AMD announced today that its new second-gen Threadripper lineup, also known as Threadripper 2 or Threadripper 2000-Series, is open for preorders. The brawny 32-core, 64-thread Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX serves as the $1,799 halo product of the company's new 2000-series lineup. And if you're not after that many cores (or ready to take that big of a hit on your bank account), the flagship chip comes accompanied by several new Threadripper processors that include 12, 16, and 24-core options.
The 32-core Threadripper 2990WX and the $899 16-core 2950X will ship to customers on August 13 and 31, respectively, while the remainder of the processors will come to market in October.

Videos de previews, overclocks extremos y unboxings empiezan a salir al internet al finalizar el embargo.
Uno de los ejemplos es poniendo el AMD Threadripper WX 2990 a 5.1Ghz con LN2 para romper el record de cinebench de intel. Subiendo el limite a 7600 puntos y en stock de 5,000.

Hasta la caja del threadripper esta bien culera y mas grande que la primera edición.
