Leaked Shipping Logs Reveal AMD Threadripper PRO 9975WX and 9965WX with 32 and 24 Cores, Featuring 350W TDP

AMD is poised to continue its legacy of high-performance computing with the upcoming Threadripper PRO 9000 series, which appears to maintain its predecessor’s core specifications, according to recent leaks from NBD shipping manifests.

Leak of AMD Threadripper PRO 9000WX Specifications

The Threadripper series, renowned for its exceptional capabilities in workstation environments, has been a staple in AMD’s lineup since its inception alongside the Ryzen 1000 series. While AMD has successfully launched the Zen 5-based Ryzen 9000 CPUs aimed at mainstream desktop applications, the eagerly awaited Threadripper 9000 series has yet to debut officially.

Recent leaks hint at the specifications of this next-generation series. Although AMD has not officially revealed details about the Threadripper 9000 CPUs, the shipping logs have unveiled intriguing information. Following the launch of the Threadripper 7000 series in 2023, which utilized the Zen 4 architecture, the upcoming Threadripper 9000 series is set to leverage the more advanced Zen 5 architecture, with expected release dates later this year.

Through a tweet from user @Olrak29_ (now deleted), key insights regarding two WeUs from the Threadripper 9000 series have emerged. The models in question are the Threadripper PRO 9965WX, boasting 24 cores, and the Threadripper PRO 9975WX, featuring an impressive 32-core configuration. As is characteristic of this series, both CPUs will incorporate hyperthreading, resulting in processing capabilities of 48 threads for the 9965WX and 64 threads for the 9975WX.

When compared to their predecessors, these new models maintain the same core and thread configurations. Similar to the Ryzen series, there will not be an increase in the core or thread counts. Both CPUs will operate at a common Thermal Design Power (TDP) of 350W, which aligns with the entire Threadripper PRO 7000WX range, spanning from the least powerful 12-core variant to the top-end 96-core configuration. Notably, the 9975WX, while impressive, is not the apex of the Threadripper lineup; that title belongs to the forthcoming Threadripper PRO 9995WX, slated to deliver an astounding 96 cores and 192 threads.

In addition to the 9975WX, AMD is expected to introduce the Threadripper PRO 9985WX, which will bring 64 cores and 128 threads to the table. One of the key differentiators between the 9975WX/9965WX models and their 7975WX/7965WX predecessors is the architectural upgrade alongside anticipated enhancements in clock speeds. While specific clock speeds remain undisclosed, other features such as the socket type and manufacturing process have been confirmed through previous leaks. The Threadripper 9000 series will utilize the same SP6 socket as the Threadripper 7000 series, built on a more efficient 4nm process node compared to the 5nm technology employed in earlier iterations.
