New AMD processors
The ThinkSystem SR645 server now supports the new AMD EPYC 7003 Series Processors with AMD 3D V-Cache ("Milan-X"). These are high-performance processors which have 768MB of L3 cache. These processors are best suited for Electronic Design Automation (EDA) and Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) workloads.
These new processors can now be configured with the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR645.
