The center of the screen is "Ryzen Threadripper 1920X", the right end is 10 cores / 20 threads "Intel Core i9-7900X"


At the same time we started the rendering test.


"1920X" is faster than Intel's current high-end model "Core i9-7900X" rendering is completed and the score is over 2400. For Core i9-7900X versus 2,100 per degree.


"1920X is a wonderful thing, how about the 1950X?" To the Sue CEO who talks to him, "I am excited about the 1650 core model 1950X," Hallock said.


The score of 1950X is wonderful 3000 over. We showed the power of 16 cores / 32 threads in various ways.


Taylor vice president who asks "What is the price?"

Since Intel's Core i9-7900X is 999 dollars (about 110,000 yen), Intel is totally released at the same price, releasing 1950 X, a high-end model that is overwhelming with performance by 20% cheaper than the high performance 1920 X, at the same price It is a strategic pricing for dashing.


It is said that the release of Ryzen Threadripper is in early August 2017. AMD Ryzen Threadripper beyond the Intel high-end model will finally appear in the "Summer of 2017" as planned.


Intel's high-end CPU "Core i9-7900X" not only is expensive but also has a problem of heat generation due to grease burger condition, so PCI-Express supports 64 lanes and higher performance & lower price Ryzen Threadripper 1920X is strong It is likely to be too competitive.

Intel plans to release a higher performance model than Core i9-7900X in 2017, but intel's Core-X series tends to have frequency suppression as the number of cores increases, so it will be released in the future In the Skylake-X generation "Core i9" of 12 cores or more, it may be forced to change the specification from grease to soldering.

Also, Ryzen Threadripper is expected to have 9 types of SKUs, 10 cores, 12 cores, 14 cores, and 16 cores in total, and it is expected to be low for 84 coins per 16 cores / 32 threads (about 97,000 yen) There are also rumors that you are preparing a price model. Intel's Skyalake-X and Kaby Lake-X series are inevitable to struggle because Ryzen Threadripper's 10 core / 12 core model will be sold for less than $ 800 (about 90,000 yen).
