AMD’s 31-chip Zen 6 EPYC 9006 lineup spans 8 to 256 cores
AMD has published the complete processor lineup for its sixth-generation Zen 6-based Epyc 9006 series (H/T StorageReview). It reveals 31 server CPUs spanning two platforms. AMD originally introduced the series with its EPYC 9006 "Venice" processors at Advancing AI 2026 in July. While several flagship models and their pricing were already known, the company has now filled out the range with nine SP7 processors and another 22 SP8 models. AMD has also moved away from using TDP for these processors. Its product pages instead quote "Default CPU Power", which encompasses power consumption across the CPU's compute and I/O dies at its specified performance target.
The SP7 platform supports 16 DDR5 memory channels and 96 PCIe 6.0 lanes, with processors ranging from 64 to 256 cores. The flagship EPYC 9996 combines 256 Zen 6c cores and 512 threads with 1,024 MB of L3 cache. It has a 2.55 GHz base clock, boosts to 4.1 GHz and carries a 600 W default CPU power rating. The EPYC 9G76 is also listed as an orderable 96-core processor for $11,622.
Prices quoted by AMD are 1Ku prices, meaning the listed figure represents the per-processor price when purchased in quantities of 1,000 units rather than necessarily what an individual chip will cost through retail channels. That $14,904 price is not itself new. AMD had already used the figure when comparing the Epyc 9996 against Intel's Xeon 6980P in July. The notable development is that AMD has now disclosed pricing and specifications for the rest of the lineup.

The larger Epyc SP8 family extends much further down the stack. These processors use eight DDR5 memory channels but offer 128 PCIe 6.0 lanes, with core counts ranging from eight to 128. AMD also offers several high-frequency "F" variants that can boost to 5 GHz, alongside single-socket "P" models. At the bottom sits the $700 EPYC 9016 with eight cores, 16 threads and a 130 W default CPU power rating. At the other end, the 128-core EPYC 9746 costs $11,679.
