Threadripper 3000 not for 2019

Hardware CPU

threadripper is for quite strange setup where you benefit from a lot of cores/core clocks/ram clocks

With desktop cores increasing I feel like HEDT is becoming a PCIe niche.

44

yeah and maybe if you need the 4 channel memory ( was it 4 channel or 8 cant remember ).

Don’t forget the cloud. A lot of businesses are “outsourcing” their high-end computing and processing to service providers.

4 Channel. I am waiting for TR4 3K too. As I am on X99 right now. I couldn’t justify Ryzen 1 or 2 simply because it would have been a downgrade in my case.

Four for TR, eight on EPYC.

Maybe the original plan was TR3 to be released this year but the EPYC deals being announced and/or worked on is steering production towards EPYC vs TR3.

Honestly AMD probably figures that Threadripper 1000’s and 2000’s is plenty for most users and they can just sell on EPYC if a user somehow needs more than 32 strong Cores like the TR 2990WX or needs quad-channel memory that is.

As many times as Intel refreshes Skylake?

Problem is if we only see 10% gains per generation that there won’t be much reason to upgrade at all until 6 Years Later.

Ah

Yes

So out of fashion.

Legit the stupidest thing I hear about anything that anyone buys new will be old in a week. If they’re holding back a bit to make it better, big whoop.

Last I checked no one was desparate to spend as much money as possible on a pc.
