AMD's Ryzen 9000 Series Threadripper Platform

TapTechNews August 27th news, AMD's yet-to-be-announced Ryzen 9000 series Threadripper platform ShimadaPeak has appeared in the customs NBD transport list and may be released under the name of Threadripper 9000.

As shown in the picture, the first SKU in the list adopts 96 Zen5 cores and is still in the B0 stepping. Zen5 Genoa will offer two versions: the classic large-core version and the high-core-count small-core version. Referring to the Zen4 product, although EPYC can provide up to 128 cores, these are all Zen4c small cores.

AMD Threadripper focuses on the high-performance HEDT platform, so only a configuration of 12 CCDs is used (TapTechNews note: each CCD has 8 classic Zen5 cores).

Similar to Ryzen 9000 continuing to use the AM5 platform, the Threadripper 9000 series CPU should also adopt the same socket as StormPeak, namely sTR5.

AMD offers two motherboard designs: WRX90 and TRX50, among which the latter focuses on the HEDT market and only supports the non-PRO version of Threadripper; while the former is for the workstation field, so it supports both versions of the Threadripper CPU at the same time.
