The next generation Epyc processors, Epyc 9005 (“Turin”), will launch the Zen 5 architecture in 2024 and are now already in the wild in the form of engineering samples. Even before desktop CPUs based on Zen 5 appear, professionals will be able to take advantage of the latest microarchitecture in the server sector. The first development processors (“engineering samples”) are already showing up.
Epyc 9005 with up to 192 Zen 5(c) processor cores
Like the one known for such information “@Yuuki_Ans” has now announced via the short message service The so-called Dense variant, which currently offers a maximum of up to 128 Zen 4c processor cores as the Epyc 9004 (“Bergamo”), is expected to be implemented with up to 192 cores with Zen 5c. The next generation (“Venice”) will be based on Zen 6 can then offer up to 256 processor cores and 512 threads.
Still based on the SP5 socket with 6,096 pins, Epyc 9005 (“Turin”) will take another step forward in terms of memory and will support DDR5-6000 in the future. Thanks to the further significant increase in processor cores, the maximum power loss (“TDP”) is to be “enlarged” from the previous 400 watts to 500 watts. When it comes to manufacturing processes, the three state-of-the-art nodes N4, N4P and N4X from TSMC are ideal.
Epyc will start in 2024
AMD Epyc 9005 (“Turin”) will start in 2024, before the desktop processors, which are expected to be marketed as Ryzen 9000 (“Granite Ridge”), will follow later in the year. The PCGH editorial team has summarized all information about Zen 5(c) in a detailed special and classified it accordingly.
When does it start?
It can currently be assumed that the Zen 5 architecture will celebrate its premiere in the first quarter of 2024 in the server processors of the Epyc 9005 series (“Turin”) and from the second half of the year in the desktop processors (“Granite Ridge”) and the first APUs (“Strix Point”) are used. We will probably have to wait until early/mid-2025 for “Strix Halo” and “Fire Range”.
