AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) announced the much-anticipated AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ PRO 7000 WX-Series processors and reintroduced the Threadripper processor lineup to the high-end desktop space with the Ryzen Threadripper 7000 Series processors, setting a new standard for computing performance and innovation in the industry.
AMD is introducing the Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7000 WX-Series processors, which will be available later this year to DIY customers, SI partners, and through OEM partners, including Dell Technologies, HP, and Lenovo. Designed for professionals and businesses that demand top-tier performance, reliability, expandability, and security, these processors provide the unparalleled multi-core performance of “Zen 4” Threadripper 7000 Series processors. Additionally, they are bolstered by AMD PRO technologies and offer the enterprise-level security and management features modern businesses require, and feature up to 96 cores and 192 processing threads of incredible performance for the workstation market.
Simultaneously, AMD is also introducing the AMD Ryzen Threadripper 7000 Series processors, returning to the HEDT environment for the first time since 2020. Maintaining AMD’s high standard for creative and professional users, the Ryzen Threadripper 7980X processor offers the most computing power possible in an enthusiast desktop,[i] with exceptional multi-threaded performance for users who demand the best. These processors, also built with the AMD “Zen 4” architecture and offering up to 48 PCIe® 5.0 lanes available to desktop users, feature up to 64 cores and 128 threads for an unprecedented level of performance and efficiency.
“AMD has a long history of leading innovation in the workstation and high-performance computing segments, and this new line up of Ryzen Threadripper 7000 Series processors marks another step on that path,” said Jack Huynh, senior vice president and GM, Computing and Graphics Business Group at AMD. “These processors are a testament to our unwavering commitment to delivering world-class innovation and performance, and we’re confident that they will unlock incredible creative potential in our users while continuing to raise the bar on energy efficiency in the most capable platform on the planet.”
Based on AMD performance lab testing as of September 28, 2023, using the Chromium Compilation 115.0.5740 benchmark, the Unreal Engine 5.1 compilation benchmark, the PugetBench for Premiere Pro v0.98.0 benchmark, the PugetBench for Adobe AfterEffects v0.95.7 benchmark, the VRay CPU performance benchmark, the SPECapc Maya 2023 CPU composite metric, the Keyshot Viewer 2023.1_12.0.0.186, the SPECapc for Solidworks 2022 CPU composite metric, the Corona rendering (Rays/Sec) benchmark, the Revit RFO model creation benchmark, Cadalyst AutoCAD 2022 benchmark, and the Puget Metashape total processing time (Rock Model) to compare the performance of an AMD Ryzen Threadripper 7980X processor in a reference system configured with 8x32GB DDR5, NVIDIA Quadro RTX A5000 graphics, 1TB SSD, Win 11 vs. a similarly configured BOXX workstation with an Intel Xeon w9-3495X processor. Workstation manufacturers may vary configurations, yielding different results. Results may vary. SPP-09
