AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2950X Processor
The AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2950X Processor was released over a year after its predecessor, The 1950X was a significant improvement over the previous generation, offering a 15% increase in IPC and a 50% increase in multi-threaded performance.
The AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2950X builds on that success with a further 5% IPC improvement and a 100 MHz increase in base clock speed. The result is a processor that is not only the fastest consumer CPU on the market but also the most power-efficient.
This processor features 16 cores with 32 threads in an sTR4 socket and has a base clock speed of 3.5 GHz that can be boosted up to 4.4 GHz.The second-generation Ryzen processor offers increased performance compared to its predecessor due to its “Zen+” core technology and advanced 12 nm process.
Moreover, it features 40MB of combined L3 and L2 cache, 64 PCIe Gen 3 lanes, and support for quad-channel DDR4 RAM. This processor has a 180W TDP (Thermal Design Power), so premium cooling solutions are encouraged for the best performance.
The AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2950X Processor is a 64-bit hexa-core high-performance x86 desktop microprocessor introduced by AMD in mid-2018.
The CPU is based on the Zen+ microarchitecture and is fabricated on a 12 nm process. The chip operates at 3.5 GHz with a TDP of 180 W and a Boost frequency of up to 4.4 GHz. It supports dual-channel DDR4-2933 memory and features 24MB of L3 cache.
The AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2950X Processor is compatible with the TR4 socket and will work with any existing X399 motherboard. It is also backward compatible with older X370 and B350 chipsets, though some features will be disabled.
