AMD EPYC™ 7003 Series CPUs Set New
Standard as Highest Performance Server
Processor

 New AMD EPYC processor extends per socket performance leadership and best per core

performance1** with new “Zen 3” cores and modern security features

Partners including AWS, Cisco, Dell Technologies, Google Cloud, HPE, Lenovo, Microsoft

Azure, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, Supermicro, Tencent Cloud and others grow EPYC

processor ecosystem to an expected 400 cloud instances and 100 new OEM platforms by

end of 2021

SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 15, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- At a digital event, AMD
(NASDAQ: AMD) announced the new AMD EPYC™ 7003 Series CPUs, which includes the

AMD EPYC 7763, the world’s highest-performing server processor2*. The new EPYC 7003
series processors help HPC, cloud and enterprise customers do more, faster, by delivering

the best performance of any server CPU with up to 19% more instructions per clock3.

“With the launch of our 3rd Gen AMD EPYC processors, we are incredibly excited to deliver
the fastest server CPU in the world. These processors extend our data center leadership
and help customers solve today’s most complex IT challenges, while substantially growing
our ecosystem,” said Forrest Norrod, senior vice president and general manager, Data
Center and Embedded Solutions Business Group. “We not only double the performance
over the competition in HPC, cloud and enterprise workloads with our newest server CPUs,
but together with the AMD Instinct GPUs, we are breaking the exascale barrier in
supercomputing and helping to tackle problems that have previously been beyond
humanity’s reach.”

AMD EPYC Processors, Powering the Modern Data Center

Available immediately, AMD EPYC 7003 Series Processors have up to 64 “Zen 3” cores per
processor and introduce new levels of per-core cache memory, while continuing to offer the

PCIe® 4 connectivity and class-leading memory bandwidth4 that defined the EPYC 7002
series CPUs. 3rd Gen AMD EPYC processors also include modern security features through

AMD Infinity Guard, supporting a new feature called Secure Encrypted Virtualization-Secure

Nested Paging (SEV-SNP). SEV-SNP expands the existing SEV features on EPYC
processors, adding strong memory integrity protection capabilities to help prevent malicious
hypervisor-based attacks by creating an isolated execution environment. You can read more

about new 3rd Gen AMD EPYC features here.

All these features and capabilities combine to help drive faster time to results and improve
business outcomes for HPC, cloud and enterprise customers.

For HPC customers that demand the most throughput computing capabilities to do
more simulations in a given time period, or use bigger data sets or more complex
models, AMD EPYC 7003 Series processors enable faster time to discovery with more

I/O5 and memory throughput, and powerful “Zen 3” cores that deliver up to twice the
performance for HPC workloads compared to the competition6.

For cloud providers who need compute density and security capabilities, AMD EPYC
7003 Series processors offer the highest core density7, advanced security features
and up to twice the integer performance compared to the competition8.

For the enterprise, where performance and time to value are critical to support the
new “work from anywhere” environment, AMD EPYC 7003 Series processors help
improve efficiency, and deliver value and performance. The new processors increase

transactional database processing by up to 19%9, improve Hadoop big data analytic
sorts by up to 60% with 61% better price to performance than the competition10, and

offer superior performance for flexible Hyperconverged Infrastructure - all of which help
CIOs turn data into actionable insights faster.

Partners Using AMD EPYC 7003 Series Processors
