EPYC 9654 vs Xeon 6760P
The EPYC 9654 and the Xeon 6760P are both server processors we supply tested from Hong Kong, and the figures below are the same ones published on each product page. They share the same supply and warranty terms and separate on cores / threads, tdp, cache, so the decision is less about "which is better" and more about which of those differences your platform or workload can actually use.
Nothing on this page is a price: component pricing moved too fast in 2026 for a printed figure to stay honest, so both are quoted on request against confirmed stock with the date the quote holds until. If you are replacing a part, send the platform and we will confirm the population before you commit.

Rows that differ are highlighted. Figures are the same ones published on each product page; where a figure is community-sourced rather than vendor-published it is stated on that page. Confirm every part against your build sheet when ordering.
Where they differ
- ·EPYC 9654 has the higher core count (96 vs 64); Xeon 6760P trades that for something else.
- ·Xeon 6760P is the better figure for power draw (360W (configurable) vs 330 W / Intel 3).
- ·EPYC 9654 has the higher cache (384 vs 320); Xeon 6760P trades that for something else.
- ·Memory — EPYC 9654: 12-channel DDR5-4800; Xeon 6760P: DDR5 (6400 MT/s) - 8 channels, no MRDIMM support.
- ·PCIe — EPYC 9654: PCIe Gen5, 128 lanes; Xeon 6760P: PCIe 5.0, 88 lanes / 4 UPI links.
- ·EPYC 9654 lists the higher base clock (2.4GHz base / 3.7GHz max boost vs 2.2 GHz base / 3.8 GHz max turbo).
Decision
Which one to buy
For processors the useful split is throughput versus frequency. More cores per socket wins on virtualisation density, parallel batch work and multi-tenant hosting, where the scheduler can keep every core busy; higher base and boost clocks win where the workload is latency-sensitive or licensed per core, and the extra cores would sit idle. Check the socket and the platform's memory generation before anything else: a CPU is only useful in a board that takes it, and the two models above are interchangeable only when the socket matches. TDP also sets the cooling and power budget per node.
Choose the EPYC 9654 if
- ·You need more core count — the EPYC 9654 lists 96 cores / 192 threads against 64 cores / 128 threads on the Xeon 6760P.
- ·You need more cache — the EPYC 9654 lists 384MB L3 + 96MB L2 against 320 MB on the Xeon 6760P.
- ·Memory: 12-channel DDR5-4800
Choose the Xeon 6760P if
- ·You need lower power draw — the Xeon 6760P lists 330 W / Intel 3 against 360W (configurable) on the EPYC 9654.
- ·Memory: DDR5 (6400 MT/s) - 8 channels, no MRDIMM support
- ·PCIe: PCIe 5.0, 88 lanes / 4 UPI links

Frequently asked questions
How much do the EPYC 9654 and the Xeon 6760P cost?
We do not publish prices for either: DRAM and CPU pricing moved too fast in 2026 for a printed figure to stay honest. Send the quantity, the platform and the condition you want and we quote both against confirmed stock, with the date the figure holds until.
What is the main difference between the EPYC 9654 and the Xeon 6760P?
Cores / Threads (EPYC 9654: 96 cores / 192 threads; Xeon 6760P: 64 cores / 128 threads); TDP (EPYC 9654: 360W (configurable); Xeon 6760P: 330 W / Intel 3); Cache (EPYC 9654: 384MB L3 + 96MB L2; Xeon 6760P: 320 MB).
Can I use the EPYC 9654 and the Xeon 6760P in the same system?
No. They use different sockets (SP5 (LGA 6096) vs see spec), so they need different server platforms and cannot share a board.
Which one should I buy?
Buy the one whose strong points match the job: see the "Choose" section above. If you are replacing an existing part, send the platform or the old part number and we will confirm compatibility before you order.
What condition are they in, and do you ship worldwide?
Both are supplied tested with a 1-year written warranty. Condition is stated line by line before you order — new, decommissioned pull or OEM tray — and we ship worldwide from the Hong Kong warehouse with full export documentation, typically 3–7 days by air.
