Performance Comparison

Phoronix has published benchmarks comparing the Intel Xeon 6780E Sierra Forest dual-socket server against the AMD EPYC 9965 Turin Dense flagship, using up-to-date Linux software. The tests highlight performance improvements for the Intel processor since its launch, driven by open-source optimizations. Both systems were evaluated on Ubuntu with the Linux 6.18 kernel for workloads that scale to high core counts.
