$AMD Venice Outperforms $NVDA Vera by 3x

EPYC Venice may be the leader of the new Agentic CPU push
AMD compares NVIDIA Vera, Intel Xeon 6980P, AMD EPYC 9965 Turin, and future AMD EPYC Venice under a modeled 100 kW rack power budget
AMD says EPYC 9965 delivers 2.37x the rack-level throughput of NVIDIA Vera and around 1.6x the throughput of Intel Xeon 6980P
AMD says future EPYC Venice extends the advantage over NVIDIA Vera to 3.30x
The comparison focuses on CPU-heavy infrastructure for agentic AI, including orchestration, databases, web services, APIs, caches, middleware, and control-plane services
$AMD argues that rack-level performance matters more than single-chip benchmarks because data centers are constrained by power, cooling, floor space, and deployable infrastructure
AMD also says current EPYC Turin deployments can support more than 27,000 CPU cores per rack, while future EPYC Venice could exceed 36,000 cores per rack
However, these are AMD-modeled estimates, not fully independent real-world rack benchmarks
The results should be viewed as a directional comparison, not direct measured rack benchmarks
