At the European launch in Rome, Italy AMD in the present day highlighted the rising adoption of 2nd Gen AMD EPYC processors throughout cloud, enterprise and HPC clients. “Today, we are proud to have new platforms from Dell and new customers adopting 2nd Gen AMD EPYC for cloud, enterprise computing and HPC,” stated Forrest Norrod, senior vp and common supervisor, Datacenter and Embedded Solutions Business Group. “We continue to take the AMD EPYC processor to new heights and are thrilled to have the ecosystem supporting us across hardware, software and cloud providers as we face the challenges of the modern data center head-on.”
AMD additionally introduced a brand new addition to the 2nd Generation AMD EPYC household, the AMD EPYC 7H12 processor. The 64 core/128 thread, 2.60 GHz base frequency, 3.30 GHz max enhance frequency, 280 W TDP processor is particularly constructed for HPC clients and workloads, utilizing liquid cooling to ship management supercomputing efficiency. In an ATOS testing on their BullSequana XH2000, the brand new AMD EPYC 7H12 processor achieved a LINPACK rating of ~ 4.2 TeraFLOPS, ~11% higher than the AMD EPYC 7742 processor.
