Title: AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2950X (16 core, 32 threads) Review
Post by: Redaktion on August 13, 2018, 16:20:37
AMD has released its new generation of Threadripper APUs following the successful launch of its second generation Ryzen desktop APUs. The new Threadripper series not only make incremental improvements over the last generation but also introduces Ryzen APUs with up to thirty-two cores and sixty-four threads. These new APUs are AMD's shot at capturing the high-performance processor crown, something that will no doubt put pressure on Intel. We will be focusing on the Ryzen Threadripper 2950X in this review and establish whether this sixteen-core APU is worth the investment.

Hi Alex.

You write all places in the review the word 'APU'. I checked in the German review, there is the word CPU used.I belive CPU is the right word. AMD call a CPU with integrated graphics a APU, and the Threadripper have no integrated graphids.
