Important

Azure Virtual Machine Series Falsv6, Fasv6, and Famsv6 are currently in PREVIEW. See the Supplemental Terms of Use for Microsoft Azure Previews for legal terms that apply to Azure features that are in beta, preview, or otherwise not yet released into general availability.

The Falsv6, Fasv6, and Famsv6-series utilize AMD's 4th Generation EPYC^TM 9004 processor that can achieve a boosted maximum frequency of 3.7GHz with up to 320 MB L3 cache. The Falsv6, Fasv6, and Famsv6 VM series come without Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT), meaning a vCPU is now mapped to a full physical core, allowing software processes to run on dedicated and uncontested resources. These new full core VMs will suit workloads demanding the highest CPU performance.

Falsv6, Fasv6, and Famsv6-series offer up to 64 full core vCPUs and 512 GiB of RAM in three memory to core ratios, and are optimized for scientific simulations, financial and risk analysis, gaming, rendering and other workloads able to take advantage of the exceptional performance. Customers running software licensed on per-vCPU basis can leverage these VMs to optimize compute costs within their infrastructure.

Note

For frequently asked questions, see Azure VM sizes with no local temp disk. The Falsv6, Fasv6, and Famsv6-series virtual machines do not have any temporary storage. You can attach Standard SSD, Standard HDD, and Premium SSD disk types. You can also attach Ultra Disk storage based on its regional availability. Disk storage is billed separately from virtual machines. See pricing for disks.

The new Falsv6, Fasv6, and Famsv6 VM series will only work on OS images that are tagged with NVMe support.  If your current OS image is not supported for NVMe, you’ll see an error message. NVMe support is available in 50+ of the most popular OS images, and we continuously improve the OS image coverage. Please refer to our up-to-date lists for information on which OS images are tagged as NVMe supported.  For more information on NVMe enablement, see our FAQ.

Size table definitions

Storage capacity is shown in units of GiB or 1024^3 bytes. When you compare disks measured in GB (1000^3 bytes) to disks measured in GiB (1024^3) remember that capacity numbers given in GiB may appear smaller. For example, 1023 GiB = 1098.4 GB.
Disk throughput is measured in input/output operations per second (IOPS) and MBps where MBps = 10^6 bytes/sec.
Data disks can operate in cached or uncached modes. For cached data disk operation, the host cache mode is set to ReadOnly or ReadWrite. For uncached data disk operation, the host cache mode is set to None.
To learn how to get the best storage performance for your VMs, see Virtual machine and disk performance.
Expected network bandwidth is the maximum aggregated bandwidth allocated per VM type across all NICs, for all destinations. For more information, see Virtual machine network bandwidth.

Upper limits aren't guaranteed. Limits offer guidance for selecting the right VM type for the intended application. Actual network performance will depend on several factors including network congestion, application loads, and network settings. For information on optimizing network throughput, see Optimize network throughput for Azure virtual machines. To achieve the expected network performance on Linux or Windows, you may need to select a specific version or optimize your VM. For more information, see Bandwidth/Throughput testing (NTTTCP).
