AMD reveals that Threadripper is built using their best Ryzen CPU dies
AMD’s new Threadripper series of CPUs has been released, bringing with it some impressive benchmark results over a wide range of applications.
One thing that many will have noticed when looking over Threadripper reviews is that AMD’s latest part if overclocking a little better than their Ryzen 7 counterparts, with our own chip maxing out at 4.2GHz.
AMD has designed Threadripper to be used with only the best performing Ryzen CPU dies, to keep electrical leakage at a minimum and to make Threadripper as power and thermally efficient as possible. As a side effect of this, the average Threadripper CPU will overclock better than a Ryzen 7 counterpart, though the silicon lottery still applies.
Ryzen Threadripper has proven to be a very capable part, with out full review on AMD’s Ryzen Threadripper 1950X being available to read here.
