You need to also take into account that datacenters won't change hardware every cycle release, so Epyc needs more time to gain market share.

If you're doubting the value and performance, you must be blind.

Define Change? EPYC has been sampling to all HyperScaler since early 2019. And Google has only just released an EPYC instance days ago.

I already gave a value analysis, including AMD's own projected growth. I will leave others to comment on other aspect of your comment.


Yes, the hyperscalers who received early samples all rolled out EPYC deployments - but that was still a small amount of the market.

The simple fact is the server market moves slowly - server roll outs are planned a year in advance, so you need to be patient.
