I need to decide between two dedicated servers for a very resource intensive site.... which one would you think is better?

Dual AMD EPYC 7282
CPU: 16 cores/ 32 threads @ 2.8 GHz (3.2 GHz)
RAM: 128 GB DDR4 • ECC Server Grade
Disk Drive: 4 x 1.92 TB SSD NVMe Software RAID

Dual Xeon Gold 5320T
CPU: 20 cores/ 40 threads @ 2.3 GHz (3.5 GHz)
RAM: 128 GB DDR4 • ECC Server Grade
Disk Drive: 4 x 1 TB SSD NVMe Software RAID
 
I would go with the AMD. 64MB L3 cache vs 30MB. And the L3 cache is faster on the AMD too. This goes a long way to reducing tail latencies.
