AMD Ryzen 7000 Series Make For Compelling Budget Servers, Leading Performance & Value Over Xeon E

In some workloads like simdjson the generational uplift of the Ryzen 7000 series was huge thanks to the introduction of AVX-512 with Zen 4.

The AMD EPYC 9004 series with 12 channels of DDR5 memory and up to 96 cores per socket (or 128 cores with Bergamo) can be much more potent for demanding HPC workloads, but if you are on a budget the Ryzen 9 7900 series can deliver great value. For a number of the HPC workloads the 3D V-Cache with the Ryzen 9 7950X3D and 7900X3D provides great performance and even better power efficiency.
