Most Expensive and Most Powerful Processors, 128 cores, ~10k USD

By | July 31, 2024

AMD is on a roll these days, imagine 128 cores in a single socket processor, and this great power comes at a cost of near Ten thousand USD. This is what the next generation of EPYC server processors are coming to be and are expected to launch in 2nd half of this year, Here is the list of top processors, this is not it though, AMD is saying that another 192 core monster is in the works too. The greatest part is the TDP, 360Watts for 128 cores is really mind blowing. Servers sporting these monsters should start appearing in a datacenter near you by December 2024.

AMD EPYC 9004 Features:

Built in AI Acceleration

The processors fully support AVX-512, including BFLOAT16 and VNNI instructions, which accelerate artificial intelligence and machine learning applications at the hardware level.

IPC Performance Improvements

AMD has consistently delivered double-digit enhancements in instructions per clock with each new generation of processors, reinforcing the reliability of their performance trajectory.

Infinity Guard Security Features

The AMD Infinity Guard features provide robust security measures, integrating a dedicated security processor to protect your data.

Hybrid Next Gen Architecture

AMD’s hybrid, multi-chip architecture allows three different CPU options, one for balanced workloads and per-core performance (96xx CPUs), one for the highest core density (97xx CPUs), and one with high level 3 cache (CPUs with AMD 3D V-Cache technology). These processors include up to 128 “Zen 4” or “Zen 4c” cores with DDR5 memory bandwidth upto 12 channels.  The innovative AMD chiplet architecture enables high performance, energy-efficient solutions optimized for your different computing needs.
