Â
Two AMD 16-core Threadripper parts have been listed online, both of which have clock speeds of over 3.2GHz and match the leaked specifications of older leaks regarding this new platform.Â
Â
These two parts are called the AMD Threadripper 1998 and 1998X, which offer clock speeds of 3.2GHz and 3.5GHz respectively. Previous leaks have suggested that these two CPUs will have boost clocks of 3.6GHz and 3.8GHz, with the 1998X offering a +100MHz XFR boost.Â
Â
AMD’s Threadripper CPU platform is listed as using the new LGA SP3r2 socket, which is likely to be a different socket design than the company’s upcoming EPYC LGA SP3 server socket. Â Below is a list of previously leaked Threadripper CPU specifications.Â
