AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3960x在TRX40主板上的性能分析

20.19 has been a phenomenal year for AMD, which saw them making several headlines, one after another. First, there was the announcement of the world’s first ever processor to use the 7nm FinFET process – the 3rd generation Ryzen (AM4 platform). Then, they released their high-end Ryzen 9 3950X with much fanfare, and it’s currently the most affordable“desktop”处理器具有最多的核心(16个核心/ 32个线程)耗时仅为749美元。这两个头条新闻都在比赛中击败了英特尔。在此日期,英特尔仍然没有发布7nm CPU,他们所谓的“旗舰”核心桌面处理器 - 核心I9-9900K仍在14nm上只有8个核心/ 16个线程。但等等,我还没完成!

AMD最新的爱好者系列和高端桌面(HEDT) processors, the Ryzen Threadripper 3000-series (aka codename Castle Peak) is based on the Zen 2 micro-architecture, and is fabricated on TSMC 7 nm process. It is currently boasts the most cores to date, and yet again beating Intel in every department. Right now, you can get the Ryzen Threadripper 3970X processor (TRX4) featuring 7nm technology, 32 cores/64 threads and a massive 128MB L3 cache. Intel can only muster 18 cores/36 threads on their Core i9-10980XE processor (LGA2066) which is still on 14nm technology!

What’s more, to keep the momentum going, AMD plans to release their up-coming flagship Threadripper 3990X in early 2020, and this beast will feature a massive 64 cores/128 threads!

In the performance analysis, we’ll be using the Ryzen Threadripper 3960X processor on a TRX40 Taichi motherboard from ASRock. As you can see below, the Threadripper 3960X features 7nm “Zen 2” architecture, and supports all of the 3rd Gen Ryzen features. It comes with a total of 24 cores/48 threads, and a massive cache of 140Mb, operating on a base frequency of 3.8 GHz with a boost speed of 4.5 GHz.

Apologies, our sample did not come with the original packaging. But you can expect to find astorx allen key(star shaped) for unlocking the sTRX4 socket on the motherboard. Also be sure you purchase a compatible CPU cooler!Full list of compatible coolers can be found here
