AMD EPYC™ 9004 Series Processors

Say hello to the world’s highest performing server CPU.1

4th Gen AMD EPYC™ processors transform what you know about data center processor capabilities, delivering outstanding performance, energy efficiency, and leadership TCO across workloads.

4th Gen AMD EPYC™ the World’s Highest Performing CPU1

4th Gen AMD EPYC processors are on the cutting edge of server processor technology, with up to 96 “Zen 4” cores based on a 5nm process, the strongest server product cores AMD has ever produced.2 Supporting those cores is 1MB per core of L2 Cache, and 32MB per CCD of L3 cache, along with 12 DDR5 channels supporting up to 12TB of memory, CXL™ memory expansion, and PCIe® 5.0 support, offering up to 128 lanes of high bandwidth for the latest graphics and storage technologies.

It’s this rise in both performance and technology that’s enabled the AMD EPYC™ family of processors to achieve more than 300 world records and counting across data management, infrastructure, business applications, and HPC workloads.3

Compared to last generation AMD EPYC processors and competitor products, 4th Gen AMD EPYC™ 9654 processor powered servers deliver up to 3x the cloud performance leadership, 2.5x the HPC performance leadership, and 2.9x the enterprise performance leadership.4,5,6

Performance Without the Energy Price Tag

4th Gen AMD EPYC processors not only deliver outstanding leadership performance across almost every metric when it comes to server processing, they perform those tasks while improving power efficiency measurably over previous generation and competitor products.

In fact, 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors power the most energy efficient x86 servers.

When it comes to performance-per-watt improvements across integer performance, floating point, and NLP throughput, these new 64-core AMD EPYC™ 9534 processors offer up to 2.7x greater results than those of previous generation AMD EPYC products with similar core counts.7

That all culminates in a server processor that prioritizes lower power usage, lower energy costs, and more performance output per server, all essential generational improvements for customers deploying server infrastructure at scale.

AMD EPYC™ Processor Security: Helping Protect Your Data

One of the core pillars of a successful server solution is sufficient security. Those new to the AMD EPYC™ processor platform will appreciate the strong ecosystem of security features AMD has built from the ground up.

AMD Infinity Guard comprises multiple layers of security features, from silicon-level security features with AMD Secure Processor, through to modern container security features and secure memory encryption systems that help protect data before the system is even turned on.8

Building on the state-of-the-art AMD Infinity Guard security feature set, 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors add improved advanced features such as 256-bit AES-XTS encryption and secure multi-key encryption (SMKE) that enables hypervisors to selectively encrypt address space ranges on CXL™ attached memory. This makes the existing software encryption features work seamlessly with CXL-attached memory. This leverages a growing ecosystem of confidential computing that focuses on addressing the special security concerns about migrating sensitive applications and data by encrypting data in-use, in cloud and virtualization environments. Learn more about AMD Infinity Guard, and the technologies used to help protect customer processes and data.

Ultimately, 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors deliver a powerful, efficient, secure environment for a range of workloads in the data center, that out-performs both AMD and competitor products available today and helps reduce operating costs while doing so.

For a brighter future of performance computing, provide 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors to your customers for their next installation. You can find 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors on-shelf now, and available from your local AMD distributor.
