Sorry, I got confused by the article. Anyway, should we compare by price or compare best Intel chip to best AMD chip? Because EPYC processors are priced closer

Sorry, I got confused by the article. Anyway, should we compare by price or compare best Intel chip to best AMD chip? Because EPYC processors are priced closer to Xeon-W line, but have the number of cores topping Xeon Platinum :)
- c2h5oh 9y agoThe comparison is somewhat weird and the space is a bit weird: - Xeon-w cpus seem to be i9 HEDT just without disabled ECC - everything else (beside a price premium) is the same - Epyc CPUs are server CPUs and I'm not aware of any desktop motherboards for them, but considering 32 core Epyc has the same TDP as Threadripper they could release a desktop variant (different socket) - Xeon-W and i9s with more than 10 cores have only been announced, you can't buy them yet so it's a comparison of parts you can't get your hands on with either parts in a different space or ones that were not announced yet
