Posted July 13, 2017 Popular Post Threadripper specs are official now with TDP and confirmed pricing. I hope the RAM support is stellar on launch. ( Alienware is offering up to 64GB at 2933Mhz) As someone looking to upgrade my workstation/gaming system I am extremely excited about what's been shown so far, and cannot wait for reviews comparing it against Skylake X. I know plenty will be interested in the overclocking potential as well, and at least Noctua has so far confirmed all new coolers for Threadripper based on their best performing coolers. Quote Some of our readers might argue that some of these answers have been exposed in leaks – from our perspective, getting confirmation from AMD (even on the minor points) is critical here. We’re going to have to wait until nearer the launch to get the answers to these questions. AMD have reaffirmed they are aiming for an early August launch, with more info at SIGGRAPH in a couple of weeks. http://www.anandtech.com/show/11636/amd-ryzen-threadripper-1920x-1950x-16-cores-4g-turbo-799-999-usd The TDP of 180W is more than the early leaks, but still rather decent for essentially two 1700X's in the same socket. Temps, especially under Prime95 and other AVX loads will be interesting. Quote Comparing the two, and what we know, AMD is going to battle on many fronts. Coming in at $999 is going to be aggressive, along with an all-core turbo at 3.4 GHz or above: Intel’s chip at $1999 will likely turbo below this. Both chips will have quad-channel DRAM, supporting DDR4-2666 in 1 DIMM per channel mode (and DDR4-2400 in 2 DPC), but there are some tradeoffs. Intel Core parts do not support ECC, and AMD Threadripper parts are expected to (awaiting confirmation). Intel has the better microarchitecture in terms of pure IPC, though it will be interesting to see the real-world difference if AMD is clocked higher. AMD Threadripper processors will have access to 60 lanes of PCIe for accelerators, such as GPUs, RAID cards and other functions, with another 4 reserved by the chipset: Intel will likely be limited to 44 for accelerators but have a much better chipset in the X299 for IO support and capabilities. We suspect AMD to run a 180W TDP, and Intel at 165W, giving a slight advantage to Intel perhaps (depending on workload), and Intel will also offer AVX512 support for its CPU whereas AMD has smaller FMA and AVX engines by comparison. The die-to-die latency of AMD’s MCM will also be an interesting element to the story, depending exactly where AMD is aiming this product. Asrock motherboards shown off. Noctua's new cooler designs, and baseplate for Threadripper. Also very interesting is the Alienware Threadripper machine! They sport up to 64GB at 2933Mhz. That's actually darn impressive, considering how much Ryzen has struggled to get to that barrer and break it with Dual channel, 16GB max usually. Quote A side note: Dell's Area 51 Threadripper desktop will be available for pre-order on July 27th – it would appear that Dell has an OEM launch day exclusive at this time, so we might see some more details then. The Area 51 will ship after the 27th; that is just the pre-order date. As for Ryzen 3 Sorry folks, AMD hasn't settled on a price yet. Although the official launch day for retail stock is July 27th. Quote When we got our information from AMD, prices were still being decided, but the official launch day will be July 27th. One only one of the CPUs uses the full XFR, and AMD didn’t provide TDP numbers but we suspect they will be listed as 65W parts. AMD did not comment if these CPUs would have coolers bundled with them or not. Again, we’ll have to wait until closer to launch day/on launch day for this information. For users keen on Bristol Ridge information, I am still poking AMD. I’m still being told that it will be launched into the retail channel for consumers, but not at this time.

Posted July 13, 2017 Hmm very interesting pricing even at $999 GG Intel... That 7900X will need to see a price drop. That's the X model though so there is still chance that the 16c non X will be $850-899 if so that's a killer price. As with all zen chips the popular choice will be buying the non X and OC'ing to X performance. 3062 CB at stock, damn...

Posted July 13, 2017 Considering that threadripper is a WS/server chip, someone should probably add these chips to the table...

The 1700X and 1800X are 95W, and top Threadripper is 180W. We can see they lowered the base clocks a bit; as it's not 3.6Ghz like the 1800X; but the 4.0Ghz single core boost is nice. If temps are good, people should be able to overlock around 8 cores to 4.0Ghz at leasts. Perfect for gaming and work that needs more jiggawats, and still plenty of cores for multithreaded work. 5950X | NH D15S | 64GB 3200Mhz | RTX 3090 | ASUS PG348Q+MG278Q Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These days TDP doesn't really mean anything on CPUs, see it as an upper limit... a pentium G3240 has only 10W less TDP than an i7 7700, which is ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
