Threadripper 2

[ChrisStein]

Am I the only one who's disappointed that the new Threadripper 2 lower end sku's on have 32 pci-e lanes. I wanted a 1950x for the 60ish lanes but was waiting for TR2 for hopefully a cheaper price on a 16/32, which we got kinda, but it only has half the lanes. Why couldn't it have more. #firstworldproblems

for what would you need them?

Did you maybe misread L3 amount? X-series have 32MB and WX have 64MB.

All Threadripper 2 CPUs have 60+4 PCIe lanes.

All TR2 CPUs have 60 PCIe lanes. You mistook their cache sizes for PCIe lane count.
