Geekbench 7 results suggest OpenAI's dots run on nine-core AMD EPYC VMs

A pre-launch Geekbench 7 result, shared on X by INIYSA as one of OpenAI’s dots (it's answer to Meta's Muse), shows a multi-core score of 9,435, with indications of the hardware used by the new autonomous agent. The VM hardware appears to be a single nine-core slice of an AMD EPYC 9V74 with 9.73GB of memory, run on Ubuntu for the leak and Debian for post-launch runs. Our check of Geekbench 7’s public database found six runs on that configuration uploaded since launch, ranging from 1,512 to 1,614 single-core and 8,135 to 8,991 multi-core. Dots, powered by GPT-6 Astra, launched at OpenAI’s DevDay on Tuesday for Pro and Business Premium users.
