What changed

AMD announced on 10 November the general availability of its 6th Gen EPYC SP7 server processors, based on the Zen 6 architecture, with systems shipping from server makers and Microsoft Azure and OCI cloud instances due soon. AMD positions the chips for agentic AI as well as enterprise and cloud work: high-frequency host-node parts run at up to 5.3 GHz, and AMD claims performance and performance-per-watt leads over Nvidia Vera and Intel Xeon 6980P systems (AMD's own comparisons). It also announced AMD Helion racks in three versions: Helion Liquid, designed to sit beside its Helios rack-scale GPU systems, Helion Air for existing air-cooled data centres, and Helion Air Inference, with some configurations reaching 73,728 threads per rack. One AMD estimate is based on a 35 kW rack power envelope.
