A new day, a new proc rumor. We’ve been talking about the Ryzen 9 series HEDT processors (the 16 core parts) for a while now. New information can now once again be added, as it seems AMD might be releasing no less than nine HEDT processors ranging from 10 towards 16 cores.
Of the specs are right you should see two procs with 16 cores, two with 14 cores, three with 12 cores and two 10 cores models. These BTW all are SMT (hyper threaded), and this you can doubly up that number.
As we mentioned already, this will be the Whitehaven series based on the SP3r2 socket. It seems that these secs and model numbers have been leaked through WikiChip. This lineup is what is being referred to as the AMD Ryzen 9 "Threadripper" Lineup.
| Ryzen 9 | Cores/threads | clock/boost | Tdp | Mem | Pci-e-lanes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1998X | 16/32 | 3,5/3,9GHz | 155W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1998 | 16/32 | 3,2/3,6GHz | 155W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1977X | 14/28 | 3,5/4,0GHz | 155W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1977 | 14/28 | 3,2/3,7GHz | 140W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1976X | 12/24 | 3,6/4,1GHz | 125W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1956X | 12/24 | 3,2/3,8GHz | 125W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1956 | 12/24 | 3,0/3,7GHz | 125W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1955X | 10/20 | 3,6/4,0GHz | 125W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
| 1955 | 10/20 | 3,1/3,7GHz | 125W | Quad Channel DDR4 | 44 |
Originally SP3r2 4094-pin socket was developed for the AMD Naples series processor, but AMD did a 180 and is introducing it also as high-end desktop platform series processors and chipsets. Whitehaven will bring quad-channel towards the processor series and the most high-end process would get a 155W TDP, 125W for the 10 core parts.
This information however is not confirmed / validated. Take it with a grain of salt.
AMD Might Launch At Least nine High-end Ryzen 9 Processors
