How the server CPU ladder is ranked

Every CPU on this ladder has at least one published SPEC CPU 2017 result, and every score links back to it. CPUs within 3% of a tier's best score share a rank.

Score: The best published SPECrate®2017_int_base result for the CPU, divided by the number of chips in the tested system. The per-socket value is derived by HardwareLadder and is not an official SPEC metric.
Coverage: Data-center server CPUs: Xeon E5/E7, Xeon Scalable, Xeon 6 and 6+, EPYC 7001–9005 and 8004/8005, plus Arm server CPUs from Ampere, Huawei, and ZTE.
Not listed: Entry parts built from desktop silicon (Xeon E, Xeon 6300, EPYC 4004/4005), edge SoCs (Xeon D, Xeon 6 SoC), workstation CPUs, and chips with no published result, such as NVIDIA Grace and AWS Graviton.
Specifications: Boost clock, TDP, and launch date come from Wikipedia processor tables. Core count, base clock, and L3 cache fall back to the SPEC result disclosure.
