Amd ryzen threadripper 3960x: 24 physical cores and 250w of tdp
Table of contents:
We are going to have a very busy end of the year with new hardware. One of the most interesting will be the launch of the third generation AMD Ryzen Threadripper, meaning AMD's enthusiastic platform. The AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3960X will be the entry model with a powerful 24 physical cores, 48 logical cores, manufactured in 7nm Zen 2 for Castle Peak generation and compatible with TRX40 boards. Almost nothing!
AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3960X the smallest of the new generation
Will it be priced at 599 euros? How often will it work? Or what will be the boost? At the moment there are enough data that we do not know. But we explain what is known at the moment. From the APISAK twitter account, an image of a benchmark where the AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3960X and an impressive 24 cores appears has been leaked.

Everything indicates that at the end of November we will see the third generation and manufacturers are testing these new processors with their TRX40 motherboards. At the moment it is rumored, at least from our Videocardz colleagues, with the following table:
| Model | Cores / Threads | Base frequency | Boost Frequency | TDP | Starting price |
| AMD Threadripper 3990X |
64/128 |

Apart from the 3960X, we will find an AMD Threadripper 3970X model with 32 cores and 64 threads, which will both have a TDP of 250W. We will also see an AMD Threadripper 3980X with 48 cores and 64 threads and the top of the range AMD Threadripper 3990X with 64 cores, 128 threads and a 280W TDP.

Do you think AMD will sweep Intel into the enthusiastic range? We have already seen the first movements of Intel, lowering prices on its processors. How good is the competition! and how good it feels, at least, to consumers.

Cores, cores, threads, sockets, logical core and virtual core. We explain in a very simple way all these concepts of processors.
There may be physical space for 16 cores in the new ryzen 3000
Some sources suggest that Ryzen 3000 processors may have physical space to include 16 cores. Find out why here.
