The Threadripper 1920X offers more performance
Uses less power and runs cooler than the Core i97900X. It also supports ECC memory (Intel's X299 platform doesn't). Compared to the Ryzen 7 1800X
The 1920X touts quadchannel memory support and more PCIe lan
Better performance than the equivalent Intel chip for the price
Fully featured platform across all chips
While liquid cooling is a must
Theadripper is easier to tame than Skylake-X
Huge improvements in production tasks over mainstream CPUs
Competitiv
Workstation and productivity applications
Price per core
Solder
MultiThreaded performance
PCIe connectivity
Wildly extreme 32-thread performance
For the same price as Intel's new 20-thread Core X-Series CPU
Platform is overflowing with PCI Express lanes
Great Multi-Threaded Performance
Massive Amounts Of IO
High Memory Bandwidth
Modern Chipset Support
Unlocked And Tweakable
Disruptive Pricing
The editors didn't like
The $1
000 Threadripper 1950X is competitively priced but nonetheless comes at a hefty premium. Threadripper falls a tad behind when it comes to gaming
Overclocking remains limited
Needs a suitably robust cooling setup and power supply
Lags behind Intel in overall IPC performance
Confusing settings
Low resolution gaming performance
CPU is large and will need a robust cooler
Particularly when overclocking
Byzantine installation process compared to mainstream CPUs
Competing Intel chips are better at lightly threaded tasks
If you need Threadripper, you'll know it. Heavy multitaskers, streamers, those who regularly use heavily threaded applications or have heavy PCIe requirements will all experience competitive performance. The recommendation comes with a caveat, though; if...
Amazing multi-core performance, Plenty of PCIe lanes, Fast memory support, Very competitive pricing, Strong multi-tasking capabilities
Middling single-core performance
Yes. For those who need this sort of a horsepower to render videos and 3D scenes, work with raytraced lighting, or handle major encoding tasks without having to hand over their entire system, the choice is clear. The high-end Threadripper chips offer bett...
If you're looking for a processor that does it all, then the AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X is definitely the top choice.(previously published in issue December 2017)...
Abstract: Let's start – The AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1920X and 1950X has just entered the market and these TR4 monsters retail at RM 3,899 and RM 4,799 respectively. THE END. Kthxbai.Oh you want to know more? Well no problem, I'll be more than delighted to share.
Great performance out of the box, Processor performance still steady after overclocking, Ryzen Master Utility is more useful than before
CPU installation can be cumbersome, Overclocking becomes tricky after 4GHz
Considering how long it's been since AMD last launched an enthusiast-grade CPU, it's safe to say that the company's hard work and effort on this CPU has finally paid off. Like the Ryzen 7 1800X that we reviewed earlier in the year, the performance and pow...
Abstract: When AMD launched the Ryzen processors and they seem to beat or match their Intel counter parts in almost every test, proving to us that AMD is back and they are not playing games anymore. The entire Ryzen line of processors seems to take centre stage as...

Outstanding multithreaded performance, All those PCIe lanes, Soldered heatspreader, Affordability (relative), Feature rich HEDT platform
Low res gaming performance isn't fantastic, Intel leads still in single threaded performance
Drawing a final conclusion on a product like this is somewhat difficult. For some users, it doesn't make any sense at all, but for others, it is simply magnificent. You'll know which category you fall in.AMD's mainstream Ryzen CPUs have reinvigorated the...
Abstract: AMD's new Ryzen Threadripper processors are so good that we can almost forgive it its ridiculous name. That puny quad-core CPU you've got in your current rig? Threadripper will, well, rip through it like a sledgehammer through a paper wall.These may quite...
AMD is back in the gameIt's safe to say that AMD has left the troubled days of Bulldozer behind it. Ryzen Threadripper is an admirable re-entry into the HEDT market, and it's looking like a very compelling option compared to Intel's Core X processors.One...
