ladies and gentlemen Here I am in Italy Maranello and we're near the Ferrari factory however you may have seen that video before about the Ferrari and it being sponsored by AMD but now the real news comes to light I was here for the thread Ripper launch and it was incredible because AMD are bringing something massive to the table and that is 32 cores 64 threads and they're bringing it at $17.99 USD and that's dropping August the 13th - stay tuned for the review but they're also releasing with that another three different models and that is the 29 70 X with its 24 cores 48 threads that's coming in at $12.99 and they're also releasing the 29 50 X and 29 20 X with their 16 cores and 12 cores respectively and they're essentially updates of the previous first gen thread Ripper CPUs now you do get the 12 nanometer + architecture upgrades like you did over the 2700 x1 now released over the first gen and also the good thing around is this time as well is you've got that backwards compatibility with those motherboards so if you've gone out and bought an X 399 motherboard then the great news is you can just reuse that board and even if you bought one brand new one off from previous stock and you got it at a good price for example then you can use a USB key without a CPU in there and BIOS flash it to support the new second generation rise and thread Ripper CPUs but only do you get that really competitive pricing in the massive amount of PCIe lanes and even the lower latency is compared to the first gen thread Ripper you also get now an introduction of some new products for instance the raised Ripper cooler which can handle up to 250 Watts TDP which is the out-of-the-box TDP settings for both the 24 core and the 32 core weather all the attention seems to be focused with this launch however let's go inside the event and see what they're doing with these CPUs because I heard there is some extreme overclocking so we'll take a look at some figures and see what comes out of this especially with the new rise and master software where you can get the best out of both single and all core performance so now we're inside the event and the first demo I had got drawn to his Adobe dimension CC and essentially does all the ray-tracing and this really showcases the power of the 32 course read Ripper CBU you hit that render button and it'll essentially separate all the different objects into easy Photoshop exports so they can then trace it by layout and you see all those caused genes just being utilized near a hundred percent this really just finishes the job off in like a minute and seven seconds and it's really a matter of when the software supports the 32 or 64 thread process that's when you get the most benefit out of something like the twenty nine ninety WX CPU so next up here we've got Maya and here's a clear demo of how powerful the twenty nine ninety WX can be for people in this profession we've got the plug-in here with Arnold render view and it's rendering it out real-time way if you want to get a shot on how the final price is going to look how the lights going to bounce off objects and certain final ray tracing segments of this initial sketch here you can do that and save a lot of time so it's really incredible when these thirty two calls get pegged how just just really how raw and how much power you have at your disposal which is I think in the right situation as we looked at before with Adobe dimension CC really showcases the power of this CPU and you see right here in live time just those cores being pegged at a hundred percent and then it's actually finalizing this image in our Arnold render view which is a plug-in for Maya to know who you have the radio on / render demo and they're showing a Ferrari being rendered in real time now this is a balance between the CPU and the GPU and again the 32 for 64 threads are being pegged at a hundred percent and these pink squares here essentially show that that's the portion of the CPUs rendering while the portion that you can't see is actually being rendered by the GPU so they're working handed and to get this image rendered out very powerful software essentially for 3d modeling and getting a final look what something would look like realistically in the real world so of course a massive part of X 3 9 9 is the motherboards in a Zeus are offering an upgrade kit if you've already got a zenith extreme you can then get the fan for the vrm cooling but there are some new models as well coming out from MSI and gigabyte refresh models with essentially massive massive VRMs beefed-up beyond that of the leaf so if you're into overclocking you maybe we should take a look at one of those boards but of course the standard X 399 boards we talked about before all you have to do is drop a BIOS update and you should be good to go especially for achieving a sweet spot overclock on the 2990 WX CPUs and with the introduction of tr4 sockets we have cooling solutions and here we have the Wraiths Ripper cooler coming in around $100 I'm not certain on the price just yet but it will handle the 2990 WX out of the box absolutely fine even with precision overdrive which is a new feature that they're bringing on their CPUs basically automatic overclocking however you will void your warranty on the CPU if you decide to utilize that feature but this thing can definitely handle it Kumasi are also releasing a.m. a 6 to 1 P as well as a 360 Mill tr4 Edition cooler with a bigger base plate that will fully cover these new thread Ripper CPUs Animax have previously done it Corsair haven't quite catching on to the trend even though they do have support for the tr4 socket they haven't quite caught on with that massive cooler into passing all of the CPU area so now on the table here we've got the 2990 WX on ln2 and we're going of course the sky high scores in Cinebench what i've seen so far is 4.9 gigahertz on all 32 cores and that managed to score a cinnamon score over 7000 100 points I did manage to get that on camera before this crashed out and also another thing about these CPUs is that they are utilizing the top 5% of dies and putting them in the thread Ripper CPUs so in other words they will be the best of the best in terms of efficiency which means you can get higher speeds or in comparison to the 2700 X you can come close to those eight core speeds without compromising too much and that about wraps up the thread Ripper second generation unboxing and event here hope you guys enjoyed today's video if you did then be sure to hit that like button but also there may be some questions of what's the difference now between epic and thread ripping 2nd generation since you now have the 32 core on the stack and there's the 8 channel memory on the epic versus the quad channel on the thread Ripper second generation CPUs also epic does scale you can have more than just one CPU connecting to each other so you can have up to 64 cores or more if you have two epic CPUs on a workstation motherboard for example or a server grade motherboard as opposed to the X 3 9 9 which can only support up to one seat to you now a big reason for upgrading from the previous thread Ripper CPUs which 16 core is that at for instance admirer or other programs when you've got a single license it's only for one CPU so upgrading that CPU you're extracting a lot more value as we saw here today on some of those demos where they were utilizing all those cores and all those threads so it's just really cool event here today saw some performance saw some overclocking hope you guys enjoyed this one and I'll catch you in another tech video very soon peace out for now bye and definitely handle it there's also the 360 low radiators and water coolers that we've seen come out of the inside the event and see what they're doing with these CPUs because I heard there is some extreme overclocking so we'll take a look at some figures and see what comes out of this especially with the new rising master software where you can control the best out of the both
