AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 3995WX Processor Pictured: 8-channel DDR4
Here is the first picture of the Ryzen Threadripper PRO 3995WX processor, designed to be part of AMD's HEDT/workstation processor launch for this year. The picture surfaced briefly on the ChipHell forums, before being picked up by HXL (@9550pro) This processor is designed to compete with Intel Xeon W series processors, such as the W-3175X, and is hence located a segment above even the "normal" Threadripper series led by the 64-core/128-thread Threadripper 3990X. Besides certain features exclusive to Ryzen PRO series processors, the killer feature with the 3995WX is a menacing 8-channel DDR4 memory interface, that can handle up to 2 TB of memory with ECC.
The Threadripper PRO 3995X is expected to have a mostly identical I/O to the most expensive EPYC 7662 processor. As a Ryzen-branded chip, it could feature higher clock speeds than its EPYC counterpart. To enable its 8-channel memory, the processor could come with a new socket, likely the sWRX8, and AMD WRX80 chipset, although it wouldn't surprise us if these processors have some form of inter-compatibility with sTRX4 and TRX40 (at limited memory bandwidth and PCIe capabilities, of course). Sources tell VideoCardz that AMD could announce the Ryzen Threadripper PRO series as early as July 14, 2020.

Speeds are 2666Mhz up to 3600Mhz and timings between CL16 to CL18.
No budget queens here. Though the 3995wx will blow Intel out of the water in terms of price/performance.
Too bad this wasn't released 6 months ago. I would have picked a system up for work over the dual xeon we ended up buying.
only hope now is that a non-braindead SI like Puget saves everyone with a proper custom gigabyte or asus motherboard.
Yeah, im mad as well that i need to get them from lenovo. Their Ram prices is double what i can get in the open market, and the price of the 64 core cpu is basically ridiculous, im sure its overbumped,....
2032 EUR gets you a case, a power source, a motherboard, 1x1TB hdd, 1x16GB ddr4 3200 ECC ram, and the 12 core CPU.
16gb ram 137 EUR per stick, 32gb ram 303 EUR per stick, 64gb 517 EUR per stick (Ram prices are double)
693 EUR upgrade from 12 core to 16 core
2953 EUR upgrade from 12 core to 32 core
6550 EUR upgrade from 12 core to 64 core.
The prices are insane, and you get a shitty motherboard to go with it, you dont even know or see what it has...
