The new Intel Rocket Lake CPUs have been officially released. There were numerous posts and reviews before the official release date of March 30 2021, but I haven’t seen anything about the numerical compute performance. I’ve had access to a Core-i9 11900KF 8-core CPU and have compared it with (my own) AMD 5800X system.
How To Use MKL with AMD Ryzen and Threadripper CPU’s (Effectively) for Python Numpy (And Other Applications)
In this post I’m going to show you a simple way to significantly speedup Python numpy compute performance on AMD CPU’s when using Anaconda Python.
AMD Ryzen 3900X vs Intel Xeon 2175W Python numpy – MKL vs OpenBLAS
In this post I’ve done more testing with Ryzen 3900X looking at the effect of BLAS libraries on a simple but computationally demanding problem with Python numpy. The results may surprise you! I start with a little bit of history of Intel vs AMD performance to give you what may be a new perspective on the issue.
