AMD has published preliminary pricing for its upcoming Epyc 9006 Venice server processor lineup, spanning 31 models from an eight-core Epyc 9106 to a 256-core Epyc 9996 flagship priced at $14,904. The chips span two platforms, SP7 for high memory bandwidth and capacity and SP8 for greater PCIe connectivity, with dual-socket SP7 systems capable of housing 512 Zen 6 cores. AMD says the prices are not yet finalized.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The per-core cost of the top-end 256-core chip works out far cheaper than AMD's 64-core model, suggesting AMD wants to push customers toward larger, denser configurations for consolidation-focused data center workloads. Because pricing is preliminary, the final numbers and market positioning versus Intel's competing server lineups could still shift before launch.
- Epyc Venice pricing ranges from $700 to $14,904 across 31 SKUs.
- Dual-socket SP7 systems can combine two 256-core chips for 512 total cores.
- The 256-core flagship costs about $58 per core versus $125 per core for the 64-core model, favoring high-core-count configurations.
