AMD unveils Helion Agentic AI Rack with 32768 CPU cores and 16 accelerators
AMD has announced a new rack-scale computing system called the Helion Agentic AI Rack designed for artificial intelligence agents.
System specifications and performance
The proposed platform combines up to 32,768 Zen 6 x86 CPU cores with 16 Instinct MI350P accelerators. This configuration delivers 74 petaflops of FP4 computing performance alongside 102 Tbps of networking bandwidth.
Workload categories and design
AMD groups agent workloads into three specific categories: personal assistants, enterprise applications, and technical computing. The system uses modular hardware to allow operators to customize CPU core density and power consumption for each category.
Infrastructure requirements for deployment
Traditional data centers may require new power and cooling infrastructure to support this high-performance setup. The hyperscale configuration utilizes CPU-only infrastructure while the enterprise version combines processors with accelerators.
