Ryzen Threadripper (pronounced Rye-Zen Thread-ripper) is a family of 64-bit x86 high-performance desktop and workstation microprocessors. Ryzen Threadripper is geared toward prosumers that rely on heavily threaded applications and multitasking.

Overview

Ryzen Threadripper is a family of high core count x86 microprocessors. Threadripper is geared toward mainstream users who rely on heavily threaded applications and multitasking beyond what the Ryzen 7 processors can provide.

Top 5% of dies become Threadripper.

While Threadripper uses the same dies as the ones used for Ryzen, their performance characteristics are a little different. Since every die has a slightly different performance characteristics, even from within the same wafer, AMD sorts those dies based on this performance. The top 5% Ryzen dies are then used for the Threadripper models. Higher-performance dies allow for higher efficiency in terms of power consumption at higher clock speeds and in theory allow for higher overclocking overhead.

2900-Series (Zen+)

See also: Zen+ µarch and Codename Colfax

Announced in early August 2018, second-generation Threadripper processors are based on the Zen+ microarchitecture ,fabricated on GlobalFoundries 12 nm process, and feature a modest frequency and memory improvement. 2nd-gen parts still use the same sTR4 socket and are fully backwards-compatible with 1st-generation. The biggest change second-generation brought is introduction of higher core count models but at the cost of a much higher thermal design point. 2900-Series doubled the core count to as much as 32 cores and introduced a new automatic overclocking feature called Precision Boost Overdrive.

All models have

• Mem: Quad-channel, up to 1 TiB, up to 512 GiB per channel (2 TiB in total)
• I/O: 60 PCIe 3.0 lanes (x48 lanes for multiple GPUs, x12 for I/O)
• TDP: 180 W / 250 W
• ISA: Everything up to AVX2 (i.e., SMM, FPU, NX, MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, AES, AVX, FMA3, and AVX2), and SHA
• Tech: AMD-V/Vi, Precision Boost 2, SMEP, 2-way SMT, XFR 2, and Precision Boost Overdrive

3900-Series (Zen 2)

See also: Zen 2 µarch and Codename Castle Peak

Announced in November 2019, third-generation Threadripper HEDT processors are based on the Zen 2 microarchitecture, fabricated on a TSMC 7 nm process, bringing a 15% IPC improvement along with a modest frequency improvement. 3rd-gen microprocessors do not maintain backwards compatibility and use a new sTRX4 socket, supporting much higher TDPs and improving I/O bandwidth with support for PCIe Gen 4.

In July 2020 AMD launched the Threadripper PRO 3900 WX series, these are workstation processors using the new Socket sWRX8 with twice the number of I/O interfaces and memory channels like EPYC 7002 server processors. However Threadripper workstation processors support only single socket systems, no more than one DIMM per memory channel, and unlike Threadripper HEDT processors do not support overclocking.

All models have

• Mem HEDT: Quad-channel DDR4-3200, up to 256 GiB using eight 32 GiB UDIMMs
• Mem WS: Octa-channel DDR4-3200, support for UDIMM, RDIMM, LRDIMM, and 3DS RDIMM memory, up to 2 TiB using eight 256 GiB LRDIMMs or 3DS DIMMs
• I/O HEDT: 64 PCIe Gen 4.0 lanes (8 lanes reserved to attach the TRX40 chipset)
• I/O WS: 128 PCIe Gen 4.0 lanes (8 lanes reserved to attach the WRX80 chipset)
• TDP: 280 W
• ISA: Everything up to AVX2 (i.e., SMM, FPU, NX, MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, AES, AVX, FMA3, and AVX2), and SHA
• Tech: AMD-V/Vi, Precision Boost 2, SMEP, 2-way SMT
