AMD Readies 9 Threadripper models

Uhh the Threadripper will also have 4 dies, each having up to 4 cores each, like the Ryzen 7 and Ryzen 5 having two dies with up to 4 cores each.

If it had 4 dies it would be 8 channel memory since each die (2 CCXs) gives 2 memory channels. This is what I think of course but if it was 4 dies that would also mean the highest SKU has 50% cores disabled which is a huge waste.

 

Much more likely 2 dies giving the 16 cores and 4 memory channels.

Ryzen 5 and 7 don't have 2 dies, they are single die. They have 2 CCXs, both on the same die. 

Threadripper has 2 dies, each with 2 CCXs, for a total of 4 CCXs. 

Naples has 4 dies, hence 8 CCXs.

This is exactly why people shouldn't be allowed to spread bullshit, now many people think Ryzen is a two die chip.

pretty shure 4.1 its its Limit including xfr , i might be wrong tho who knows what yields they have on These Monsters

its the same ryzen 7 die, so they have the same great yields

ryzen 7 is a single die!

Despite this being 155W TDP, I think it will be actually easier to cool due to the huge surface area and all the heat spread across 4 dies.

Here is a thought - Why not make a larger surface to help cool down a previous, smaller versions of CPU? Larger CPU surface is not going to be an issue when planting in a PC case anyway. MB makers could have adapted. Only now they come out with this excuse.

now that intel changed gears and released a 18 core, i still want to see if amd responds to it with a bigger core count.

I'm guessing lowest SKU is $599; highest ends up $1199.

 

I'm still surprised that they managed to end up with 10c & 14c parts.  I wonder if that's where the 3+2 & 4+3 dies ended up going?  This would also explain the 3 SKUs for the 12c parts. The symmetric disabled setup allows for just a bit more headroom.  Though I am rather surprised that the leak about the entire stack ended up being correct, as it seemed like a few too many SKUs.

 

Lastly, well, the top-end SKU is pretty much 2 Ryzen 7 1800X put together.  That's going to be a beast of a chip, and have a price tag to match.

At the right price, this should be a massive benefit to increase productivity without paying the Intel Tax for high end desktop machines and workstations alike.

 

Look forward to seeing it become a reality and finally have AMD back in the mix for pushing technology forward.  It's about time as we haven't had an Opteron based servers in about 8 years as everything is Intel only.   My industry (enterprise hosting) is stagnant due to the Intel dominance, hoping AMD can bring their name back to high end compute and server hardware.

I want it, dem prices, just announce it. Going for a beast platform next, current is getting old.

what do you think of the increased io in for the single socket servers, in my eyes it seems great as now you can have more efficient servers as you don't need an additional cpu burning power

if you do i could keep that ryzen right

Could just go with a single socket Naples with 32 cores.

You're right I don't.

imagine a unlocked 32 core

Or get a quad socket board which is likely a thing as the Opteron was the choice for quad socket server boards

 

128 Cores, 256 Theads omgwtfbbq *Mindblown*

to soon to soon,

that would be crazy, imagine the 3dmark physics score

call now and get 32 cores

 

BUT WAIT THERE IS MORE

 

64 cores and 128 threads if you call now!!!!!

it seems there isn't a quad socket, maybe in the future

I actually don't think they can. Naples actually has 128 PCIe lanes but 64 of them are for the Infinity Fabric used in dual socket configuration. I think it's currently limited to two sockets.

It will come, the early opterons didn't have quad support to start with if memory serves.
