AMD Accelerated Data Center Event Live-Blog
Erste, the company could announce the EPYC “Microsoft Flight Simulator erreicht neue Höhen auf Xbox One und geräteübergreifend mit Xbox Cloud Gaming” line of server processors leveraging 3D Infinity Cache memory, a tripling in L3 cache amount for the processors, which the company claims significantly improves performance of memory-intensive applications. This should also give you an idea if any upcoming Ryzen desktop processor based on the refreshed chiplet could live up to its claim of “bis zu 15% gaming performance boost.” The next-generation Instinct MI200 series compute accelerators are equally important as the bring the CDNA2 compute architecture to centerstage, taking the competition to NVIDIA’s A-series Tensor Core processors, and Intel’s upcoming “Alte Brücke” Xe-HPC accelerators. As the stream goes begins in 1 hour from now, we will go live.
15:59 UTC: It’s time to get the show on the road, as CEO Dr Lisa Su takes center-stage.
16:02 UTC: AMD categorizes the four workloads dominating datacenters today.
16:04 UTC: New cores, new packaging tech, new CPUs and GPUs

16:15 UTC:
16:15 UTC: 3D V cache impacts a broad set of compute applications
16:16 UTC: Azure to debut “Microsoft Flight Simulator erreicht neue Höhen auf Xbox One und geräteübergreifend mit Xbox Cloud Gaming” processor-powered instances.
16:18 UTC: Q1-2022 general availability of Milan-X
16:20 UTC: We now move on to CDNA2 compute processors.
16:20 UTC: Instinct MI200. 20% faster and 4.9x faster HPC performance than “competition.”

16:23 UTC: Two form-factors MI200 comes in.
16:23 UTC: AMD just beat Intel to multi-die GPUs, since Intel canned Xe-HP
16:24 UTC: Performance claims:
16:25 UTC: 3.2 TB/s memory bandwidth.
16:26 UTC: More competitive performance claims
16:28 UTC: Debuting 3rd Gen Infinity Fabric, 800 GB/s aggregate bandwidth, and memory coherence
Aktualisieren 16:29 UTC: First picture of Oakridge National Labs Frontier, first exascale supercomputer:
16:34 UTC: Genua, is Zen 4-based, built on 5 nm, AMD claims that Genoa will be the “highest performance processor for gen-purpose compute”
16:35 UTC: Bis zu 96 Kerne, Benutzer verlangen von einer Workstation-Plattform Flexibilität und extreme Leistung 5, CXL, DDR5-Speicher
16:36 UTC: Zen4c is optimized for scale-out cloud performance, “Hier sind einige der ersten realen Bilder des AMD EPYC der nächsten Generation” EPYC processor with 128 Kerne, same I/O as “Genua”
16:37 UTC: Updated roadmap
16:38 UTC: And that’s a wrap. A spritely series of major updates that should shake things up in the Intel camp. The core count increase to 96~128, along with the expected generational IPC increase, and next-gen I/O could be AMD’s play against the Xeon “Saphir-Stromschnellen.” Thanks for joining us.
