AMD Details 192-Core Verano EPYC 9006 LP for Agentic AI
AMD has disclosed details of the Verano EPYC 9006 LP processors, built on Zen 6 and Zen 6C architectures with up to six operational CCDs and as many as 192 cores. The design supports LPDDR5X SOCAMM2 memory at up to 8,533 MT/s, provides up to 96 PCIe Gen6 lanes, and targets power-efficient agentic AI host nodes.
The disclosed CPU, memory and I/O specifications position Verano as an infrastructure component for dense agentic AI deployments, with AMD claiming up to 1.5 TB of memory and 0.8 TB/s bandwidth per socket.
AMD is unveiling more details of its Verano "EPYC 9006 LP" CPUs, which feature up to 192 cores, LPDDR5X memory support & made for Agentic AI.
AMD Verano CPU Architecture Disclosed: Up To 6 "Zen 6" CCDs With Up To 192 Cores, & Perf/$ Optimized LPDDR5X SOCAMM2 Support
The AMD EPYC Verano CPUs are built on the same Zen 6 core architecture and are part of the EPYC 9006 "LP" family. The processors are fabricated on an advanced N2P process technology used by the EPYC 9006 "Venice" lineup.
At first glance, it would seem like the chip packs 8 CCDs, but there are only up to 6 operational CCDs, while two are Mechanical CCDs that have been locked out. Verano will come in configs of both Zen 6 (up to 12 cores per CCD) and Zen 6C (up to 32 cores per CCD). That would give us a total of 72 cores / 144 threads for the Zen 6 and 192 cores / 384 threads for the Zen 6C configs.
