The AMD EPYC 9374F is a server/workstation processor with 32 cores, launched in November 2022, at an MSRP of $4850. It is part of the EPYC lineup, using the Zen 4 (Genoa) architecture with Socket SP5. Thanks to AMD Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) the core-count is effectively doubled, to 64 threads. To further increase overall system performance, up to two EPYC 9374F CPUs can link up in a multi-processor (SMP) configuration. EPYC 9374F has 256 MB of L3 cache and operates at 3.85 GHz by default, but can boost up to 4.3 GHz, depending on the workload. AMD is building the EPYC 9374F on a 5 nm production process using 52,560 million transistors. The silicon die of the chip is not fabricated at AMD, but at the foundry of TSMC. The multiplier is locked on EPYC 9374F, which limits its overclocking capabilities.
With a TDP of 320 W, the EPYC 9374F is extremely power hungry, which means you need top-notch cooling. AMD's processor supports DDR5 memory with a twelve-channel interface. The highest officially supported memory speed is 4800 MT/s. ECC memory is supported, too, which is an important capability for mission-critical systems, to avoid data corruption. For communication with other components in the computer, EPYC 9374F uses a PCI-Express Gen 5 connection. This processor lacks integrated graphics, you might need a graphics card.
