The UK government announced a £36 million investment to upgrade the DAWN supercomputer at the University of Cambridge.
The upgrade integrates Dell PowerEdge servers featuring AMD’s latest MI355X AI accelerators. The project aims to increase the supercomputer’s AI research capacity sixfold by spring 2026.
This selection places AMD hardware at the core of a key national AI research resource. The system provides UK researchers and startups access to powerful computing for developing future AI technologies.
The partnership highlights AMD’s growing role in public AI infrastructure. It also underscores the company’s competitiveness in the high-performance computing market.
