The AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X is a Server processor with 16 cores, launched in 2017. It is part of the Ryzen Threadripper lineup, using the Zen architecture with Socket sTR4. The core-count is effectively doubled, to 32 threads. Ryzen Threadripper 1950X has 32MB of L3 cache and operates at 3.4 GHz by default, but can boost up to 4 GHz, depending on the workload. AMD is building the Ryzen Threadripper 1950X on a 14 nm production process. You may freely adjust the unlocked multiplier on Ryzen Threadripper 1950X, which simplifies overclocking greatly, as you can dial in any overclocking frequency up to 4.1GHz. With a TDP of 180 W, the Ryzen Threadripper 1950X consumes a lot of power, so good cooling is definitely needed. AMD's processor supports DDR4 memory with a dual-channel interface. It is worth noting that this processor does not have integrated graphics. This processor can run on motherboards with the following chipsets: X399.
