According to our sources, Ryzen yelds are very high at the present moment. About 80% of Ryzen dies have all 8 cores fully functional.

This means that AMD can sell Naples SKUs at a very low average price (4 Die x 8 Core). For this reason Dropbox shows interest in Naples and ThreadRipper: “Dropbox is currently evaluating AMD EPYC CPUs in-house, and we are impressed with the initial performance we see across workloads in single-socket configurations,” said Akhil Gupta, vice president of infrastructure at Dropbox. “The combination of core performance, memory bandwidth, and I/O support make EPYC a unique offering. We look forward to continuing to evaluate EPYC as an option for our infrastructure.”

Also, Zen uArch seems to be very efficient in Cloud Computing tasks.
