MSI Unveils AMD EPYC 9006-Based Server Platforms
MSI has introduced a new range of server platforms designed to meet the growing demands of AI, cloud computing, and High-Performance Computing (HPC). These next-generation infrastructures are powered by AMD EPYC 9006 Series CPUs based on the Zen 6 architecture, focusing on high compute density and the massive memory bandwidth required for agentic AI workloads.
The AMD EPYC 9006 Series processors deliver up to 256 cores and 512 threads per socket. With support for PCIe Gen6 connectivity and up to 1.6TB/s of memory bandwidth, these CPUs are built for data-intensive environments. MSI expects SP7-based systems to enter the shipping phase in Q4 2026, while SP8 platforms are slated for release in the first half of 2027.
Form Factors and Cooling Solutions
MSI's portfolio covers various deployment scenarios, from accelerator-heavy AI hosts to high-density multi-node systems. For AI-intensive workloads, the MSI CG681-S6093 6U liquid-cooled GPU server is available, supporting up to 8 liquid-cooled GPUs and dual AMD EPYC 9006 CPUs.
For cloud and virtualization, the company offers air-cooled 19-inch DC-MHS multi-node platforms. Additionally, the 21-inch ORv3 Open Compute platforms utilize a 48Vdc busbar power distribution, offering both air-cooled and liquid-cooled options in both SP7 and SP8 configurations.
