Needless to say, even its own price, this is not everyone’s processor. Even though it was more expensive, not many people would really benefit from a large number of process threads, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t work out to show what it can do, especially in terms of overall performance. Threadripper 3990X does not stop providing AMD excitement even when people don’t buy it.
More than 5.5 GHz in 64 channels
Splave professional overclocker has already managed to increase the operating frequency of this processor to 5.4 GHz, pulling performance records from Cinebench, Geekbench, wPrime and GPUPI into the currently configured CPUs.
Most impressive is the record at the Cinebench R20, where the Ryzen Threadripper 3990X at 5.3 GHz has reached 39,518 points. In a test with this same processor with no over 24,685 points available, that is overuls means an increase of less than 60%.
But the new speed record has been set by Korea safeedisk, increasing the operating frequency to 5.57 GHz across cores.
At this speed, he was able to set many performance records, including the Cinebench R15 with 18,832 points on multi-core. Currently, the 3990X processor leads the operating tables of the Cinebench R20, Cinebench R15, Geekbench 3, WPrime and GPUPI for CPU, and in HWBOT x265 test.
Accessible processor for a few
If the price of more than 4,000$ (Example Amazon. No referal. Link) of this processor is already making it inaccessible to the majority of users, it is fair to say that in these extreme records they have used liquid cooling. liquid nitrogen
There is no doubt that AMD gets the most numbers in terms of prestige and fame through this processor, but the question is, is this money really profitable for the company? The Threadripper 3990X is the protagonist of many last-day news, which gives the company a lot of information, but the fact is that they won’t sell many units that we say. How appropriate is this for AMD?
