According to fresh sources, we have new details about AMD’s next-generation Ryzen Threadripper & Threadripper Pro HEDT CPU families which are based on the Zen 3 architecture. The leak comes from Moore’s Law Is Dead and it suggests that AMD is planning to expand upon its Threadripper lineup with a range of options aimed at the HEDT, Prosumer, and Workstation market.
The AMD Threadripper 5000 family, codenames Chagall, will have two variants, the Ryzen and the Pro variants. The Ryzen Threadripper 5000 family is aimed at the HEDT and Prosumer market. It will feature the Ryzen Threadripper 5990X as its flagship and it will have up to 64 cores, 128 threads & 256 MB of L3 cache. It will also offer 64 PCIe Gen 4.0 lanes and support a 4-channel DDR-3200 memory interface. According to sources, it is expected to launch by November 2021 and the pricing will also be reportedly higher than the Zen 2 lineup.
Coming to the workstation parts, the AMD Threadripper Pro 5000 CPUs line up will have the Threadripper Pro 5995WX which will be the company’s flagship. The CPU will offer 64 cores along with 128 threads however, it will feature 8-channel DDR4 memory support and 128 PCIe Gen 4.0 lanes. It’s expected to come in early Q1 2022.
Next, we have the latest rumor regarding an AMD Threadripper lineup which is based on the Zen 3 architecture and is codenamed Chagall X3D. the lineup is still not confirmed and is an entire rumor so take it with a pinch of salt. It speculated that it will be based on Milan-X. the CPU will reportedly fit inside TRX40 and TRX80 motherboards that is if AMD releases the chip in the first place. The chip is expected to launch around 2H of 2022, as for the rest it remains to be seen.
Finally, we have some information about AMD’s next-generation Zen 4 based Threadripper CPUs that will feature up to 96 cores. We can expect the CPUs to launch in Q1 2023 but we still have to wait for two years from now, and who knows, if AMD might decide to scrap the entire idea itself. Its speculated to be based on EPYC Genoa and not EPYC Bergamo which offers up to 128 cores.
