AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3960X Review

The AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3960X is currently ranked as the number one best value cpu for the sTRX4 AMD motherboards. The CPU is a little pricey, but it will provide the best performance for its buck.

The CPU is currently listed at $1518.99 on the manufacturers website.

 

 

The specification of the CPU are quite good:

  •  

    28 Cores

  • 48 Threads
  • Base Frequency of 3.8 GHz
  • Boost Frequency of 4.5 GHz
  • 128 MB of L3 Cache

 

This CPU is rated highly on Passmark. I has an overall rating of 54,701 and a single thread rating of 2678. This CPU can compete with other middle end CPUs in single thread and blows them out of the water for overall rating.

While there are cheaper options for great performance, this is your best choice for a good bang for your buck.
