AMD's 2nd generation Ryzen processors have proven highly successful thanks to new embedded technologies such as Precision Boost 2 or the 12nm manufacturing process. Along the same lines it seems that we will have very soon the new second-generation Threadripper chips.

AMD confirms the arrival of the second generation Threadripper

AMD has confirmed that it has started testing Threadripper's second generation processors, delivering new TR4 series CPUs with all the benefits of Ryzen second generation directly to manufacturers, making AMD's HEDT options even more so. attractive than before.

The first generation of Threadripper processors, like the 1950X, achieves higher single-core clock speeds than all AMD desktop offerings, peaking at 4.2 GHz. If the second generation Threadripper follows the same trend, the Threadripper 2950X could set even higher speeds than the Ryzen 7 2700X, creating an impressive product for the server market.

Right now AMD Threadripper series second-generation processors are expected to go on sale in the second half of 2018, likely early in the third quarter, and be compatible with existing X399 TR4 motherboards, so no investment in new motherboards would be necessary.
