According to her, historically the share of Opteron processors in certain periods exceeded 25%, but with the EPYC processors the company plans to occupy about 10% of the market for the next two years. At the same time, the company considers EPYC processors as good competitors for server versions of Skylake, pointing to the advantage in the capabilities of the memory system and the number of cores available for dual-processor systems. In the demonstration of the speed level, EPYC engineering samples were used, which have lower performance than serial copies. Lisa So also confirmed that all EPYC models will support the same number of PCI Express lines and memory modes.
