Elevate Your AI Workloads: AMD Instinct™ MI325X GPU Droplets are Now Available on DigitalOcean

Posted: July 17, 2025•2 min read

At DigitalOcean, we’re constantly striving to equip developers and digital native enterprises with the most powerful and accessible tools to fuel AI innovation. Following the introduction of our AMD Instinct™ MI300X GPU Droplets last month, we’re thrilled to announce the availability of the next generation of AI accelerators - AMD Instinct™ MI325X.

What Makes AMD Instinct™ MI325X GPUs a Game Changer?

Built on the advanced AMD CDNA™ 3 architecture, the AMD Instinct™ MI325X accelerators are engineered to deliver exceptional performance for AI workloads, including large model training, fine-tuning, inference, and high-performance computing (HPC). These GPUs are available as GradientAI GPU Droplets, powerful virtual machines with a simplified setup.

Key benefits of the AMD Instinct™ MI325X that enable you to accelerate complex computations, ensure your inference tasks run faster, and provide more flexibility and control:

Memory capacity and bandwidth: With 256GB of HBM3E memory and 6.0TB/s of bandwidth, the MI325X can hold massive models entirely in memory, significantly reducing the need for model splitting across GPUs and accelerating complex computations. This represents a substantial leap in memory capabilities, offering 1.8x more capacity and 1.3x more bandwidth compared to previous generations.
Accelerated AI inference performance: The MI325X boasts 1.3x greater peak theoretical FP16 and FP8 compute performance than competing solutions, ensuring your AI models run faster and more efficiently, especially for inference tasks.
ROCm™ Software Platform: The MI325X fully leverages the AMD ROCm™ open software platform, enabling developers to build and deploy powerful HPC and AI systems. This open ecosystem empowers you with the flexibility and control you need.

The DigitalOcean Advantage with MI325X GPU Droplets

Integrating AMD Instinct™ MI325X GPUs into the DigitalOcean ecosystem means you’ll continue to benefit from the simplicity, affordability, and scalability you’ve come to expect:

Simplified Deployment: Our intuitive platform makes it easy to provision and manage your AI infrastructure, allowing you to focus on developing your applications rather than managing complex setups.
Cost-Effectiveness: These GPUs start at $1.69/GPU/hr (through a contract) and we offer flexible configurations (including single and eight GPU options), helping you optimize costs for your specific use cases.
Seamless Integration: Leverage the MI325X GPU Droplets with your existing DigitalOcean projects, integrating with our Kubernetes service.
Reliability: Benefit from enterprise-grade SLAs, HIPAA-eligibility and SOC 2 compliance, and the peace of mind that comes with building on DigitalOcean’s trusted cloud infrastructure.
