At AMD’s “Meet the Experts” webinar, it was revealed that pre-orders for AMD’s Threadripper hardware will start on July 27th, with CPUs officially coming to market on August 10th.
This high-end desktop platform will support AMD’s upcoming 12-core and 16-core Ryzen processors and offer users the ability to use up to 64 lanes of PCIe bandwidth, making this motherboard perfect for a multi-GPU compute setup, even when using multiple M.2 NVMe SSDs.
At this time the pricing structure for X399 motherboard is unknown, though they are expected to be priced similarly to their X299 equivalents, though AMD’s colossal TR4 socket could add to the price significantly.
