## Key points

- AMD's EPYC Venice CPUs are the first HPC products in volume on TSMC's 2nm process.
- Venice CPUs offer over 70% performance and efficiency improvement and 30% greater thread density than predecessors.
- The EPYC Venice lineup includes a new 256-core, 512-thread model, up from 192 cores previously.
- AMD will soon ramp Venice 2nm production at TSMC Arizona, boosting U.S. manufacturing capacity.
- Venice's successor, Verano, will use TSMC 2nm and focus on Agentic AI workflows with LPDDR support.

**Companies:** AMD, TSMC
