AMD Releases Ryzen Threadripper PRO Series Processors, Exclusive to Pre-Assembled PCs

AMD officially announced its new Ryzen Threadripper Pro processors and WRX80 chipset today, making it the fastest workstation platform on the market. With models from 12 to 64 cores, 2TB ram support, and AMD's full suite of PRO features, this is the ultimate platform to work with.

The line will be lead by the 64-core, 128-wire Threadripper Pro 3995WX, with base frequency 2.7GHz and boost 4.2GHz, and will drop to 12 cores with the Threadripper Pro 3945WX. Unfortunately these new Threadripper Pro will only be available on pre-assembled workstations, so neither the processors nor the WRX80 motherboards will be available on the market individually.
