AMD would launch a 5000-core Threadripper 16 processor

AMD's Zen architecture, which seemed like a rather risky bet, has been confirmed as the new line of processors in the industry. The developer of the "Clock Tuner for AMD Ryzen" tool, "1usmus", has given clues about the new Threadrippers. Specifically, he has given information about the Threadripper 5000 of the Genesis Peak family.

For those who do not know what Threadripper processors are, they are a solution halfway between 'domestic' processors and processors for servers. Threadrippers were independently developed by AMD engineers and are intended for Workstations.

«1usmus» reveals details about the AMD Threadripper 5000 processor

This new Threadripper 5000 processor family is based on the Zen3 @ 7nm architecture. They should offer a big jump from the previous processor family. According to "1usmus", the Threadripper 5000 processor range will only have four processors.

Specifically, «1usmus» posted the following string on Twitter: «47454e4553495320313620434f524553». This meaningless alphanumeric combination is written in hexadecimal and must be translated to ASCII. The translation is: «Genesis 16 cores»

Following the dotted line, we're talking about a Threadripper 5000 (Genesis Peak) with 'only' 16 cores. Remember that the Threadripper 3960X is the simplest in this family with 24 cores and 48 threads . If this is confirmed, the Threadripper 5000 series will add a new model, as there are only three Threadripper 3000 models.
