Info AMD is not your friend !!!

Okay, that's just sad. After all the wait, it is no longer coming. I really hate it.

I'd assume OP is talking about the Non-Pro Threadripper.

Of course I'm.

And when was that promised/advertised ? I certainly did not see it.

It was hinted on. There were rumors and many leaks about it like this one:

AMD Zen 3 Threadripper 5000 Leak Indicates August 2021 Launch

All eyes have been on AMD's Ryzen 5000 series mainstream desktop CPUs since launch, with Intel struggling to keep up, even with the recent release of its 11th Gen Rocket Lake CPUs.

Probably not a genius, but non-pro Zen3 threadripper is not coming. I want it customized. I want to build the pc myself and I want this pc to be based on the new threadripper. It is Obvious. There is no need to pick on me.

And whoever said a non-pro Zen3 threadripper was coming ? I mean like AMD, not rumors. So with 16 cores, what does the 5950x NOT do for you ? Or the 2990wx ?

Except for maybe heavy virtualization, probably nothing. I don't really need a threadripper, but I build PC's for bragging rights. I was fixated on getting the 3970x zen3 equivalent, but now I can't. I think I'll just get the newer 5950x when it becomes available.

I can say, aside from memory limitation and PSIE lanes compared to the threadripper, its a screamer ! I have 5 of them. Bight get number 6 since these prices are getting insanely low. $590 new.... Open box, less.

Give me one of them

I've been migrating to 5900X's. Down to $440 @ Newegg after $60 off promo!
