Four SKUs with some aggressive pricing
AMD has now officially lifted the NDA veil off its new 2nd generation Ryzen Threadripper 2000-series lineup. The lineup has four different SKUs that will be available on different dates, including the workstation-oriented Threadripper 2990WX and the Threadripper 2970WX, as well as consumer/enthusiast-oriented Threadripper 2950X and the Threadripper 2920X.
As expected, the entire 2nd generation Ryzen Threadripper lineup will use the 12nm Pinnacle Ridge architecture, which we saw earlier with the 2nd generation Ryzen CPUs, bringing slight IPC improvement, memory compatibility, new Precision Boost 2.0, XFR 2.0 technologies, and more.
Specification-wise, there are some differences between the workstation-oriented Threadripper 2990WX, 2970WX, and the consumer-oriented 2950X and 2920X, due to the higher core count and the way AMD had to deal with backward-compatibility with the TR4 platform and the quad-channel memory interface as well as PCIe connectivity, but we will get to that a bit later.
