Threadripper Gen1 Processor prices have been lowered
While the Gen2 Threadripper series is pretty sweet, and yes that is an understatement, it, however, could be very interesting to look into a Gen1 processor at the moment. 299 USD for the 8c/16t 1900X anyone?
So yeah, if you need loads of threads, or just would like the massive PCIe lane infrastructure, or quad-channel memory .. hey these are all very valid reasons to look into a Gen1 proc.
The 1920X for example with its 12 cores and 24 threads sells at 399 USD now. And mind you these are MSRP prices, so likely in retail/etail you can spot them even cheaper. The 16-cores / 32 threaded 1950X sells at 799 USD now.

$400 for 12C/24T. OMG! So what's coming for this price to fit into global pricing plan?
Did intel install safety nets around their buildings?

1920X for about £349 in the UK, that's stunning value really. And you can upgrade to the 2nd gen Threadripper when they come down eventually (and they will)
