AMD Removes Third Generation Threadripper from 2019 Roadmap

In the coming months, AMD was to unveil next-generation Ryzen Threadripper 3000 processors based on the new Zen 2 architecture and the new 7nm process node. However, in the 2019 AMD customer lineup, the new third generation Ryzen Threadrippers are missing.

In the latest 2019 roadmap image, AMD had detailed third-generation Ryzen Threadripper processors in its "uninterrupted product" that halted and lost momentum with the latest roadmap. The new, high-core processors have been mysteriously omitted by AMD and the company will probably deploy the next-generation Zen-based Ryzen desktop processors on the new 500-series AM4 socket motherboards, more cost-effective and more simple.

What does it mean for the future of Ryzen Threadripper? Well, we will have to wait to see what AMD says and there is an update (and another change) of the 2019 roadmap at the next press conference. AMD at Computex 2019.

AMD already has EPYC & # 39; Rome & # 39; next generation Zen 2 based on the 7nm node with a huge 64C / 128T processor To come, what should be the next generation Threadripper to differentiate from the current 32C / 64T Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX? First of all, the new 7 nm process will be a major asset in terms of energy efficiency and heartbeat and processor caches, the improvements made by Zen 2 apply, but the most important ones are in the form processor clock speeds, which corresponds to the 1000 and 2000 series both suffer from.

Threadripper's higher-rate 64C / 128T processors would be positioned on top-of-the-line but slower-rate EPYC Rome processors, which means that there must be a form of balance. Otherwise, he leans in favor of the new Ryzen Threadrippers, who must be absolute monsters to be able to grow far enough from the 2990WX and not be too unrestricted mammal to fight against EPYC.
