Need a powerful CPU? 24-core and 32-core threadripper has you sorted

When you used to think about AMD, they never really entered the CPU war competition, until recently with their threadripper CPUs. They have just unveiled the most powerful desktop processor the new 24-core AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3960X and 32-core AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3970X.

What you’ve been waiting for, the SPECS!

MODEL CORES/

THREADS BOOST/ BASE FREQUENCY (GHZ) TOTAL CACHE (MB) TDP (WATTS) PCIe 4.0 LANES (processor + AMD TRX40) PRICE AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3960X 24/48 Up to 4.5/3.8 140 280W 88 (72 useable) $1,399 AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3970X 32/64 Up to 4.5/3.7 144 280W 88 (72 useable) $1,999

These 3rd-generation Ryzen Threadripper Processors are built using AMD’s 7-nanometer “Zen 2” core architecture, and both chips feature 88 PCIe 4.0 lanes with extraordinary power efficiency.

The new 32-core Ryzen Threadripper 3970X offers up to 90 percent faster performance over the competition.

Up to 90 percent faster performance in Cinebench R20 nT

Up to 47 percent more performance in Adobe Premiere

Up to 49 percent more performance in V-Ray

Up to 43 percent more performance in Chromium Release 78 Compile

Up to 36 percent more performance in Unreal Engine

With a performance boost like this, you’d think that they are power MAD! But AMD say that they are 66% better power efficient compared to the previous generation of processors.

As per usual, we’re looking at a new socket again! Which means shelling out more bills for a new motherboard which supports the sTRX4 socket.

“With our 3rd-generation AMD Ryzen Threadripper processors, AMD is once again raising the performance bar significantly for creators, developers, and PC enthusiasts,” said Saied Moshkelani, senior vice president and general manager, AMD Client Compute

When will it be released you say?
