AMD, which has made a big attack in the processor market with the Ryzen series in recent years, made some statements about the Threadripper Pro 5000 WX and Ryzen Embedded R2000 series. It has been announced that starting July 2022, Threadripper PRO 5000 WX-series processors will be available worldwide.
Threadripper platform, especially Threadripper PRO 5000 WX processors, will use a single common infrastructure. It will be a CPU chipset, socket, and each processor will use AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO silicon with support for 128 lanes PCIe Gen 4 and 8-channel RDIMMs.

Selected from select ODM partners, WRX80 motherboards will support both memory and CPU overclocking for users who want to push the performance of their workstations to their limits. Threadripper PRO 5000 WX-Series will use the WRX80 chipset.
Processor | Core / Thread | Operating Frequency | TDP |
AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5995WX | 64 / 128 | 4.5 / 2.7GHz | 280W |
AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5975WX | 32 / 64 | 4.5 / 3.6 GHz | 280W |
AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5965WX | 24 / 48 | 4.5 / 3.8GHz | 280W |
Customers with an existing WRX80-based motherboard will be able to directly upgrade to Threadripper PRO 5000 WX-series processors via BIOS update.
Additionally, AMD has announced its second-generation mid-range Ryzen Embedded R2000 Series processors, which offer up to an 81 percent increase in both processor and graphics performance over the previous generation. The new processor lineup is designed for use in today’s most popular industrial applications (machinery and robotics), as well as IoT and thin client devices.
The Embedded R2000 Series delivers a new level of performance by doubling the core count over the previous generation, and provides extended scalability support with up to 10 years of planned product availability, Windows 11 support and advanced security features.
AMD will showcase its new Ryzen Embedded R2000 Series processors at the AMD booth at Embedded World this week.
