The momentum surrounding the 5th generation of AMD EPYC™ processors has exceeded all expectations. My previous blog explored enterprise and cloud workloads. Now, as promised, I’m excited to follow up and explore how these processors are transforming HPC and AI. Let’s take a closer look at how 5th Gen AMD EPYC processors accelerate performance in these critical areas.

Commercial High-Performance Computing (HPC)

HPC touches our lives in many ways, from weather forecasting to manufacturing and life sciences. These applications require the absolute best performance available. HPC has been a major focus for AMD since 1st Gen AMD EPYC processors launched in 2017, with our customers consistently valuing the performance and efficiency these processors provide.

The ongoing AMD commitment to innovation delivers exceptional performance across multiple technical computing sectors, including enterprises and national laboratories. In this blog, I will highlight the generational and competitive performance improvements for HPC workloads by comparing 5th Gen AMD EPYC processors versus both 4th Gen AMD EPYC and 5th Gen Intel® Xeon® Platinum processors.

AMD EPYC 9005 Series Processors offer from 8 to 192 cores and TDPs ranging from 155 to 500W. I’ve selected the 5th Gen 64-core high frequency AMD EPYC 9575F for commercial HPC applications because this processor leads the industry by breaking the 5 GHz max boost frequency barrier.[1] I’m referencing a lower core-count processor for commercial applications since many are licensed on a per-core basis, making performance/core a key metric for system purchases and overall TCO.  By contrast, I’ve opted for CPUs with higher core counts to show overall throughput performance for open source HPC applications that do not have perf/core license concerns.

Large Language Models (LLM)

LLMs are advanced artificial intelligence models designed to understand and generate human-like responses based on the input they receive. LLMs are trained on vast amounts of text data, allowing them to learn grammar, context, and even nuances of language. People typically think of LLMs as an area where high performance GPUs are required; however, it is becoming increasingly apparent that high-performance CPUs such as 5th Gen AMD EPYC processors deliver strong performance on smaller LLM models.

AMD used multiple instances of this LLM to demonstrate aggregated inference performance (total tokens per second). The 5th Gen AMD EPYC 9965 processor delivers up to ~2.84x the performance of the 5th Gen Intel Xeon Platinum 8592+ processor, and the 4th Gen AMD EPYC 9654 delivers ~1.68x the performance of the same Intel processor for the “Translate” use case for inference on the GPT-J BF16 model for batch-size=16 in tokens per second. The “Summary” use case involves submitting 1024-token input prompts and the model returning a summary in 128-token responses. The “Translate” use-case involves submitting 1024-token input prompts and the model returning a translation in 1024-token responses. See Figure 16.[24]

Host Processor (Updated on 11/12/'24)

The most demanding AI workloads require high performance AI acceleration technologies. A host processor acts as the primary CPU in a multi-GPU server and plays a vital role in running the operating system and managing the execution of applications and services. Choosing the right CPU for your multi-GPU server is therefore essential for achieving optimal performance and maximizing the return on your GPU investments.

This section delves into how the host processor accelerates GPU computing. Every accelerated application involves kernel launches, data transfers between the host CPU and GPUs, and preprocessing data for GPU consumption. AMD developed specific workloads to assess the performance of kernel launches and data transfers that are publicly available at Host_Processor_Microbenchmarks*.  AMD employed the widely recognized Grok-1 framework from xAI to evaluate the preprocessing aspect.

The tested configuration includes a server powered by two 5th Gen AMD EPYC 9575F processors and equipped with eight AMD Instinct MI300 Series GPUs versus a server powered by two 5th Gen Intel Xeon Platinum 8592+ processors that is also equipped with eight AMD Instinct MI300 Series GPUs. Figure 17 shows the 5th Gen AMD EPYC 9575F processor-based system demonstrating performance speedups of ~1.30x, ~1.51, and ~2.37x for kernel launches, Grok1- xAI preprocessing, and MemCopy data transfers, respectively.[25]

Wrapping Up

My previous blog examined the performance of the 5th generation AMD EPYC processors for enterprise and cloud workloads. This blog provided an overview of the unique features of 5th Gen AMD EPYC processors in the context of demanding HPC and AI workloads. I compared the 5th Gen processors against both 4th Gen AMD EPYC and 5th Gen Intel Xeon processors. AMD EPYC 9005 Series Processors offer a range of configurations from 8 to 192 cores and TDPs from 155 to 500W. This analysis often selected the 64-core 5th Gen AMD EPYC 9575F with a max boost frequency of 5.0 GHz barrier because of its high relevance to software stacks with per-core licenses. For open-source applications, I typically chose CPUs with higher core counts to ensure optimal performance because these applications are less constrained by license cost considerations.
