AMD is looking forward to entering the server and datacenter market with its new high performance CPU for server, “Naples” based on the new “Zen” architecture. If the Ryzen CPUs targeted at consumers are to be used as a benchmark, AMD’s new server CPUs will seriously disrupt the market with their value for money.

AMD Naples is the next generation AMD CPU for servers, being the most powerful CPUs AMD has designed yet with up to 32 cores and 64 threads for the cloud datacenter and traditional on-premise server configurations.

In the preview, AMD compared its new processor against today’s competitive offering, promising to surpass the competition on critical parameters, with 45% more cores, 60% more input / output capacity (I/O), and 122% more memory bandwidth.

Those aren’t plain numbers though, as those specifications help to deliver performance up to 2.5x faster, or even being able to process an analysis that the competition has entirely failed to work with.

AMD Naples is a highly scalable SoC architecture, with up to 32 cores and 64 threads and industry leading memory bandwidth at 8-channels of memory per CPU. In a 2-socket server, it will support up to 32 DIMMs of DDR4 in 16 memory channels, delivering up to 4 terabytes of total memory capacity.

The AMD first CPU for server are scheduled to be available in Q2 2017, with volume availability in the second half of the year through OEM and channel partners.

Pokdepinion: Most of us knows that AMD Ryzen has literally killed Intel’s high performance chip in most benchmarks save for gaming. With Naples, can we expect the same thing to happen? Will we see the rebirth of SeaMicro soon?
