Summary
About the AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3990X CPU
The AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3990X is a 64-core (128-thread) processor built for the desktop CPU market. It launched in Q1 2020 with a suggested retail price of $3,990. It is part of AMD's Ryzen Threadripper lineup, which is based on the Zen 2 microarchitecture. The Threadripper 3990X is compatible with AMD Socket TRX4 motherboards and is fabricated on TSMC's 7 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
The Ryzen Threadripper 3990X 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 3990X has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 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 256 MB.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Ryzen Threadripper 3990X features 64 total cores which can process 128 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2.9 GHz, and it can boost up to 4.3 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 3990X does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
About the Intel Pentium SU2700 CPU
The Intel Pentium SU2700 is an end-of-life 1-core (1-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. It launched in Q2 2009. It is part of Intel's Pentium Dual-Core lineup, which is based on the Penryn microarchitecture. The SU2700 is compatible with Intel BGA 956 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 45 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
The Pentium SU2700 supports DDR3 memory. In terms of cache, the Pentium SU2700 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 2 MB, is larger but slower than the L1.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Pentium SU2700 is a single-core and single-threaded CPU, making it not capable of processing multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 1300.0 MHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The Pentium SU2700 does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
