AMD's Venice-X CPU Launches in 2027 With 1152 MB of 3D V-Cache, 96 Cores and 5.15 GHz Boost Clock

Tom's Hardware, Thursday, July 23rd, 2026

AMD's Zen 6 Venice-X processor arrives in 2027 with 1152 MB of 3D V-Cache, 96 cores and a 5.15 GHz boost clock.

AMD's Venice-X is a Zen 6 server processor scheduled for 2027 that targets high-performance computing workloads.

It pairs 96 cores with 1152 MB of 3D V-Cache and a 5.15 GHz boost clock, an unusually aggressive combination of cache capacity and frequency for a server part.

The chip inherits the major architectural pillars of the broader Venice family. It represents a significant step in AMD's CPU roadmap for cache-sensitive and frequency-sensitive HPC applications.
