AMD teases 3rd Gen Ryzen Threadripper with Blur Studios collaboration

In their latest Threadripper teaser, AMD has revealed its work with Blur Studio, the company behind some of the visual effects seen in Terminator: Dark Fate, Love, Death Robots, League of Legends’ animated shorts and more. With Blur Studios, AMD has “battle-tested” their 3rd Generation Threadripper processors, placing their processors under what’s likely to be some of the most challenging workloads that the HEDT market has to throw at them. 

While AMD’s latest teaser video, which is embedded below, doesn’t reveal any new information about their upcoming 3rd Generation Threadripper processors, we do know that HEDT users should expect a substantial generational leap in CPU performance. For starters, there’s AMD’s Zen 2 cores and 7nm manufacturing. However, the big change will come in the form of AMD’s new multi-die CPU architecture, which addresses many of the quirks of 1st and 2nd Generation Threadripper CPUs. 

3rd Generation Threadripper processors promise the performance of high core/thread counts, and none of the downsides of AMD’s older multi-die Threadripper processors. Thanks to AMD’s Zen 2 multi-die architecture, AMD has successfully mitigated the problems that their existing Threadripper lineup faces.
