High-frequency 24-core EPYC for single-threaded
The AMD EPYC 7F72 delivers 24 cores and 48 threads at a 3.2 GHz base clock with a 3.7 GHz max turbo frequency. It targets server tasks that benefit from high per-core speed rather than maximum core count. The 192 MB L3 cache reduces latency for complex, critical operations.
Socket SP3 platform with eight-channel DDR4
The processor fits Socket SP3 motherboards and drives eight memory channels at 3200 MHz for up to 204.8 GB/s bandwidth. It provides 128 PCI Express 4.0 lanes for high-speed storage and networking expansion. No cooling device is included, so a compatible solution must be sourced separately.
240 W TDP sustained across all cores under
With a 240 W thermal design power, the chip maintains its 3.2 GHz base frequency across all 24 cores during prolonged compute sessions. The 3.7 GHz boost applies to limited core activity rather than full-chip utilisation. Builds must plan for adequate cooling and power delivery to sustain this output.

Questions about this item
How long can the 240 W TDP be sustained before thermal throttling begins?
The 240 W TDP is the continuous thermal design power; with adequate cooling the processor maintains its 3.2 GHz base frequency indefinitely without throttling.
What fan or liquid-cooling capacity is needed to keep the 240 W EPYC 7F72 quiet during all-day operation?
A server-grade cooler rated for at least 240 W TDP on Socket SP3 is required; the processor ships without a cooling device so you must supply one.
Which motherboard socket and memory type must I already have to install this 24-core EPYC 7F72?
You need a Socket SP3 motherboard with eight-channel DDR4 memory support to use the processor's 3200 MHz memory controller and 128 PCIe 4.0 lanes.
