In this article I kicked things off with a variety of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) Linux benchmarks at the default BIOS configuration and with the AI/ML tuning recommendations. For making it representative of end-user experiences, rather than using the AMD reference server platform I used the recently-assembled Supermicro H13SSL-N Socket SP5 motherboard with EPYC 9005 series support.
