AMD Claims Next-Gen Zen 6 Server CPU Will Deliver 330% of Nvidia Vera's Performance per Rack

AMD says its Zen 6 Venice server chips will use 256 cores and 512 threads to deliver 3.3 times Vera's per-rack performance.

  • AMD projects its upcoming Zen 6 Epyc Venice CPUs will deliver 3.3 times the per-rack performance of Nvidia's Vera CPUs, based on a 100 kW deployment comparison.
  • Following Nvidia's formal launch of its Vera CPU at GTC in March, the server battle between AMD and Nvidia has intensified as both companies trade performance estimates.
  • Challenging Nvidia on per-core performance, AMD claims a 64-core Venice chip beats Vera by 27%, though the company notes results are "intended to provide directional comparison rather than direct measured rack benchmarks."
  • Built on Zen 6 architecture, Epyc Venice chips will offer up to 256 cores and 512 threads, with Team Red's next data center platform launching later this year.
  • Intel's Nova Lake chips are expected to emerge early next year, while AMD aims to introduce the Zen 7 architecture on TSMC's A14 node for further performance gains.
