AMD EPYC 7532 deal unlocks serious multi core performance for less than $140

If you are buying a high quality desktop computer CPU and you don't want to spend extra money, this AMD EPYC deal is worth your consideration.

The EPYC 7532 is a 32-core, 64-thread server processor that retails for under $140 and offers an amazing level of processing power for the price.

The processor belongs to the AMD EPYC 7002 series and was originally designed for corporate servers. It runs at a base clock of 2.40GHz, boostable up to 3.30GHz, and includes a massive 256MB L3 cache. When this processor was first released back in 2020, it had a retail price of $3,350.

There's one thing you should know before you reach for your wallet: the chip being sold here Bystock renovated But don't let this bother you. It's been fully tested and comes with a 5-year warranty, which is longer than many new consumer processors.

At this point, a server processor that has been repaired and burned out is unlikely to fail under normal use.

The biggest catch (because there's always one) is that the EPYC 7532 uses the SP3 socket, which means you need a server-grade motherboard.

These boards are much more expensive than regular consumer options and typically require ECC DDR4 memory.

The processor also consumes 200W of power, so cooling and power delivery are major issues.

If you add in the costs of the motherboard, memory, and cooling, the total build can quickly exceed the cost of a modern consumer system, so take that into account.

VAT must also be taken into account. Although the total price is $134, VAT brings the total to $161, and that doesn't include shipping.

The processor ships from the UK via DHL at discounted international rates, but the final cost will depend on location and potential import charges. For UK customers the cost of the processor is £100 or £120 inclusive of VAT.

For home lab builders, virtualization enthusiasts, and anyone who already has SP3 hardware, this offering represents exceptional value.
