AMD's hotly anticipated 5th-Gen EPYC Turin processors will launch in the second half of 2024, Lisa Su announced during her Computex 2024 keynote. 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.
