    AMD Instinct MI300X: Not the Default for New AI Clusters

    AMD Instinct MI300X remains a formidable accelerator for memory-bound AI inference, but a July 30, 2026 explainer from NASSCOM Community presents it as though it were AMD’s forward-looking flagship rather than a 2023-generation part that has since been overtaken by the MI325X and CDNA 4-based...

    Azure ND MI455X v7 VMs Planned, With No Price or Launch Date

    AMD’s Instinct MI455X is a credible new high-end AI accelerator, but the important announcement is not a single GPU “matching” Nvidia Rubin. It is AMD’s attempt to sell a complete 72-GPU rack design, Helios, into the same hyperscale deployments where Nvidia’s Vera Rubin NVL72 already sets the...

    AMD Instinct MI350P Brings 144GB HBM3E AI Inference to PCIe Servers

    AMD’s Instinct MI350P is showing up in Dell, HPE and Computex server demonstrations because it tackles a neglected corner of the AI market: deployments that need modern high-bandwidth memory but cannot adopt a purpose-built, rack-scale accelerator platform. The 600W PCIe 5.0 x16 card combines...
