ServeTheWorld launches a new series of dedicated servers based on the AMD Ryzen 5950X processor.  To evaluate its potential we worked closely with AMD and Phoronix.com to compare different AMD Ryzen and Intel Xeon E - based server configurations.

During a month-long benchmarking exercise Phoronix.com remotely benchmarked a broad range of microprocessor configurations to test popular workloads, including kernel compilation, web serving, databases and rendering. Taking the average across 115 benchmarks, the 16-core Ryzen 9 5950X came out 41% faster than the 8-core Xeon E-2388G. And for customers interested in saving the environment the article also includes the analysis of server power consumption.

See Phoronix's article with all test results.

The take away is that our new AMD Ryzen-based offering can deliver a great combination of the leading performance and value. By choosing the new 16-core server customers can get up to 2.5 times better price-performance than the Intel's Xeon E flagship E-2388G. Thanks to offering more high performance cores, based on the same microarchitecture found in the enterprise grade AMD EPYC processors, the new server can easily host multiple containers and light VMs.

Finally, the new dedicated server series can also be configured to better protect data-in-use, located in system memory, CPU registers and cache. On-die security subsystem provides a 128-bit encryption for system memory reads and writes, with minimal impact on the overall performance.
