AMD's Madhu Rangarajan, corporate VP of Compute and Enterprise AI, says the company never set out to build its Zen 6 EPYC 9006 "Venice" chips around agentic AI, a not-so-subtle dig at NVIDIA and Arm, which both pitch their latest server CPUs as made for that exact job. Rangarajan still called EPYC 9006 the best CPU for agentic workloads during a media session covered by Tom's Hardware . Chief Zen architect Mike Clark said much the same in a separate talk, admitting AMD didn't see agentic computing coming, though he added that the company always expected the CPU to keep a role in AI software…

Advanced Micro Devices Inc. today debuted a new line of central processing units for servers. The Epyc 6 series, which is also known as Venice, comprises 10 CPUs that are organized into two groups. The first set includes chips with a large number of relatively slow cores. The remaining CPUs feature fewer, higher-frequency cores. Both […] The post AMD introduces Epyc 6 processors for AI agent workloads appeared first on SiliconANGLE .

AMD MEXT is a brand new memory solution that utilizes Flash to mitigate DRAM costs and supply concerns across EPYC CPUs. AMD MEXT Aims To Address The Ongoing DRAM Crisis Through An Innovative "Flash-Based" Memory Solution The memory supercycle continues to rage, and supply/demand continues to worsen. Today, the DRAM cost alone makes up 75% of the total server cost, and DRAM manufacturers face shortages that show no sign of ending. Although DRAM prices have seen a major reduction over time if we compare the ~$50M / GB cost from the 1970s to ~$8 / GB in the 2010s (a […]
