Castle Peak (CPK) is codename for AMD's highest-performance enthusiasts microprocessors serving as a successor to Colfax, released in late 2019. Castle Peak-based processors are based on the Zen 2 microarchitecture and are fabricated on TSMC 7 nm process.
Castle Peak-based microprocessors are branded as 3rd-generation Ryzen Threadripper.
Overview
Castle Peak chips are a series of high-performance desktop processors designed by AMD based on their Zen 2 microarchitecture. Those processors have 64 PCIe lanes with 8 permanently reserved for the chipset and the other 56 generally set up as 48 lanes for GPUs/accelerators and 4+4 for I/O.
The TRX40 chipset specifications are almost identical to that of the AM4 counterparts, with the key difference being a CPU link of 8 lanes instead of 4, and as a result only 8 dedicated general purpose lanes from the chipset remains. The two banks of 4 PCIe/SATA switchable lanes still remain however, for a total of 16 extra lanes from the chipset, for a total available 4.0 spec lane count of 72, if only 4 SATA ports are required.
Common Features
All Castle Peak processors have the following:
- 64 PCIe lanes
- Quad-channel Memory
- Up to DDR4-3200 ECC
- Up to ? TiB
- Up to 64 cores / 128 threads
- 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
