Title says it all: 2019 Mac Pro - Is the 28 core option the Intel Xeon W-3275?

W-3275M it's probably an Apple specific variant. As they get a lot of custom parts. Which generally aren't much different than the standard models.

velocityg4 Thank you. It's a shame that Apple will never try AMD 3rd or 4th gen Threadripper CPUs in their workstations, especially before they are transitioning to Apple (Arm) silicon in the next 1-2 years.

Yes it is. Threadripper would be perfect for the iMac Pro and Epyc would be perfect for the Mac Pro. I say Epyc for the MP due to the 2TB of RAM it can handle.
