The AMD EPYC 7763 is a high-performance data centre processor designed for heavy workloads and high-performance computing (HPC) applications. Released in Q1 of 2021, it leverages AMD's Zen 3 microarchitecture and is built on a 7nm process. With a substantial 64 cores and 128 threads, it runs at a base clock of 2.45 GHz, with boost capabilities up to 3.5 GHz, making it ideal for intensive multi-threaded tasks. Its design includes a large 256 MB L3 cache, enabling quick data access and efficient handling of substantial data loads, while the 280W TDP power requirement reflects its high processing power. The EPYC 7763 supports advanced features for data centres, including AMD's Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) for robust security and AMD Infinity Architecture for scalability. Furthermore, it supports up to 8-channel DDR4-3200 memory and 128 PCIe 4.0 lanes, providing ample bandwidth for complex data centre environments.
