AMD EPYC 9755 Leaked: 128 Cores, Record L3 Cache, & Unrivaled Power

In the Q4 2023 earnings call, AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su confirmed that the new generation of Zen 5 architecture products will be gradually released in the second half of 2024. This includes the codename “Turin,” representing the all-new EPYC 9005 series server processors designed for server platforms.

Recently, it was revealed that AMD is preparing the EPYC 9755 server processor, featuring 128 cores and 256 threads, with a base clock of 2.7 GHz and a boost clock of 4.1 GHz. Compared to the previous generation’s 96-core EPYC 9654, which has 384MB of L3 cache, the EPYC 9755 offers a 33% increase in L3 cache, making it the largest L3 cache capacity in a non-3D V-Cache EPYC product to date.

AMD has also increased the core count in the Zen 5 architecture-based EPYC 9005 series server processors. The EPYC 9755 shares the same core count as the flagship product EPYC 9754, codenamed “Bergamo,” which uses the Zen 4c architecture and offers 32 more cores than the Zen 4 architecture-based EPYC 9654. Additionally, AMD is preparing a Zen 5c architecture variant rumored to feature up to 192 cores and 384 threads.
