AMD Lisa Su announced during her Computex 2024 keynote that the company's hotly anticipated 5th-Gen EPYC Turin processors will launch in the second half of 2024. The 3nm chips mark the debut of AMD's Zen 5 architecture for data center chips, and AMD claims they are up to 5.4x faster than Intel's competing current-gen Xeon chips in key AI workloads. Turin comes in two variants: one with up to 128 standard Zen 5 cores and another using density-optimized CPU cores called Zen 5c — that model stretches up to 192 cores. Su also announced that AMD now has 33% of the data center market.

Intel heeft twee weken voor de start van de Computex-beurs alvast een tipje van de sluier opgelicht over de aankondigingen die we van de processorfabrikant kunnen verwachten. De cpu-maker geeft de eerste details over Lunar Lake vrij, en bevestigt nieuwe desktop-cpu's voor Q4.

A recent study published in the IEEE's Transactions on Cloud Computing journal has demonstrated that Alibaba Cloud's 128-core Yitian 710 processor, developed in 2021, is currently the most efficient Arm-based server processor for database tasks in large-scale cloud environments, reports The Register. The research conducted by Dumitrel Loghin from the National University of Singapore, showcases the Yitian 710 outperforming other Arm-based processors and even surpassing Intel's Xeon Platinum in some specific tests.

Intel heeft naar eigen zeggen het grootste neuromorfische computersysteem ter wereld gebouwd. Het systeem, genaamd Hala Point, beschikt over 1152 Loihi 2-chips, die neuronen en synapsen kunnen simuleren en daarmee soortgelijk functioneren als hersenen.
