“We created a new standard for the high end desktop (HEDT) market when we launched our first Ryzen Threadripper processors a year ago, delivering a ground-breaking level of computing power for the world’s most demanding PC users,” said Jim Anderson, Senior VP and GM, Computing and Graphics Business Group, AMD.
“Our goal with 2nd Gen Ryzen Threadripper processors was to push the performance boundaries even further and continue innovating at the bleeding edge. Beginning on August 13, creators, enthusiasts, and gamers everywhere will get to experience the benefits of these new products.”
The 2nd Gen Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX processors have already broken world records* in the Cinebench R15 multi-threaded CPU test. The AMD Ryzen Overclocking Team pushed the 2nd Gen AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX CPU to over 5.1GHz on liquid nitrogen, achieving a record score of 7,618. This beats the single socket record set by the competition’s Core i9-7980XE CPU at 5,828 points. The freely available Ryzen Master Software utility gives broad control of CPU** settings, allowing users to maximise CPU performance.

Details:
All 2nd Gen AMD Ryzen Threadripper processors support the SocketTR4 platform, sporting sixty-four PCIe Gen 3.0 lanes, and quad channel DDR4 memory with error-correcting code (ECC) support***. All 2nd Gen AMD Ryzen Threadripper CPUs are supported by a full ecosystem of new and existing X399 platforms at launch, with designs already available from top motherboard manufacturers including ASRock, ASUS, Gigabyte, and MSI.
Along with the broad selection of motherboards, the SocketTR4 platform supports a wide range of new and existing cooling solutions, including the new Wraith Ripper air-cooler showcased at Computex 2018. This cooler is now available from CoolerMaster and features compatibility with the SocketTR4 platform and all 1st Gen and 2nd Gen Ryzen Threadripper processors.
Retailers around the world are accepting preorders from August 6, 2018, for the 32-core, 64-thread AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX. The 16-core, 32-thread AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2950X CPU is expected to launch on August 31, 2018 and the AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2970WX and 2920X models are slated for launch in October 2018.

**Overclocking AMD processors, including without limitation, altering clock frequencies/ multipliers or memory timing/voltage, to operate beyond their stock specifications will void any applicable AMD product warranty, even when such overclocking is enabled via AMD hardware and/or software. This may also void warranties offered by the system manufacturer or retailer. Users assume all risks and liabilities that may arise out of overclocking AMD processors, including, without limitation, failure of or damage to hardware, reduced system performance and/or data loss, corruption or vulnerability.
***ECC memory available only when enabled by the motherboard manufacturer. Check with your system provider for details and availability.
