Customized review kits are a neat touch. Now back to waiting for the review proper 😀.

Oh wow, that's amazing level of service 🙂 Really does make you think that AMD actually cares 🙂

Looks like AMD has pulled out all the stops with Ryzen Threadripper. Man, I'd love to have a dummy chip with my name on it (I wonder if AMD would consider it?). Eagerly looking forward to the review.
Let's hope these new Boards and the Socket in General is more bug-free then the AM4.
The only real issue I had with AM4 is the lack of board availability - I had to wait up to a month for it, and it was a preorder. I really hope this won't be the case with TR (MSI: you'd better deliver this time!)

Genuine wow factor on a plate for you from AMD. AMD like you, a lot. Beep, Houston. The Guru3D has landed. 🙂

HH did AMD send you a 1900x too by chance? would love to see the differences between that and the 1800x
Honestly, I think the 1900X will be the most interesting product. It ought to highlight any potential performance lost in AM4, and it seems to be an ideal product for those who want the extra PCIe lanes but may find 12+ cores to be overkill.

they definitely win on the packaging front.

AM4 didn't really have any problems (aside from some motherboards specifically, which has nothing to do with AM4, but the manufacturer of that board itself) except for when it came to running ram BEYOND the supported frequencies that AMD put out there. But even that has mostly cleared up now.

Wow AMD is sexy again. That kit makes me so jel, i want one. In fact i'm 99.9999% sure i'm gonna get the 8 core version. These bad boys have ECC memory too for reliability.

Man, Great unboxing 🙂..thank you Hilbert for sharing 🤓 this is one nice packing form AMD, they really doing there best on this one. gotta respect there attention to details. Guru3D logo on suitcase, and the dummy CPU with logo engraved on, come on, how cool is that! 🤓 and the CPU mount, good stuff..oh, thanks for the Video Hilbert, more of those please, maybe a video review on the 10th..a final verdict video feed from master Guru3D himself 🙂 now can't wait for the actual review..fingered crossed that AMD is going to deliver something truly awesome!!!

Oh man Do I want one of these bad-boys!!! I honestly never thought I would see Amd in the high-end Market in this lifetime at least wow Much props and I am starting to save for one! At the very least I will get the 8/16 Thread Ryzen.Great times ahead for sure.

Fantastic press kit presentation from AMD. Is it just me or is that ROG Zenith Extreme simply the most badass motherboard ever? Even the name sounds monstrous!

You know what else is monstrous? The price. That this is $689 Canadoughs on Newegg.ca. Unless it can also do my laundry, no mobo is worth that kind of money. I'll opt for one of the more reasonable options instead, LoL.

nvidia is getting free ads in 2 of the last photos :P it'd be great if vega was the one install in there with threadripper

Awesome! Thanks for the preview, I can't wait for your review! Man what I would give to get a new Ryzen Threadripper 1950X and a fresh new mobo aka a ASUS Zenith Extreme(damn is it sexy!). My X79(especially), 1600mhz RAM and i7 3930K are ready to retire 🙂 Damn would it own to have 32 logical cores for when I work with Visual Studio and my game dev every day. Especially for when I do builds every few minutes running my changes and not have to wait with such a setup. I wonder if this CPU will be horded by all serious YouTubers who use Vegas Pro(or other multi-cored/threaded Video Software)? If you have a Fiber connection and this CPU(1950x) you could pump out 4K and 1440p videos/content like crazy in no time and 1080p would be a drop in the bucket. Also the CPU is going to be an epic upgrade for my gaming and especially the newer games. As an engine developer what a time it is to be alive right now for PC gamers, its pretty freaking amazing! Thank you AMD, upgrade mode at 1000%, I just wish I could afford it right now 🙁 must find a way...

I really hope this won't be the case with TR (MSI: you'd better deliver this time!) Yeah that was another Issue. I am now not sure if I should go with ASRock, MSI or ASUS. I always had ASUS with my recent Motherboards, but the MSI Boards are cool too. I think I will buy the TR first then decide on the Motherboard, as I am having issues to decide with which Manufacturer I should go this Time.

The RAM Frequencies is what was holding me back from buying a Ryzen. Since I need a 32GB Ram Setup for my Work (Games don't use that much) it was not possible at that time with earlier BIOS Version's I did read, plus the Frequencies was an issue too. I know it is now possible to run the Ram on 3200mhz but is it now also possible to have a 32GB 3200mhz Setup with the Ryzen? I could only see 16GB Setups on most Benchmarks, Setups.

Thanks for posting this great article. I really appreciate the fact that AMD has shown Guru3D such impressive deference - Hilbert and Guru3D have in my opinion, earned this.

I don't recall that ever being an issue....

Are you talking about 4 DIMMS being used? Because if so, i'm not sure of the answer to that. I'd say probably? But realistically they do state the more DIMMS you use, lowers the frequencies you can use. But that's "officially", and "officially" ryzen only supports 2667Mhz ram and lower, same with Intel, they only support a max frequency of what? 2133? Maybe it's more, i'm not entirely sure, can't easily find that information for some reason, but either way, it's not what people run them at, that's for sure. But in reality, if you are talking about 4 DIMMS, why? 2x16GB 3200mhz ram you'd be completely fine with. And if you're not talking about 4 DIMMS, just 32GB as a barrier, i'll go back to not understanding, because i've never heard of that issue lol

I was reading something that 32GB in General was an issue, so most did only use a 16GB Setup. I would be using 2 DIMMS @ 16GB clocked at 3200mhz. Now since the TR CPU's are almost at our Doorstep I will wait for Results on what Setups can be used. Cheers though for clearing this up, let's hope it stays the same for Threadripper CPU's.
