Years late and 36 cores short of AMD, who are Intel’s 4th-gen Xeons even for?

, Supermicro's Bill Chen, who leads Supermicro's server product management, estimated that between 60-70 percent of customers will never take advantage of Intel's custom accelerators.

AMX is designed to accelerate deep learning models like natural language processing and recommendation systems and compliment's Intel's existing AVX 512 instruction set. The new AI extension still needs to be called by the software, but software support for these extensions already exists, he explained."If you've trained an AI model, there's not much work" to be done.

Patel explains that Intel has managed to keep the chiplet-to-chiplet latency relatively low, in part because they've stuck with a mesh interconnect system. This, he explains, makes Sapphire Rapids less scalable than AMD's Epyc but allows it to maintain more predictable latency between all the various cores, regardless on which die they occupy.

Ampere's Altra Max and AMD's Epyc 4 may have more cores — 128 and 96 respectively — but they're both capped at a maximum of two sockets, which means the densest configuration you can hope for is 192 cores in the case of AMD and 256 cores on the Altra Max platform. Meanwhile, AMD's 9454 offers the same number of cores, but at a 2.75GHz base clock, an all-core boost clock of 3.65GHz, and a list price of $5,225. That works out to about $108/core.
