Budget Entry into the Threadripper Universe

With the Ryzen Threadripper 2920X, AMD is trying to fight back against Intel’s Core i9-9900K by bringing to market a consistent improvement on its respective previous model. However, there is nothing truly amazing here.

During the test tests, the CPU showed excellent performance, even if it could not compete with the current top models of our respective rating, as they have a large number of cores, up to 32. In particular, the Threadripper 2920X in the Cinebench R15 benchmark achieves a good 2,591 points, and in PCMark 8, the launch result was an outstanding 3,853 points. Running the Monte-Carlo Excel simulation and the HandBrake benchmark (which measures multimedia performance) put Threadripper in a good ninth place.

Power compressed into 12 cores

In particular, the Threadripper 2920X, like last year’s model, has 12 cores running at a base clock speed of 3.5 GHz, with simultaneous processing of 24 data streams, and a 32 MB L3 cache. At the same time, the clock frequency in Boost mode is higher here — 4.3 GHz.

As the maximum heat dissipation power (TDP), the manufacturer indicates 180 W, which is a relatively high value, but still quite within reason for such a high-performance processor.

Overclocking enabled

Another highlight of the Ryzen-2000 series CPUs is the auto-clocking and overclocking features. Thanks to XFR2 and Precision Boost, the processor itself knows when it has enough resources to safely overclock. At the same time, the CPU is especially well suited for all those who want to dive into the Threadripper universe inexpensively and without much fiddling with the configurator.

If, on the contrary, you place more value on maximum performance without compromise, then our top-end alternative will suit you much better: AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX (3GHz) socket TR4

So that you have something to compare with, we offer you to look at such beauty for about the same money:

Product Conclusion:

Although AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2920X is an entry-level model in the second generation of Threadripper, it offers significantly higher performance than conventional «consumer» CPUs. During the test tests, the 12-core processor showed its strongest qualities in those applications that can work with a large number of cores. However, thanks to the integrated automatic configurator, we liked the performance in games and other applications that require intensive calculations. The level of power consumption turned out to be relatively high, as in almost all extreme CPUs, but the cost, on the contrary, can be considered relatively reasonable.

Alternative options:

AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X (3.4 GHz) socket TR4

The fact that the previous generation of the Threadripper line is still too early to write off is proved by its example AMD Ryzen 1950X. A powerful processor with 16 cores and 32 threads of simultaneously processed data is in some ways significantly superior to the Threadripper 2920X. And although some of the features that appeared in the current generation are missing here, this should not frighten professional users in any way. The Threadripper 1950X is priced at around Rs 51,000.
