About the AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2950X CPU
The AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2950X is a 16-core (32-thread) processor built for the desktop CPU market. It launched in Q3 2018 with a suggested retail price of $899. It is part of AMD's Ryzen Threadripper lineup, which is based on the Zen+ microarchitecture. The Threadripper 2950X is compatible with AMD Socket SP3r2 motherboards and is fabricated on GlobalFoundries's 12 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
The Ryzen Threadripper 2950X supports DDR4 memory and features a quad-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 4 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Ryzen Threadripper 2950X has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 96 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 512 KB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 32 MB.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Ryzen Threadripper 2950X features 16 total cores which can process 32 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 3.5 GHz, and it can boost up to 4.4 GHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is unlocked, enabling overclocking for those seeking to push the CPU's performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The Ryzen Threadripper 2950X does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
