Parts/CPUs/AMD EPYC 7402 (Rome)
Why this part
Rome was the generation that made AMD credible again in HPC, and the reason was packaging rather than the core: eight small compute chiplets on TSMC 7nm around one large I/O die on GlobalFoundries 14nm, so only the parts that benefit from an expensive node pay for it. Yield on a small die is dramatically better than on a large one, which is how AMD sold 64 cores while Intel was selling 28. JUWELS Booster used the 24-core part as a host under four A100s.

“Units recorded” sums only the edges where a public source states a quantity. It is a floor, not a total, and should never be read as installed base.
