New AMD Threadripper PRO CPUs: Up to 64 cores and 2 TB RAM

[20:49 Wed,15.July 2020   by Thomas Richter]    

AMD has introduced its new Threadripper PRO processors, which are specifically designed for use in professional workstations and are more similar to AMD&s Epyc CPUs for servers than to the consumer Threadrippers. The performance of the new Pro CPUs should exceed that of Intel&s Xeons and thus take away Intel&s market share in this market segment as well.





Four models of Threadripper PRO have been announced, which differ in the number of CPU cores, cache size, maximum RAM and clock speeds. The strongest model, the Threadripper PRO 3995WX has 64 cores (128 threads), a basic clock rate of 2.7 GHz (4.2 GHz in turbo mode), 256 MB L3 cache and supports up to eight DDR4-3200 RAM devices. The weakest model (PRO 3945WX) has 12 cores, a base clock of 4.0 GHz (4.3GHz), a 64 MB cache and can also address eight RAMs. All CPUs have a TDP of 280W.

The new Threadripper PRO uses the sWRX8 socket (instead of the sTRX4 socket of the normal Threadripper) with its associated chipset and supports theoretically up to 2 TB RAM (sTRX4: maximum 256 GB) and offers 128 PCIe lanes via its eight (instead of four) memory channels.

Threadripper PRO temporarily exclusive in Lenovo&s P620 Workstations
The new Threadripper PROs will be available to system integrators from December, but before then Lenovo, the world&s largest PC manufacturer, will be able to install them exclusively on its P620 workstations from the end of September. These can be equipped with either two Nvidia Quadro RTX 8000 or four Quadro RTX 4000 graphics cards and up to 1 TB RAM.

In first benchmarks published by AMD and Lenovo, Intel&s corresponding Xeon counterpart (actually the Xeon W-3275) looks old with only 28 CPU cores. To get a fair comparison regarding the CPU cores, Intel&s server CPU Xeon Platinum 8280 is used in a dual motherboard (i.e. with 2 x 28 cores).

AMD&s Threadripper Pro 3995WX beats this in all different benchmarks and is in some up to 152% faster (Adobe After Effects), in Premiere Pro it is still between 125 and 135% faster. The integration of future (Quadro) GPUs via the fast PCI-Express 4.0 should also bring a speed advantage - Intel only supports PCI-Express 3.0 here.
