“AMD is positioning itself as a serious competitor in high-end enterprise environments by offering scalable performance, platform stability, and enterprise-grade manageability through AMD Pro Technologies,” said Manish Rawat, semiconductor analyst, TechInsights.
The Ryzen Threadripper Pro 9995WX comes with 96 cores and 192 threads, designed for tasks like visual effects, simulations, and developing AI models. It includes up to 384MB of L3 cache and supports 128 PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) 5.0 lanes, for handling large datasets, multiple GPUs, and memory-heavy workloads, said the company. The Pro models also come equipped with AMD PRO technologies for enterprise-grade security, manageability, and platform stability, helping to simplify IT operations.
“AMD’s Threadripper Pro 9000 Series stands out at excelling in CPU-intensive and multi-threaded tasks, and has emerged as a strong alternative to Intel Xeon and Nvidia workstation-class platforms,” Rawat said. “A major advantage lies in its core and thread density, with the flagship 96-core 9995WX significantly surpassing Intel’s Xeon W-3400 series, which maxes out at 56 cores.” This higher core count, combined with AMD’s larger cache and superior memory bandwidth, enables better handling of large datasets and multiple simultaneous threads, critical for demanding workloads.
