AMD confirms the arrival on July 27 of the new AMD Ryzen 3 and shows the performance of the AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X and 1920X, which logically in Cinebench R15, beats the Intel i9 7900X processor.

More information is coming out regarding the new AMD Ryzen processors, specifically the Ryzen 3 and the Threadripper. The first thing is to talk about the AMD Ryzen 3, which will arrive on the 27th, specifically the Ryzen 3 1200 with four cores and four threads with a base frequency of 3.1GHz, reaching up to 3.4GHz in Boost mode. The Ryzen 3 1300X will arrive with four physical cores and four processing threads as well, with the exception that this processor will have a 3.5GHz base and a 3.7GHz Boost mode which will have the faulty XFR technology.

Now let's get to the good, big time. AMD wanted to show off their chest with the Threadripper 1920X with twelve cores and twenty-four threads of processing with 32MB of L3 cache with a frequency of 3.5GHz and a Boost mode of 4.0GHz with XFR (for what it's good for…) and also with the Threadripper 1950X which will have sixteen cores and thirty-two threads with 32MB of L3 cache with a base frequency of 3.4GHz and a 4.0GHz Boost mode, which will also have that of XFR. The Threadripper 1920X will cost $ 799 and the Threadripper 1950X will cost $ 999.

These four processors joined internally in a DIE of biblical proportions, has been shown by Lisa Su and John Taylor under the Cinebench R15 benchmark. The Threadripper 1950X has given a result of 3062 points and the Threadripper 2431 points, while the Intel i9 7900X with fewer cores gives a result of 2167 points. We must emphasize that this type of benchmark prioritizes the number of cores over the frequency, so it is normal. Intel's top-of-the-range processors are yet to come, which should destroy AMD's Threadripper processors. It should be noted that at the moment for Threadripper there are no heatsinks and we will see how these processors really work and most importantly, their consumption and temperature, which points to be huge.
