AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7000 CPUs All Set To Become The Ultimate Workstation Platform On 19th of October

The AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7000 Workstation CPU family codenamed Storm Peak is highly anticipated. The lineup brings with it several new upgrades with the most prominent one being the addition of the latest Zen 4 cores and increased core counts. The CPU family will be featuring up to 96 cores, 192 threads, & massive pools of cache which will be a delight for workstations & content creators.

Our sources have told us that AMD is all set to unveil its Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7000 CPU family on the 19th of October. This marks more than 1.5 years since the introduction of the Zen 3-based Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5000 CPUs. The new processors will once again be primarily positioned in the premium workstation segment with limited DIY availability. OEMs will be offering their pre-built designs along with DIY TRX50 motherboards from various manufacturers.

As per leaked information, we can expect a total of five AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7000WX CPU SKUs including the 7995WX with 96 Cores, 7985WX with 64 Cores, 7975WX with 32 cores, 7955WX with 16 cores and 7945WX with 12 cores. These are the preliminary specs and all chips will be rated at a maximum TDP of 350W. The CPUs will be supported on the new TRX50/WRX50 platforms with up to 128 PCIe Gen 5 lanes support & up to 8-channel DDR5 memory support. Leaked benchmarks have also shown some serious gains with the flagship being up to 70% faster than the PRO 5995WX which was limited to just 64 cores. Expect the following improvements from next-gen Threadripper chips:

New Zen 4 Core ArchitectureUp To 96 Cores / 192 ThreadsNew TRX50/WRX50 Platform (Storm Peak)Up To 350W TDP Designs Across All SKUs8-Channel & 4-Channel DDR5 Memory SupportUp To 128 PCIe Gen 5.0 LanesUp To 384 MB of L3 Cache / 480 MB Full PoolUp To 75% Faster Than Threadripper 5000WX

These improvements will mark a major leap over the previous TRX40/WRX40 platforms. Prices can only be confirmed if AMD intends to launch the chips in the DIY channel at launch. Previous Ryzen Threadripper launches have seen a DIY launch happening several months later after the launch of the OEM/Pre-built platforms.
