QCT Systems Now Support 3^rd Gen AMD EPYC™ Processors with AMD 3D V-Cache™ Technology Across Product Lineup

SAN JOSE, Calif.—March 21, 2022—Quanta Cloud Technology (QCT), a global data center solution provider, announced its support of AMD EPYC™ 7003 Series processors with AMD 3D V-Cache™ technology. QCT systems leveraging 3^rd Gen AMD EPYC™ processors with AMD 3D V-Cache™ technology help customers achieve breakthrough performance per core, while offering exceptional energy efficiency and modern security features.

3^rd Gen AMD EPYC™ Processors with AMD 3D V-Cache™ Technology

AMD EPYC™ 7003 Series processors with AMD 3D V-Cache™ technology triple the amount of available L3 cache to 768MBs per socket versus standard EPYC 7003 Series^[1], helping deliver faster time-to-results on targeted workloads like EDA, CFD, and FEA software and solutions while providing socket compatibility with existing AMD EPYC™ 7003 Series platforms^[2]. By increasing the pool of L3 cache that lowers latency and is closer to the core than its main memory, AMD EPYC™ 7003 Series processors with AMD 3D V-Cache technology utilize the same shared memory architecture as the rest of the 3^rd Generation EPYC™ family. That means customers can now take advantage of up to 96MB of L3 cache per CCD without sacrificing performance, even on lower core count and mainstream processors.

“Raising the bar once more for breakthrough performance, 3^rd Gen AMD EPYC processors with AMD 3D V-Cache technology accelerate critical product design and technical computing workloads by vertically stacking L3 cache using our ground-breaking packaging technology. This provides the performance and energy efficiency needed for critical, compute-intensive workloads enabling faster time-to-results,” said Ram Peddibhotla, corporate vice president, EPYC product management, AMD. “3^rd Gen AMD EPYC processors with AMD 3D V-Cache technology are also socket compatible with existing 3^rd Gen EPYC platforms enabling customers to get up and running quickly and driving better business outcomes.”
