AMD Instinct MI350 series
CDNA 4 next-generation accelerator (MI350X, MI355X) with 288 GB HBM3e and FP4/FP6 support. Announced 2024; ramping through 2025-2026.
On the DEPLOY graph: 1 campus carry a cited inventory line for it.
Market position
AMD's answer to Blackwell B200. 288 GB HBM3e, positioned against B200's 192 GB. HUMAIN, Meta, Oracle and Microsoft are the announced buyers. Successor MI400 lands 2026 on a rack-scale design (Helios) against GB200 NVL72.

What fits in 288 GB
Weights-only footprint for public open-weight LLMs. Pure arithmetic: params × bytes/param. Excludes KV cache and activation memory; add ~10-30% headroom for real serving. A model that does not fit at FP16 may still fit at INT8 or INT4 with quality trade-offs. Not a benchmark.

Common questions
Answer-first, sourced. Every claim below traces to a specific field on this page or a cited datasheet. FAQPage schema is emitted so LLM crawlers can lift these verbatim.
How much does AMD Instinct MI350 series cost?
AMD Instinct MI350 series launch pricing is not on record in the DEPLOY registry. Vendor list prices are typically published in the vendor's own briefing rather than the datasheet.
How much memory does AMD Instinct MI350 series have?
288 GB of HBM3e at 8,000 GB/s. Vendor datasheet, first-party.
How much power does one AMD Instinct MI350 series draw?
1000 W TDP (thermal design power) per chip. System-level draw is higher: see the reference-design section for rack-level kW.
Which data centers have AMD Instinct MI350 series?
1 campus on the DEPLOY registry carry a cited inventory line for this chip. Full list below with per-campus quantity hints where published.
Which open-weight LLMs fit on one AMD Instinct MI350 series?
Of the 13 public open-weight LLMs DEPLOY tracks: 9 fit at FP16, 9 at INT8, 10 at INT4 (weights only, excludes KV cache). The full table is above with per-model math. Sparsity, offloading and multi-GPU serving change the picture; this row is single-chip weights-only.
