Phoronix published a review on the AMD EPYC 7251 Provides Great Value At Less Than $500 USD
A quote from the article:
We have been delivering a number of EPYC 7601 Linux benchmarks since receiving this 32 core / 64 thread high-end server processor a little more than one month ago. Recently we received some additional EPYC processors from AMD for testing and for this next batch of benchmarking decided to begin with the EPYC 7251, which is the current lowest-end EPYC part. For priced at under $500 USD, this eight core / 16 thread processor has a lot to offer.AMD EPYC 7251 Provides Great Value At Less Than $500 USD @ Phoronix
