AMD X399 ！！！！！

[Despoiler]

That looks like 4x Ryzen 8c/16t. Epyc 32c/64t folks!

 

[krumme]

Oh yeah. Me likey.

Woooot. Looks like something nvidia invented.

 

[Elixer]

Oh yeah. Me likey.

Just wait to see the size of the heatsink...for the 'threadripper' version.
That will require one massive base plate.

 

[thecoolnessrune]

That is a massive chip! It's like someone magnified an old G34 Socket Opteron.

 

[The Stilt]

SP3 is indeed a massive package. 4411mm² of surface area (AM4 is 1600mm²)

 

[IEC]

My budget just increased Epyc-ly in anticipation. Can't wait to see performance on that beast. Though I may opt to go for the 16c/32t HEDT part rather than Naples itself.

EPYC (Naples) MCM shot.

Interesting infinity fabric perf scaling in Spec from 8 to 32 to 64 across two sockets. Mark outlined it linearly. Looking forward to numbers.

It seems you know some more. Please tell us.

Threadripper confirmed by AMD. You can watch the live feed here. In case someone wants.

This summer they say.

 

[Malogeek]

They need to make a multi-CPU socket motherboard that can take a Naples and Ryzen 16core, so you can say you have an Epyc Threadripper

 

[parvadomus]

lol threadripper was real at last. goodybye intel 12 C hedt..

More info about ThreadRipper at Computex.

Yes AMD is EPYC. If you're a fan boy you can follow the learn more link on that page and get some stuff from them. I want to see some benchmarks from those new chips.

Thanks to S|A forums.

I'm sure it won't take too long for folks to notice the process...

Loving the AMD names. Ryzen, Threadripper, EPYC. Sounds like a company that's having a bit of fun with their (hopefully) improving good fortune.

Damn i didnt get it the first time. Lol zen2 at 7nm. Crazy stuff. Good news. Does it mean its tsmc?

Forrest "Datacenter leadership" !

That is a radical statement and priority

Drat. I was really hoping for intermediate Zen updates for some IPC gains before they transitioned to 7nm, which is probably due in 1H 2019.

Hopefully at least with 14nm+, Zen can hit 4.2 GHz or higher for most people.

 

[estarkey7]

Did they give a price for Threadripper? What Socket?

No price info. More info to be released at Computex.

Nah, they will use Samsung 7nm tech.

This. At first, it was cringe worthy, but now, I have to say that AMD's naming is kind of growing on me. It's sort of refreshing to see a company not take itself too seriously with their branding while still letting the performance of their products do the talking, unlike some of its competitors.

Just showed the 32 core chip, and it's 4, 8 core chips that are connected with infinity fabric. Guessing Threadripper will be the same, should keep price way down
