In the resounding buzz that AI stirred at Computex 2024 in Taiwan, literally all of the major semiconductor players had something to say, though not all had new technologies that will shape this burgeoning new landscape. AMD, on the other hand, stepped out with a full arsenal of new chip technologies targeted at AI-fueled computing from the client edge to gaming desktops and workstation, and the AI-infused data center. Here’s the 5,000 ft view.
Ryzen 9000 Series processors will range in core counts from Ryzen 5 products at 6-cores and 12 threads to Ryzen 7 8-core / 16-thread CPUs and Ryzen 9 products with 12 and 16-core configs and 24 and 32-thread support, respectively. I’ll be very keen to see how the new Ryzen 9 9950X 16-core top dog chip performs, and will be eager for the day when a 3D V-Cache enabled Ryzen 9 9950X3D is announced, though that’s juston my part at this point.
AMD notes Epyc Turing processors will be available in the second half of this year, with big claims of AI throughput performance advantages over Intel’s currently in-market 5th Gen Xeon 8592+ chips, in two socket server configurations.
Among its various unveilings at Computex, the last but not least bit of hardware news AMD announced was the arrival of its a new version of its Radeon Pro W7900 Series workstation AI and 3D rendering GPU accelerators, with a more compact Radeon Pro W7900 Dual Slot card, strapped with 48GB of GDDR 6 ECC memory, versus the original Radeon Pro W7900 triple-slot design.
