Dell triples bet on amd epyc rome thanks to its architecture

Battle veteran AMD rises from the ashes. After turning the battle of user-oriented processors around, the red team wants to gain relevance in the world of servers with its proposal for AMD Epyc Rome processors.

The new line of AMD EPYC processors arrive with force and Dell has already spoken about it

As we already know, for some time now AMD has revived as the great hardware company it once was. Its new graphics are powerful and powerful and its processors compete with those of the everlasting blue team. However, the war does not end there, since the Texan company wants to regain lost ground in the world of the Internet.

Recently, the Dell company has spoken about the next line of AMD Epyc processors with the Rome architecture, which will reach up to 64 cores and 128 threads thanks to the 7nm transistors of TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company).

This new architecture will bring interesting features, among which the inclusion of even smaller transistors stands out, which will mean a reduction in temperature, greater energy efficiency and, of course, more cores. Thanks to that and the compatibility with PCIe 4.0 the estimations propitiate a bright future for the hardware company indicating that possibly the AMD processors will offer, for the same price, better performance than the competitive processors. On the other hand, rumors speak that the 32-core variant will have up to 13% speed-up in IPCs (Instructions Per Cycle) compared to the previous generation.

Positive statements regarding AMD EPYC Rome

The statements of the Manager in Storage and Computing Dominique Vanhamme to ITPro are positive on the subject.

"Let's say, for every 50 platforms we have today, 3 of them are AMD - We will probably triple that number by the end of this year."

Especially when compared to last year's statements by Dell's Chief Technology Officer, John Roese. "AMD is doing interesting things and, adding them to our portfolio, we are entering new areas, but let's be clear: There is a dominant champion in the semiconductor world and there is an applicant, who is doing a very good job innovating called AMD, but the space between them is very large in terms of market and use cases. Our portfolio will not change in any relevant way. Don't expect a duopoly in the short term. " After this week's meeting, Roese had to back down, which is only good news for AMD.

Dominique Vanhamme has also highlighted that a large part of the decision is due to the request of customers for more AMD, a request that has been much higher than expected.

We can make it clear that AMD has put the batteries, but still has a lot of career to recover. We believe that the future is promising for the hardware company and we hope that the competition between the two big media will live up to what consumers expect.
