multi-threaded workloads with ease.
- Power consumptionMixedSome note the 225 W TDP requires careful cooling and power planning, though efficiency is better than older parts.
- Single-socketCriticisedThe 'P' suffix means it cannot be used in dual-socket configurations, which limits scalability for some buyers.
Questions and answers
- Which is better for virtualization?
- The EPYC 7713P. Its 64 cores and 128 threads host far more VMs per socket than the 7373X's 16 cores and 32 threads.
- Which is faster per core?
- The EPYC 7373X. It runs at 3.05 GHz base and 3.8 GHz boost versus 2.0 GHz and 3.68 GHz on the 7713P.
- Do they use the same motherboard?
- Yes. Both are SP3 server chips with 8-channel DDR4 up to 3200 MT/s and a 4 TB memory ceiling, so the platform is the same.
- Which costs less to license?
- The EPYC 7373X, on per-core software licenses. With 16 cores it needs a quarter of the core licenses the 64-core 7713P does.
- Which runs cooler?
- The EPYC 7713P at 225 W TDP, slightly below the 7373X at 240 W. Both need server-grade cooling.
- Is the 7373X worth it over the 7713P?
- Only if your software is bound by clock speed or licensed per core. For parallel throughput, the 7713P gives much more capacity per socket.
