From a cloud perspective I guess that would make sense. But if you are actually owning the hardware you would be looking at Performance per Watt over single and multiple core and its balance across I/O both in Sequel and Random. Because at the end of the day you are still limited by power budget. And single core boost are not sustainable over a long period of time especially in a multiple core CPU scenario. On that note I cant wait to see 256 Core Zen6c later this year. We will soon be able to buy a server with 512 Core, 1024 vCPU / Thread. 2TB of Memory, x TB of SSD all inside 1U.
