What happened to the threadripper

What's the point when you can have 12 cores @ 5Ghz?

Segmentation, maybe? The chiplets are basically ideally segmentable, maybe the yields and binning turned out such that they'll simply make more money selling them in other products.

Btw, wtf are shit like ryzen 2600E, 2500x, 2300x, etc. Just went to check their website and saw these listed. Googled them and apparently, the 2600E has been out since last year. Wtf are these chips? How come I never heard about them?

I was planning on buying a threadripper machine next build but ryzen 3 is legit too good I don't think I need more than a 3900X and I'd rather have the lower power consumption and lower heat

64 core threadripper 3 is coming

When the basic desktop processor line has 12 and 16 core cpus, that means they need a reason to actually buy threadripper.

They already have 32-core threadrippers, so when they come out with the new version, they'll need to ensure they one-up themselves. Expect to see 32-core as the new baseline part with a 48 and 64 part to round out the mid and high end.

This probably will take some time to get working well.

i would pay double that if it turbos high enough at stock and has quad channel ram with ecc

>wants a high core count processor that "turbos high" and ECC
fucking enthusiasts

Thing is they still need to maintain a presense. I'm not by any means a market specialist, but I was under the impression that server/high performance markets in particular are very hard to break in to because of inertia. Threadripper started making headway IIRC but common sense suggests that if they then just stop making it for like a gen, that might weaken their position quite a bit, and even if they get more profit in the short term as a result, it'll set back their efforts to gain large shares of those markets.

Maybe I'm totally wrong, but it just seems like common sense to me.

The fuck are you talking about? Servers, datacenters, etc. are already moving to epyc. Threadrippers can make their way into smaller servers though.

OEM chips

Shit/leaky dies go to ryzen and the good dies go to EPYC. TR has to wait because EPYC is where the real money is (especially since rome has half the TDP of those stupid platinum chips).

Leaky chips overclock better though so it's not necessarily shit for desktop

lol retard

Server chips are about power effeciency - a leaky die that overclocks well is better served for the desktop market.

Threadripper 3 is coming, Su already confirmed that. Yields are too low to build stock so availability is going to be later.

2019 lineup. Its still to be unveiled.

That would be $4000

[x] Doubt

That's the type of thinking that got Intel in its current predicament

Needed it's own board

Pretty substantiated "rumour", given that motherboard vendors have been demonstrating the chip in public.
