AMD Makes A Compelling Case For Budget-Friendly Ryzen Dedicated Servers

If doing a lot of image encoding such as for image caching and dynamically serving WebP and AVIF assets where supported, the AMD Ryzen 5800/5900 series generally came out ahead of the Xeon E-2388G flagship processor.

Though with encoders not as well threaded or not able to efficiently use 32 threads, the Xeon E-2300 parts tested did stand up better for JPEG-XL image encoding.

Or JPEG-XL image encoding from a PNG led to a close race...

Video encoders normally love high core counts so the results here come as little surprise.
