Intel insists Xeon vs Epyc benchmark fight was fair, amends speed test claims anyway

Haha...

Intel puts out some marketing FUD and gets called up on it.

While the software version and "configuration typos" were the focus of this article, the original article also mentioned the memory configuration and OS. Given the outcomes were all used to tilt the playing field in Intel's direction. Now we just have to wait for someone to publish their own results on AMD with software versions/configuration options/memory configuration/OS altered between "best" and "Intels choices" to see what the truth was...

How many companies will even deploy Platinum 9282 given that they are only available in a somewhat limited Intel OEM system? Or is the market for these chips so small that these chips are only really being released for benchmark FUD anyway for the trickle down effect of maintaining the performance crown?
