AMD Faces $800 Million Risk Due to New U.S. Export Controls on China

Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) disclosed that new U.S. government export controls now apply to its MI308 semiconductor products, restricting their sale to China, Hong Kong, Macau, and other D:5 countries or related entities. AMD is planning to apply for export licenses but noted there is no guarantee they will be approved.

As a result of these controls, AMD estimates potential charges of up to approximately $800 million related to inventory, purchase commitments, and reserves. The company emphasized that these projections are forward-looking and subject to risks and uncertainties, including changes in regulatory policy, market demand, and other external conditions.

AMD Achieves Milestone with TSMC 2nm Process

Dan McNamara, SVP and GM of AMD’s Server Business, emphasized the impact of AMD’s continued innovation and close collaboration with Google Cloud, while Google Cloud’s VP Mark Lohmeyer noted that these instances provide enterprise customers with performance and cost efficiency tailored to both cloud-native and HPC applications.

The C4D and H4D instances are currently in preview and are expected to become generally available later in 2025 across multiple global regions.

AMD and Oracle Cloud Launch New Compute E6 Shapes with 5th Gen EPYC Processors

AMD announced that Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is deploying its new Compute E6 Standard shapes powered by AMD’s 5th Gen EPYC processors. These processors deliver up to 2X improvement in cost-to-performance compared to the previous E5 generation, according to Oracle’s own testing.

The E6 shapes are built for both general-purpose and compute-intensive workloads, offering enhanced scalability and efficiency. This expansion strengthens AMD’s presence across major cloud providers, with over a thousand compute instances now using EPYC processors.

Dan McNamara, senior vice president and general manager of AMD’s Server Business, highlighted the rapid adoption of EPYC CPUs as a testament to AMD’s ability to provide partners with high-performance, competitive cloud solutions. Donald Lu, senior vice president at Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, emphasized the combined performance and cost benefits brought by the new E6 shapes.

OCI Compute E6 instances are now available in regions including Ashburn, Phoenix, Chicago, Frankfurt, and London, with further availability planned.

AMD’s 5th Gen EPYC CPUs are recognized for high thread density, memory bandwidth, I/O throughput, and built-in security features. These processors use advanced 3-4nm technology and are designed to deliver industry-leading performance across enterprise, AI, and cloud workloads.
