AMD “Zen 4” Ryzen Threadripper basato “Picco della tempesta” Superfici con configurazione a 96 core/192 thread
The Ryzen Threadripper 7000-series “Picco della tempesta” processor engineering samples surfaced on the Einstein@Home user database. As many as three OPNs have surfaced, “Esempio di ingegneria AMD: 100-000000884-21_N” e “Esempio di ingegneria AMD: 100-000000884-20_Y,” which are 96-core/192-thread; e la “Esempio di ingegneria AMD: 100-000000454-20_Y,” which is 64-core/128-thread. “Picco della tempesta” is likely just a variation of EPYC “Genova,” geared for higher frequencies.
How AMD sells these chips is a whole different story. The company skipped the client-HEDT market entirely for its “Zen 3” based Ryzen Threadripper 5000 serie, and only targeted the workstation-HEDT market under the “WX” brand extension. The expectation now is that it could do something similar, by making Ryzen Threadripper 7000WX series SKUs that are initially sold exclusively through pre-built workstation manufacturers such as Lenovo, with a retail-channel launch expected some 6 months afterward.
Even as a workstation-only processor, “Picco della tempesta” has some jaw-dropping I/O specs that could include 12-channel DDR5 memory (24 x 40-bit sub-channels); and up to 160 PCI Express Gen 5.0 corsie, which can connect up to 10 graphics cards at full x16 bandwidth; or a heap of PCIe Gen 5 x4 NVMe SSDs and other high-bandwidth devices. AMD is expected to develop an exclusive chipset and CPU socket for these processors, which could be a variation of SP5.
