Notes

Shockbyte's AMD EPYC 4464P 12-Core Processor is a modest machine by our lineup's standards. On the flip side, disk i/o lands at just 12% of the category leader, with block updates at 25% — worth weighing if your server leans on that. Performance held within ~8% across 15 runs — a sign of consistent, dedicated resources.
