Shifting AMD's server-grade processor line to TSMC's Arizona facility marks the first time the U.S. company will produce these chips domestically, eliminating the supply chain risks associated with manufacturing at TSMC's Taiwan-based fabs. 

"We want to have a very resilient supply chain, so Taiwan continues to be a very important part of that supply chain, but the United States is also going to be important and we're expanding our work there, including our work with TSMC and other key supply chain partners," Su said. 

News that AMD's fifth-generation EPYC will be produced in America comes one day after Nvidia unveiled new initiatives aimed at strengthening America's chip manufacturing sector:

Nvidia is localizing AI chip and supercomputer manufacturing in the U.S. for the first time, partnering with TSMC, Foxconn, Wistron, Amkor, and SPIL.

Over 1 million square feet of manufacturing space has been commissioned for Blackwell chips and AI supercomputers in Arizona and Texas.

Mass production of these chips is expected within 12–15 months.

Total AI infrastructure by Nvidia could total $500 billion over the next four years.

Restoring U.S. chipmaking capacity is critical for several reasons, but national security stands above all. China can easily disrupt chip supply chains in Taiwan—something that could send shockwaves around the world, impacting U.S. defense production of missiles, tanks, and other critical systems, many of which rely on chips fabricated overseas. 

If the U.S. intends to compete—and win—in the 2030s, the ongoing expansion of domestic chip manufacturing is not just welcome news; it's essential for survival.

ThinkSystem SR685a V3 Rack Server Uses 4th Gen AMD EPYC

ThinkSystem SR685a V3

Many businesses are still looking for methods to use generative AI, even since ChatGPT sparked a lot of interest in the field some 20 months ago. Robert Daigle of Lenovo claims that utilising  AI can be difficult when dealing with large amounts of data. Often, expensive GPU deployments and sizable language models are required. But that’s only one possible outcome. According to Robert, some businesses require assistance in even knowing where to begin.

Although Lenovo is well-known worldwide for being a dominant producer of personal and business systems, the multinational corporation also offers AI services and solutions to companies in a variety of industries. Robert is in charge of Lenovo’s worldwide AI division, which helps customers set objectives, solve problems, and create infrastructures that maximise the benefits of AI.

AMD and Lenovo: Appropriately sized AI for businesses

Robert stated, “You don’t need a GPU for everything.” “Not every use case requires the greatest performance interconnected accelerators. That’s excellent if you’re attempting to train a model with more than 100 billion parameters from scratch. It’s a wise decision to have that much powerful computing power in a system with networked GPUs. However, many commercial clients will only be considering inferencing and perhaps some fine-tuning. and a tendency towards smaller language models is also present.”

CPUs and lightweight accelerators are more than sufficient for inferencing and smaller language models, according to Robert. Thus, giving customers additional choices and freedom is a crucial component of Lenovo’s “AI for All” agenda. Lenovo gives businesses more options by offering a large selection of both hardware and software.

AMD’s Instinct MI300X GPUs

Lenovo unveiled a line of HCI devices and servers in April that handle “compute intensive workloads” and hybrid AI-centric infrastructure systems. Among these is the ThinkSystem SR685a V3. AMD’s Instinct MI300X GPUs and various GPU alternatives, along with 4th generation AMD EPYC processors, power the ThinkSystem SR685a V3. The system is made to work with both public and on-premise AI cloud services.

Lenovo also contributes to addressing security, removing bias from  AI, and environmental protection issues. Lenovo discloses a multi-step assessment procedure that was originally developed for internal usage to help customers build ethical and responsible AI.

Regarding energy usage, Robert stated that businesses are understandably concerned about electricity usage. The fact that some data centres consume as much electricity as small nations astounded him. He suggested that using energy-efficient processors, like AMD EPYC CPUs, and possibly liquid cooling are answers for businesses using LLMs.

ThinkSystem SR685a V3 Features

Boosted Processing for  AI and HPC

An 8U2S rack server designed for demanding AI and HPC tasks is the ThinkSystem SR685a V3. Utilising industry-leading 4th Generation AMD EPYC Processors, it is accelerated for intensive computation, supports 8x of the newest GPUs, and connects at the quickest transfer rate via AMD’s Infinity Fabric or NVIDIA’s NVLink. With its computer capability, it can handle tasks like scientific research, financial technology, modelling, training, and rendering.

Option and Adaptability

The variety of choice provided by the open architecture design of the ThinkSystem SR685a V3 allows it to be modified to meet specific workload requirements.

You’ll find everything you need, whether you decide to use the NVIDIA H100/H200/B100 or the MI300x to run AMD on AMD. Whichever suits you best will depend on your availability and workload requirements.

Superior User Interface

With the ThinkSystem SR685a V3, they at Lenovo go above and beyond the norm to provide a premium user experience. To do this by incorporating easy systems administration, robust power supply, and thermals for next-generation GPUs.Image Credit To AMD

With power supply that provide complete N+N redundancy without throttling, this workhorse offers the highest level of resilience.

This computer, which uses N+1 hot-swap fans for air cooling, has enough thermal headroom to support both current and next GPUs with greater power.

Lenovo XClarity systems software is pre-installed on the ThinkSystem SR685a V3 to facilitate deployment and management.

Sweep of Stars (2022)

"The beauty in blackness is its ability to transform. Like energy we are neither created nor destroyed, though many try." - West African Proverb

The Muungano empire strived and struggled to form a utopia when they split away from old earth. Freeing themselves from the endless wars and oppression of their home planet in order to shape their own futures and create a far-reaching coalition of city-states that stretched from Earth and Mars to Titan.

With the wisdom of their ancestors, the leadership of their elders, the power and vision of their scientists and warriors they charted a course to a better future. But the old powers could not allow them to thrive and have now set in motion new plots to destroy all that they've built.

In the fire to come they will face down their greatest struggle yet.

Amachi Adisa and other young leaders will contend with each other for the power to galvanize their people and chart the next course for the empire.

Fela Buhari and her elite unit will take the fight to regions not seen by human eyes, but no training will be enough to bring them all home.

Stacia Chikeke, captain of the starship Cypher, will face down enemies across the stars, and within her own vessel, as she searches for the answers that could save them all.

The only way is forward.

Breath of Oblivion (2024)

Beyond the Orun Gate, Epyc Ro and her elite soldiers are stranded. Capturing an alien ship and searching for a way home, they discover a stowaway who may be the key to overcoming the alien forces swarming all around them.

On board the Cypher, Captain Stacia Chikeke is struggling to keep her ship and its fractured crew together. But the discovery of an interstellar phenomenon and the opportunity to explore unites them in a singular purpose, for now.

In the slums of Indianapolis, Wachiru Adisa works to free the children of the diaspora detained in Old Earth facilities, only to be captured and sent to a nightmarish criminal justice facility, the Panopticon.

On Old Earth, Ishant Sangsuwangul is the newly assigned liaison to the corporate entity running the government there. He feels like a prisoner, but must find a way to stem the tide of conflict as animosity toward his people grows.

In the Badlands of Mars, Amachi Adisa and her new teacher Nehanda begin her training to learn from her past, chart her future, and unlock the power that is her birthright.

In the Dreaming City, the lunar heart of Muungano power, Maulana Buhari struggles with how to lead his people. Is now the time for isolation or aggression?

Together they, and all of Muungano, will guide the empire forward by any means necessary, as enemies of old and new extraterrestrial threats mount.

In the server segment, AMD already occupies almost a quarter of the market AMD has significantly increased its share in the processor market, according to recent statistics from Mercury Research. [caption id="attachment_81293" align="aligncenter" width="728"] AMD[/caption] At the moment, AMD already occupies 19.4% of the entire CPU market. A year ago, the company’s share was 15%, and a quarter ago – 17.3%, that is, the growth is very significant. AMD is not going to ease the pressure on Intel. The biggest impact on the overall share comes from the server segment, where AMD has surged beyond its 20 percent share. The company now holds 23.3% compared to 17.5% a year earlier! Let us remember that several years ago Intel said that its goal was to prevent AMD from occupying 10-15% of the server market. As you can see, AMD has already more than doubled the lower limit of this range. [caption id="attachment_81294" align="aligncenter" width="780"] AMD[/caption] In the desktop CPU market, everything is also very good: growth from 13.9% to 19.2%, although in quarterly terms there is a slight decline, since in the second quarter AMD’s share was 19.4%. As for mobile processors, there is also growth, and also excellent: from 15.7% to 19.5%. We also note that in monetary terms, AMD as a whole occupies 16.9% of the market, but in the server segment it is already almost 30%!
