Threadripper, but more EPYC! AMD’s Threadripper PRO CPU lineup leaks
Threadripper PRO is what happens when Ryzen PRO and EPYC have a baby, bringing the core counts and I/O options of EPYC and adding them to the Ryzen PRP series, giving customers AMD’s “PRO Technologies”, including PRO Security, PRO manageability and PRO Business Ready software certifications.Â
Videocardz has leaked the entirety of AMD’s planned Threadripper PRO lineup, revealing models which scale from 12 cores all the way to 64 cores. All of these processors will support 8-channel memory, ECC memory and a wide range of DDR4 memory types, including UDIMM, RDIMM, LRDIMM and 3DS RDIMM memory. These processors can support up to 2TB of DRAM on a single processor.Â
Typically, these new Ryzen Threadripper PRO processors feature clock speeds which are a few hundred MHz slower than their standard Ryzen Threadripper counterparts, while offering users more memory channels and a total of 128 PCIe 4.0 lanes. The series is made up of the 12-core 3945WX, the 16-core 3955WX, the 32-core 3975X and the 64-core 3995WX. All of these processors feature a 280W TDP.Â

With Threadripper PRO, AMD is offering its users official support for 3200MHz memory over eight memory channels, and PCIe 4.0 support over 128 PCIe lanes. That’s an insane amount of bandwidth to work with, giving workstation users a lot of options.Â
Threadripper PRO will help AMD to bring Threadripper into the offices of scientists, engineers and other professionals. This is the brand that will target Xeon in the workstation market, and we can see this market being hugely lucrative for AMD.Â
AMD is reportedly planning to release its Ryzen Threadripper PRO lineup on July 14th. Lenovo is already hinting at new workstation announcements on this date on Twitter.Â
