AMD's Epic Performance Gains From The Original EPYC 7601 To EPYC 9755 / EPYC 9965 Review  Phoronix

Last week I published fresh benchmarks showing how AMD's EPYC 4005 series for budget servers can outperform the original EPYC 7601 flagship processor when EPYC first launched during the Zen 1 period.
