Discussion – CDNA 6 / Instinct MI500 series thread

is it 10x?

i really don’t know how to interpret this:

AMD shared additional details at CES on the next-generation AMD Instinct MI500 GPUs, planned to launch in 2027. The MI500 Series is on track to deliver up to a 1,000x increase in AI performance compared to the AMD Instinct MI300X GPUs introduced in 20231

“Based on engineering projections by AMD Performance Labs in December 2025, to estimate the peak theoretical precision performance of AMD Instinct™ MI500 Series GPU powered AI Rack vs. an AMD Instinct MI300X platform. Results subject to change when products are released in market.”

is 1000x Helios vs single “platform” of 8 mi300x??? Is 10x vs. mi400 single gpu or “helios” rack vs mi500 “titan” rack (with 3.5x number of gpus)

????
