AMD has finally shown the AMD Ryzen Threadripper 9000 series of processing chips which are updated with the use of their latest AMD Zen5 cores, and it is seen to come with very powerful specifications for workstation-class computers or data centers that require high processing power for various productivity purposes.
AMD Ryzen Threadripper 9000 is seen to come with several models, which consist of two series, namely the AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 9000 WX for data centers or workstation computers that require high processing power for the purpose of processing 3D objects or editing high-resolution video.
The second model in this series is the regular AMD Ryzen Threadripper 9000, which is more suitable for use on ordinary consumer computers for those who want the best performance and support for higher memory when compared to regular AMD Ryzen chips.
The most powerful processor in the AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 9000 WX series is the AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 9955WX which comes with 96 physical cores and 192 power threads. It also comes with 128 PCIe 5.0 lanes and supports up to eight DDR5 memory channels and has a processing speed of up to 5.4GHz.
In the regular AMD Ryzen Threadripper 9000 series of processors, the most powerful chip is the AMD Ryzen Threadripper 9980X which comes with 64 cores and 128 power threads, a Boost Clock speed of 5.4GHz and supports four memory channels.
Both series of processors also come with a total power consumption of up to 350W, so you will want to build a computer with a power supply of at least 1KW to 1.5KW to take full advantage of this processor.
Meanwhile, AMD also said that the new Threadripper processors will support existing WR90 (Threadripper Pro) and TRX50 (Threadripper) motherboards, and only require a BIOS update to enable the new chips to be used.
AMD said that they will sell the Ryzen Threadripper 9000 series of processors starting this July, and that it will be introduced for computer builders, and those who want to build their own powerful computers.
