Timed Godot Game Engine Compilation benchmark with settings of Time To Compile. EPYC 9684X 2P was the fastest.
Primesieve benchmark with settings of Length: 1e13. EPYC 9754 2P was the fastest.
Helsing benchmark with settings of Digit Range: 14 digit. EPYC 9754 2P was the fastest.

Overall the CPU performance of the GPTshop.ai GH200 system was quite competitive on the CPU side and exceeded my expectations. The 72 core Neoverse-V2 configuration paired with HBM memory proved quite capable for a wide array of CPU workloads... Of course it will be all the more interesting when firing up the workloads also able to leverage the H100 GPU of this superchip design.

Graph500 benchmark with settings of Scale: 26. EPYC 9754 2P was the fastest.

The NVIDIA GH200 was also delivering much greater performance than what is available with the Ampere Altra Max 128-core processor, though will be interesting to see how AmpereOne compares once finally having hardware access.
