AMD Ryzen Threadripper 7000 based on Zen 4 detected with TDP of 350W

HEDT platforms don’t have the audience they once had since with most users having more than enough native solution kernels they don’t need to move to a more expensive platform which is why it’s the most forgotten part, in fact it was Intel that did popularizing them but it’s AMD that keeps them alive, although Intel launched, without much success, a Xeon W based on Sapphire Rapids this year.

We now know that AMD is planning Zen 5-based Threadripper 8000s for some time to come, so it doesn’t look like they want to leave the segment in the next few years. At the moment the new is Threadripper 7000 about new details have been leaked.

We still don’t know the date, rumors still mention Q3, but at least we already know some models and the socket used: AMD SP6 socket, the same socket used by AMD EPYC 8004 Siena processors based on Zen 4c cores and with a maximum of 64 cores.

Three models of the future Storm Peak series have been leaked and they all have one more thing in common: 350W TDP so they are clearly not low consumption solutions but they won’t reach stratospheric numbers either.

There is skepticism about their intended market because they suggest that the first Threadripper 7000 we’ll see are the professional variants intended for workstations and therefore won’t be for sale in stores and seeing what happened with the Threadripper 5000 it may not make it to the DIY market.

The detected models are 7945WX, 7985WX, and 7995WX. These new rumors don’t mention an exact number of cores and some media are giving mixed information about it, but it seems that the first will be a 12-core, 24-thread solution, while the second will be 64-cores and 128-threads. Finally around the 7995WX at VideoCardz they put it in the same core count as the previous model and instead WCCF Tech and Tom’s Hardware told us it would be a 96-core, 192-core processor. Theoretically, the family would have models with 32 and 48 cores but it wasn’t caught up at the time. Present.
