I'm looking forward to see the results of teh refresh threadripper. I've been on this 4790k for too long.

If gaming, why get a TR? Unless you do more then game.

They can't come soon enough. Especially if there is mobile version of 4C/8T + 11 NCU. Yesterday, I (or ASUS) finally killed T100HA tablet I was messing with for years. So, I have only 2 x86_64 devices available. "AMD, Move Your Ass!"

Will there be any Threadripper refreshes? Haven't heard anything on it.
Surely , I don't see why would amd decided not to update the whole line-up of their products , imo all products will get the refresh .

Maybe even that rumored 4C/8T + 28NCU chip for compute servers.

I do more than game.

Perfect then. I still use a dual X5550 server for anything not gaming. Its not top of the line anymore but it does what I need. Id kill to have TR but id only go with an 8 core cpu for it. But I dont need all of that anymore like with my previous X79./X58 setups.

I only really play one game, War Thunder, but I make instructional videos for it on the yootoobs. I tend to start the vids with 4k footage, and take them down to 1440 or 1080, the rendering can take some time. I'm guessing a TR with 16 cores might make that go a bit faster, and possibly editing might be a tad smoother, I'm not sure on that though. I could then relegate the 4790k machine to a dedicated music recording box. I don't like doing everything on the same machine, having to have music production equipment be on all the time just to play a damned game and use voice coms is annoying. So, I think I could use the TR for gaming and my vid production, while using this old box for music. As it stands, this box has never gotten above 30% CPU during mixing, so is certainly overkill for that task. I've wanted a good excuse to give some money to AMD for a while, Ryzen and TR first iteration were not QUITE enough, I'm hoping 2nd gen is.
