The AMD EPYC 7642 has 48 cores and 96 threads per socket. The Intel Xeon Scalable LGA3647 lineup in the market during the second half of 2019 and much of 2020 has a maximum of 28 cores. For general purpose workloads that do not take advantage of some of the bleeding edge Xeon features, AMD is matching and sometimes beating Intel’s per-core performance. AMD has 48 cores here, Intel has at most 28. That should give you some sense of how this review is going to go.
