A couple of days ago we saw an official AMD presentation about its Threadripper HEDT processors which boast up to 16 core and 32 threads of processing. We learnt about the new X399 motherboards from the likes of ASRock, Asus, MSI and Gigabyte, and got an outline of the attractive features that will be on offer for the platform. At the Computex press event AMD focussed upon the flagship Threadripper with 16C/32T - but what about other Threadripper processors?

According to the latest information, compiled by OCaholic, the Threadripper lineup we shared from a leak in mid-May appears to be mostly correct. Without further ado, let's check out the product specs table:

The above nine SKUs are based upon a dual 'Summit Ridge' multi-chip module design. All of them have SMT enabled, full 64-lane PCIe gen 3.0 root-complexes, and full quad-channel DDR4 memory interfaces. You will note that five of the nine Threadripper processors carry the X suffix denoting XFR (extended frequency range) support.

In comparison with the recently announced quintet of Intel Core-X Series processors, AMD's lineup looks strong in the above stats and we have yet to point out the apparent TDP advantages on AMD's side. Unfortunately the pricing data has yet to come through for AMD's range too.
AMD Threadripper processors and partner designed X399 chipset motherboards will hit retail later this summer.
