Back in July AMD announced the EPYC 9006 "Venice" series at their Advancing AI event. Today they are announcing EPYC 9006 series Socket SP7 processor availability and with systems beginning to ship today from their OEM/ODM partners. With that we are also now allowed to begin sharing AMD EPYC 9006 performance benchmark figures. Back in July I expected EPYC 9006 to be a "grand slam" for performance... After hands-on with the 6th Gen EPYC processors, it's a grand slam alright -- out of this world.
