32-core EPYC 7001 server processor
The AMD EPYC 7601 is a 32-core, 64-thread server CPU built for dual-socket SP3 platforms. It runs at a 2.2 GHz base frequency with a maximum boost of 3.2 GHz and a 64 MB L3 cache. The processor has a 180 W default TDP and supports all-core smart frequency boost at 2.7 GHz.
Suited for dense multi-threaded workloads.
This processor suits virtualisation hosts, database servers and high-performance compute clusters that need high core density in a two-socket configuration. It is not a fit for workloads that rely on high single-thread frequency or platforms limited to single-socket operation.
Socket SP3 and 180 W TDP define platform fit
The SP3 socket and 180 W thermal envelope determine motherboard and cooling requirements. Verify that the target board supports the EPYC 7001 series and provides sufficient power delivery and cooling for this TDP before purchase.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the 180 W TDP generate under sustained load?
The processor has a default TDP of 180 W, so the cooling solution must be rated to dissipate at least that much heat continuously.
What motherboard socket is required for this EPYC 7601?
It requires a motherboard with a Socket SP3 (also called SP3r2) and a compatible server chipset.
Can this 32-core EPYC 7601 run in a single-socket server board?
Yes, the specifications list 1P/2P socket support, so it works in both single- and dual-socket configurations.
