CPU and System Topology

Server Description

A GPU-accelerated instance featuring AMD Radeon graphics, dedicated EPYC processor cores, and local NVMe SSD storage for graphics-intensive workloads.

GPU AcceleratedStorage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

Amazon Web Services g4ad.2xlarge is a GPU-accelerated instance designed for graphics-intensive workloads. It features an AMD EPYC 7R32 processor with 8 vCPUs, 4 physical cores, and 32.0 GB of DDR4 memory. The instance includes a dedicated AMD Radeon Pro Navi V520 GPU with 8 GB of VRAM and a 300 GB NVMe SSD local instance store. Performance benchmarks show average results for Geekbench ray tracing, image processing, and software compilation, though raw CPU stress-ng performance is weak to poor. Large-block memory bandwidth is also limited, falling in the bottom 25%. This instance is suited for remote workstations, game streaming, and moderate graphics processing where local NVMe storage and AMD GPU acceleration are required, but it is less optimal for heavy compute-bound tasks or large language model inference.

Workload Profiles

0.429Score
Precomputed compound score for Cache Intensive workloads. A weighted average (geometric mean) of benchmark scores compared to their medians: score = ∏ (x_i / m_i)^(w_i / Σw). The score of 1.0 represents a synthetic baseline server with the median performance of each component benchmark; 0.5 means roughly half the performance; and 2.0 means twice the performance of that reference profile. Component weights: 50% Redis RPS (pipeline=1, SET), 20% Redis RPS (pipeline=16, SET), 10% PassMark Memory Mark (composite), 10% Memory bandwidth (read, 16 MB ~ L3), 10% PassMark single-thread CPU. Rationale for component selection: In-memory key-value store workload, mixing direct Redis performance metrics with memory speed and latency benchmarks, and single-core CPU performance profiles.
