Description
AMD returned to the server CPU market in 2017 with the release of their EPYC line of CPUs, based on the Zen microarchitecture. In this presentation, we'll provide an overview of the AMD EPYC CPU architecture, and how it differs from Intel's Xeon Skylake. We'll also present performance and cost comparisons between EPYC and Skylake, with an emphasis on use in HEP/NP computing environments.
