I am planning to buy a tower server for material simulation code like VASP, Quantum Espresso. These code use intel MKL library intensively. Recent milan processors are faster in every benchmark in openbenchmark sites. But in case of optimized library, i have found in various posts that intel xeon gets benifits from their mkl library, so the overall performance is much higher in xeon. MKL although runs on amd platform, but after mkl version 2020 amd processors performance goes down due to crippling by intel. My questions is
1. Considering all these facts what would be the best processor ( between two intel xeon 4316 and one epyc 7513) for running numerical computational codes like VASP and Quantum Espresso?
