Question Please can someone explain why the specs on the incoming 16 core 3rd gen TR seem worse than the current HEDT processors

[spikeysonic]

ok can someone explain this one.

The new Threadripper 3rd gen processors coming in 'Hopefully this time' in November are suppose to be the Mutts nuts better than all etc etc.

They are supposed to be superceeding the likes of the 2950x 16 core 3.5ghx regular to 4.4 turbo HEDT processor.

Supposed to have higher IPC and single thread speed as thats what let them down with the 2nd gen Threadrippers compared with the likes of the I9 series processors like the i9 9900x and i99960x .

Supposed to be better than the new Ryzen 3950x 16 core 3.5ghz to 4.7 ghz turbo processor comming in.

So why is their 16 core TR leak only saying 3.5ghz to 4.2ghz turbo as thats sounds pretty naf .


Now I know some of thr TR are supposed to come with much higher core counts but are they not all supposed to have higher IPC and single thread counts than current I9 processors and the next ones due out?

It's a leak, so wait for real information, you don't know the cooling situation, the bios situation, whether it was being limited in some way.
