$NVDA claimed Vera superiority in recent benchmarks
But there are caveats
They compared Vera, a 2026 CPU, against $AMD’s EPYC 9575F, a 2024 CPU
Vera was 10% faster than AMD’s EPYC 9575F on the geometric mean of the tested workloads
However, the real competitor to Vera will be AMD’s Venice / Zen 6
Also, the benchmarks were limited. NVIDIA controlled the initial access, and the workload set was focused on areas closer to Vera’s intended use cases
These were NVIDIA-permitted benchmarks, power consumption could not be measured, and Phoronix explicitly said this was only a subset of its normal full testing process
