There are reasons for folks to wait for the PRO. * First are the EPYC memory protection features. No other Ryzen SKU has them. I actually care about these protection and isolation features. * Second are the GE variants. Think similar to Intel’s T and TE variants. These are super binned for extra low power consumption. An 8750GE will be binned to actually be at max performance at a 35W TDP. Yes, you could set a G to Eco Mode or whatever, but I’ve done those experiments with 5700Gs and 5700Xs, and the performance nor power consumption is not quite there compared to the GE versions. * Last is AMD DASH support. Think Intel vPro IPMI without needing a dedicated BMC (just an onboard NIC that supports DASH). Non-PRO Ryzen SKUs do not support DASH. I won’t be waiting regardless as my 5750GEs are good for many more years still, but the PRO variants genuinely have real differentiating features. |
