One thing notable of Sierra Forest is that the CPUs don't have SMT (only 1 thread per core), so in theory it doesn't suffer from speculative execution attacks.
Epyc CPUs still provides more PCIE lanes, which is crucial for GPUs.
I did hear that they're killing off hyper threading which is a bummer but I guess those P cores would make up for it.
