Processor comparisons 11-01-2022
Perhaps you can't decide which processor to buy, you can make a choice after reading the full tests Intel Core i7-12700KF vs AMD EPYC 7543P and decide which is better for games or simple use for video editing, machine learning, rendering, streaming, programming. Here is useful information from different benchmarks or real video editing and streaming tests. A step-by-step analysis of all the specifications, so that it can be easier to read, is made by the table.
From the video comparison, you can get the results of joint testing in special testing software like PassMark, Blender, AIDA64, Dolphin Emulator, UserBenchmark, MATLAB, DaVinci Resolve Studio, Geekbench 5.2, 3DMark, Gears 5, World of Tanks enCore Benchmark, Furmark, 7zip, Prime95, SuperPi, Blender, Cinebench 23 (20, 15), WPrime, VeraCrypt, RealBench, Handbrake, PCMark 10.

Summary benchmark resultsAs a percentage of the maximum value based on a sample from the entire base of all processors
Processor Benchmark
| Core i7-12700KF | 74% |
EPYC 7543P | 83% |
This value shows the performance of the processors in single-threaded and multi-threaded mode. In this comparison, EPYC 7543P is 10% better than Core i7-12700KF. The data source is several popular tests. Detailed information can be found below.
Gaming performance
Summary result of all game benchmarks.| Core i7-12700KF | 64% |
EPYC 7543P | 77% |
The maximum result in this parameter is 100 percent, which is the performance of the most powerful processor at the moment. And of course, this is a server processor, on which no one will play games. Because the cost of this processor reaches several tens of thousands of dollars. Therefore, if you think that the selected CPU has a low game result, just look at the FPS that it produces in real games in the final table below.
List of less popular games in which processors were compared: Forza Horizon 4, Half-Life: Alyx, Metro Exodus, NBA 2K20, Control, Hitman 3, Resident Evil 7 Biohazard, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG), Ghostrunner, League of Legends (LOL), The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS GO), Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Monster Hunter World, DOTA 2A, Battlefield V, Horizon Zero Dawn, Microsoft Flight Simulator.
Gaming benchmark| Fortnite | 113.9 | 135.9 | | Valorant | 129.4 | 154.5 | | Cyberpunk 2077 | 72.5 | 86.5 | | Apex Legends | 121.7 | 145.2 | | Call of Duty Warzone | 97.1 | 115.9 | | Overwatch | 104.8 | 125.1 | | Red Dead Redemption 2 | 89.3 | 106.6 | | DOOM Eternal | 64.7 | 77.2 | | Warzone | 101.0 | 120.5 | | Assassin's Creed | 108.7 | 129.8 | | Valheim | 107.4 | 128.2 |
The numbers in this table indicate the maximum FPS that was received on the device with the corresponding processor. Depending on the configuration of the computer (RAM size and Video Card) and graphics quality settings (Ultra, Medium, Normal), the results may differ quite significantly. We recommend that you better study the results of the Cinebench, GeekBench and Passmark becnmarks.
The tested computers not only did they have different video cards and different amounts of RAM. But users also tested them at different screen resolutions: FullHD, 2K or 4K. So the game benchmark data is approximate. But all video cards met the average system requirements of games. To be sure exactly how much performance the processor will be in games, if you compare it in one assembly with the video card that is installed in your computer.
Power consumption
| Core i7-12700KF | 57% |
EPYC 7543P | 19% |
To make a final decision on which processor is better, you should also consider the generation of its core. The newer the processor generation, the better its performance in games and benchmarks, as well as its energy efficiency. In this case the Core i7-12700KF is more energy efficient than the EPYC 7543P since it has less power consumption: 125W vs. 225W. Power consumption is especially important for laptops. And TDP should be taken into account when choosing a processor cooling system. You need to buy a cooler that has the TDP data specified in the specification was greater than the TDP of the compared processor.
Software benchmarksLet's say you want to use the processor not only for gaming, but also for streaming, machine learning, video editing or video rendering, programming, then the main parameter for you is its performance in multi-threaded mode. In this mode, the CPU includes all cores and threads that it has to the maximum to achieve maximum efficiency. You will learn this data from the benchmark tables below. Before using the data from these tests, be sure to check whether the software you are going to use on your computer supports multi-threaded mode. Since there are still many programs that use only one core to work, and all the benefit of multi-core mode turns out to be unnecessary.

Comparison of specifications
In the specification comparison table, the most useful will be the release date of the processor and the possibility of overclocking it. The later the processor is released, the longer it will last you. And the easier it will be to upgrade the system in the future. The same benefits from the presence of overclocking. When the processor can be overclocked, increasing its performance, then it will still be able to produce maximum FPS in new games. Accordingly, there is no longer a need to buy a new CPU to enjoy the games any longer. The economy are obvious!

Another difference is that EPYC 7543P has 20 more core than Core i7-12700KF. Also keep in mind that high CPU frequency affects battery life through power consumption (relevant for laptops).
Result:
The number of parameters for which Intel Core i7-12700KF is better: 14
The number of parameters for which AMD EPYC 7543P is better: 21
Although it should be understood that all the figures that you have looked at here do not mean that taking them into account you should totally trust a simple comparison of these numbers. Be sure to watch the testing video and read the opinion of of people who bought Intel Core i7-12700KF and AMD EPYC 7543P before making a choice which CPU to buy for gaming and which not.
