Website WCCFTech, , shared a new portion of details about future updates. Thus, the source said that the server version of Zen will be held on board controller PCI Express 3.0 with support 128 lines. All this wealth will be directed, first of all, to the "massive support for GPU". Depending on the configuration of shelf PC processors Naples will be held from 4 to 6 cards with a direct connection to the processor.
The remaining lines will be used for the organization of the local disk system. In the case of Naples with 4 graphics cards in 1U height system can be up to 32 drives with support NVMe. For shelf PC connection 2U height allowed 6 graphics cards and up to 26 NVMe-drives. To communicate with other servers and to access selected data sets, there are two or one channel InfiniBand EDR. A system with 4-card company calls "Maximize Compute Density" - a computer system with a maximum
density, but a system with a 6-card - "Maximize Performance / Node", or the maximum performance per node.
Apart from these two "extreme" AMD configurations certifies a number of other server configurations with Zen processors. Sled server: 2P with fastening on a sled (a lot of CPU, 1 or 2 GPU) and blade-servers 2P . Video cards in all cases can be performed by PCI Express (add-on cards), MCM and MXM. Finally, AMD Zen Naples processors support 8 memory channels to find enthusiastic support among supercomputers, because AMD Zen challenge the powerful Intel Xeon. Related Products :
