OpenAI's dots agent runs on 9-core AMD EPYC 9V74 VMs, Geekbench 7 shows
Pre-launch Geekbench 7 results show OpenAI's dots agent on a 9-core AMD EPYC 9V74 VM with 9.73GB memory; post-launch scores range from 1,512 to 1,614 single-core.
OpenAI's newly launched dots agent runs on virtual machines powered by a nine-core AMD EPYC 9V74 processor with 9.73GB of memory, according to a pre-launch Geekbench 7 result posted on X and in the benchmark's public database. The pre-launch run, which used Ubuntu, posted a multi-core score of 9,435.
After launch, six runs on the same configuration used Debian and scored between 1,512 and 1,614 single-core and 8,135 to 8,991 multi-core. The dot's cloud computer runs Debian Linux, and its preloaded apps include Chromium, Blender, GIMP, Inkscape, Kdenlive, Godot, FreeCAD, OpenSCAD, KiCad, QGIS, ParaView, 3D Slicer, Python, Node.js, and Git.
OpenAI launched dots at its DevDay on Tuesday for Pro and Business Premium users. The dots are powered by GPT-6 Astra.
Tom's Hardware previously reported that Meta's Muse runs on AMD EPYC Turin with two cores and 8GB per sandbox. The 10 Muse runs in Geekbench's database have median scores of about 1,041 single-core and 1,394 multi-core, and report 7.75GB of memory. Geekbench lists a 2.6GHz base clock for the dot's EPYC 9V74 against 1.5GHz for Muse's EPYC 9D25. Muse reportedly passed 500,000 daily active users.
OpenAI has already said that, in the future, users will be able to add more dots and scale the output of each dot by increasing its speed. SpaceXAI plans standalone Nvidia Vera CPUs for Grok's agentic workloads.
