Posted August 6, 2018 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 6, 2018 Did you maybe misread L3 amount? X-series have 32MB and WX have 64MB. All Threadripper 2 CPUs have 60+4 PCIe lanes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
