The article's subtitle ("They are still more expensive than AMD's competing EPYC, though.") seems to directly contradict the article. Perhaps I missed something in it, but a few times the article discusses how "Intel's Xeon 6 CPUs are now cheaper than AMD's latest EPYC 'Genoa' processors both in absolute numbers and in terms of per-core pricing" and "Intel's Xeon 6900P-series processors are now cheaper than AMD's EPYC 9600-series CPUs in per-core pricing."
Is the subtitle simply wrong? The only way I can make sense of it is to suppose it refers to the price if you actually attempt to acquire a Xeon as opposed to the MSRP (if that is even the right term in this space).
- epolanski 2y agoYou're correct, my understanding is that AMD has now the Epyc Turin released, Genoa is a 2022 product.
- MRPockets 2y agoAh, I see. Intel's price reduction leaves the Xeon 6 prices lower than the AMD Genoa (2022) prices, but higher than the AMD Turin (2024) prices. Strange that the article doesn't mention Turin at all.
