AMD EPYC 9865 vs Intel Core2 Duo P7550

In this CPU comparison, we compare the AMD EPYC 9865 and the Intel Core2 Duo P7550 and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the AMD EPYC 9865 160 core processor released in Q4/2024 with the Intel Core2 Duo P7550 which has 2 CPU cores and was introduced in Q3/2009.

The AMD EPYC 9865 is a 160 core processor with a clock frequency of 2.10 GHz. The processor can compute 320 threads at the same time. The Intel Core2 Duo P7550 clocks with 2.26 GHz, has 2 CPU cores and can calculate 2 threads in parallel.

The performance values of the processor's AI unit. The isolated NPU performance is specified here, the total AI performance (NPU+CPU+iGPU) can be higher. Processors with support for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) can process many calculations, especially audio, image and video processing, much faster than classic processors.

Graphics (iGPU) integrated into the processor not only enable image output without having to rely on a dedicated graphics solution, but can also efficiently accelerate video playback.

A photo or video codec that is accelerated in hardware can greatly accelerate the working speed of a processor and extend the battery life of notebooks or smartphones when playing videos.

Up to 6144 GB of memory in a maximum of 12 memory channels is supported by the AMD EPYC 9865, while the Intel Core2 Duo P7550 supports a maximum of GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of -- enabled.

The AMD EPYC 9865 has a TDP of 400 W. The TDP of the Intel Core2 Duo P7550 is 25 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The AMD EPYC 9865 has 320.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 4 nm. The cache of Intel Core2 Duo P7550 is at 3.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 45 nm.
