A reported AMD EPYC 9006 list spans 31 models: nine for SP7 and 22 for SP8. The server-processor platforms differ in core ranges, memory channels and PCIe 6.0 connectivity, while their system schedules remain expectations.
SP7 and SP8: the listed platform differences
| Platform | Listed models | Core range | Memory channels | PCIe 6.0 lanes | Bandwidth per socket with RDIMMs | Bandwidth per socket with MRDIMMs |
| SP7 | 9 | 64–256 | 16 | 96 | 1,024 GB/s | 1,638 GB/s |
| SP8 | 22 | 8–128 | 8 | 128 | 512 GB/s | 819.2 GB/s |
The bandwidth figures are reported per socket and separated by memory type. For SP7, the figures pair 1,024 GB/s with 8,000 MT/s RDIMMs and 1,638 GB/s with 12,800 MT/s MRDIMMs. The SP8 figures are 512 GB/s with RDIMMs and 819.2 GB/s with MRDIMMs.
These are platform specifications, not workload test results. The figures describe different hardware configurations; they do not by themselves establish which platform will perform better for a particular server workload.
Reading EPYC 9006 model and power specifications
The model list marks P variants for single-socket systems (1P only); other listed models are specified for one- or two-socket systems (1P/2P).
AMD uses the label “Default CPU Power” for its processor power specification. The company describes it as power consumed across the compute and I/O dies for the stated performance target. For example, AMD lists 600 W Default CPU Power and a 400–600 W configurable range for the EPYC 9996; the EPYC 9016 is listed at 130 W, with a 130–220 W range.
Expected timing for EPYC 9006 systems
SP7 systems were expected in Q4 2026, while SP8 systems were expected in the first half of 2027.
