The V-Ray benchmark has published the first public benchmarks of AMD EPYC 9754 “Bergamo” CPU with the new Zen 4C cores. AMD has officially released their EPYC Bergamo CPUs, which include a brand-new Zen 4C CPU core. This new core enables AMD to offer up to two times the core density of regular Genoa chips, allowing for up to 128 cores and 256 threads.
At the same time, AMD maintains practically all architectural choices while expanding its efficiency edge over the competitors. The first independent benchmarks of the AMD EPYC 9754 “Bergamo” CPU, which is also the flagship component, are now available.
In a 360W TDP package, AMD EPYC 9754 has 128 cores, 256 threads, 256 MB L3 cache, and boost frequencies of up to 3.10 GHz. The CPU was compared in both 1P and 2P setups, with the following findings.
The AMD EPYC 9754 “Bergamo” CPU alone was able to outperform two AMD EPYC 9554 64-core Genoa CPUs by 3.2%. The Genoa CPUs have a substantially higher boost clock of 3.75 GHz, which is 21% higher than the Bergamo CPUs.
The CPU also outperformed the EPYC 9654, Genoa’s flagship chip, by 41%, despite having a higher boost frequency of 3.7 GHz. The CPU also outperformed a twin Intel Xeon Platinum 8490H systems by 42%. Even when compared to the current fastest Threadripper Pro CPU, the 5995WX in a 2-way configuration, the EPYC Bergamo dual-socket solution outperformed it by 2.42x.
