16-core Ryzen part would reportedly run at 3.1 GHz base and 3.6 GHz Turbo
Last week we reported on a new rumor that AMD is working on a high-end desktop 16 core 32 threaded Ryzen processor series. These processors initially have been reported with a low base-clock in the 2.4 to 2.8 GHz range. It's reported that this 16-core and 32-treaded beast would do a 3.1 GHz base and 3.6 GHz Turbo frequency, yep that is like two R7 1700 CPUs.
This processor would be quad-channel compatible. The TDP for this product would sit in the 150 to 180 Watt range. So basically the package holds 4 CCXs.The processor would need an enthusiast chipset called X399 with socket (Land Grid Array) SP3r2 LGA and thus likely a spin-off from the server series. This platform and processor might become available in the next 4 to 6 months. This new information might be true, but take this one with a grain of salt please. If true, that would be an awesome processor series, bit I cannot help feeling it seems a bit unlikely.

This would be a beast if it holds, for sure. Something definitely worthy of a 1000-1200 price tag. If AMD comes in below 1000, that's a stunner.

Heck if this thing could OC to 3.9-4 Ghz on 16 cores man that would be a good boost. Also this thing could be very useful for those Users who do alot with Virtual Machines.

As much as i would hope to see the 16c/32t SKU staying under $1000, i am doubtful that it will.
AMD would be the first to create a "desktop grade" (this excludes Xeon and Opteron classes of CPU) 16c/32t chip. That fact alone will make them want to charge top dollar for it.
I'd be very interested in it for my virtual server lab, if funds would allow it.

I dont think anyone wants to see AMD start pulling the same thing INTEL does as it will drive prices up not down.
With AMD actual being able to compete for once, I like many are hoping to seeing pricing war.

I think that a 16c/32t CPU for $1000 is a fair price compared to the 10c/20t i7 6950X.

This would be insane if its true! This would be a perfect upgrade to my 3930K and X79 mobo, I totally want that CPU.
Man Visual Studio would build in seconds during my game dev, man the things you could do with the this CPU would be crazy. I hope the news on the new mobo tech is true as well.
Awesome.

It would be pretty amazing indeed for developers. It will be very interesting to see what comes out from Team Red in the pro-sumer, professional, and server market over the next 6 months. (plus the R5 and R3 CPUs of course).

I'm guessing this will be AMD's 800-1000 dollar chip.

damn, AMD not holding back are they? Thats one crazy beast, making me think about going over to AMD at some point if they keep this up!

Before I got this X99 I hoped "Broadwell-E" will move the cores up, so 8 cores would be just 500-600E (max).
Unfortunately, 6900K costs an arm and a leg so I had to settle with something simple. But... the rest of the platform is pretty kick-ass already (64 gig ram, etc.), so the only change needed is mobo + this new monster CPU.
6 cores => 16 cores .... yeah, definitely worth an extra 1200-1300 eur !
(Not to mention AMD's hypertheading seems to be slightly better implemented, so I'm probably looking at a solid 3x performance improvement in the stuff I do - 4K filtering/recoding)
... while the Intel upgrade wasn't much of a difference, just two more cores for 600 more Eur? Bleah!
Bring it AMD! Release the Kraken !

Hey Hilbert,
it seems new Ryzen benchmarks are needed after Windows 10 update!
Also, 3600MHz RAM!

I'm guessing it'll be starting at 599 with 799 taking the top price for the top speed.
AMD will never sell a CPU for $1000. They'll lose any good faith that they've built up the past few years. It just won't happen.

This....logic makes absolutely no sense.
8 core for $500, 16 core for $600-$800? the $800 is a maybe, but it would most definitely be $800 and up.
And good faith? What does that even mean? It would vastly out-play anything intel has for that price, so their "good faith" would...still be there?

That would be an absolute monster as a workstation machine for developers, video editing, 3D modelling etc
Just got my 1700X yesterday and TBH, once I've got it overclocked it will be more than enough machine for me compared with my OC'd 2500k.
Something like that 16 core beast would be great for work though, currently running a 5820k @ 4.2Ghz for software development but more cores would be very welcome given it takes 30 minutes to do a full rebuild of our software on this machine.
