AMD Announces Threadripper: 16-core and 32-threads processors confirmed
We’ve been talking about the Ryzen 9 series HEDT processors (the 16 core parts) for a while now. At the Financial Analyst Day AMD's Jim Anderson announced high-performance enthusiast segmented performance CPUs, with up to 16 cores and 32 threads.
Jim Anderson announces 16-core / 32 thread desktop parts, threadripper. It will be available Summer 2017 and more information will become available during Computex. The Whitehaven platform should include support for quad-channel DDR4 memory support and offer additional PCIe lanes. Some unconfirmed additional rumors on these processors can be read up here. Threadripper processors will be available this Summer.
| Ryzen 9-cpu | Cores/threads | Clock/boost | Tdp | Memory | Pci-e-lanes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1998X | 16/32 | 3,5/3,9GHz | 155W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1998 | 16/32 | 3,2/3,6GHz | 155W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1977X | 14/28 | 3,5/4,0GHz | 155W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1977 | 14/28 | 3,2/3,7GHz | 140W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1976X | 12/24 | 3,6/4,1GHz | 125W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1956X | 12/24 | 3,2/3,8GHz | 125W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1956 | 12/24 | 3,0/3,7GHz | 125W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1955X | 10/20 | 3,6/4,0GHz | 125W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1955 | 10/20 | 3,1/3,7GHz | 125W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
Originally SP3r2 4094-pin socket was developed for the AMD Naples series processor, but AMD did a 180 and is introducing it also as high-end desktop platform series processors and chipsets. Whitehaven will bring quad-channel towards the processor series and the most high-end process would get a 155W TDP, 125W for the 10 core parts.

This is where the whole CCX approach pays off for them I guess. These things shouldn't really have much different yields than anything presented up until now, since it's the CCX yields that matter. That 10/20 part will most likely be at around $600 and it looks like the best sweetspot for "enthusiasts". I would also like to see Ryzen performing with quad channel memory.

It certainly does look like good planning.
With 7nm(+), they should be able to pop 32c/64t in one socket!!!

Damn, I am not sure if I should feel bad for the people who got the 1800x so soon. I wonder how many will jump to one of these.
