At just under $15,000, the EPYC 9965 uses the Zen 5c core architecture has 192 cores and 384 threads and will compete against Intel Granite Rapids Xeon 6 range as well as Ampere’s AmpereOne server CPUs. It has a base CPU speed of 2.25GHz with a TDP of 500W (AMD’s highest ever) and 384MB L3 cache.

At this point, AMD EPYC is certainly a brand which needs no introduction. AMD's dense server processors, based on its Zen 5 and Zen 5c core architecture, build on AMD's origins to offer many-core solutions with huge compute resources and capabilities that continue to outstrip what people might have considered possible just a few generations ago.
