AMD Launches EPYC 9005 "Turin" Server Processors


AMD is using their Advancing AI event today to announce 5th Gen EPYC 'Turin' processors.

There is also DDR5-6400 support for some configurations or with upgraded BIOS - it wasn't immediately clear and appears to be a rather last minute bump in order to match DDR5-6400 found with the Intel Xeon 6900P series. There are some new Zen 5 ISA features to benefit EPYC 9005 like Secure AVIC, but to which the Linux driver support is just available in patch form on the mailing list and hasn't yet been upstreamed. Similarly, SEV-SNP CipherTextHiding, secure TSC support for SNP guests, and PCIe TLP Processing Hints (TPH) is also out on the Linux kernel mailing list and patch form but unfortunately not upstreamed in time for launch day.
