Before the launch of Ryzen 7000, AMD has slipped in one more Zen 3 product launch. Or at least, they are finally letting consumers buy it. The AMD Threadripper Pro 5995WX is a beast of a CPU that likely has Intel quaking in their boots. But with a massive price leap and the death of the non-pro lineup of Threadripper CPUs, has AMD turned to the greedy dark side? Of course they have, they’re a corporation.

We got our 512gb ram 5995wx machine up and running a week and a half ago. Huge time savings for us, processes our 3D laser scans in 1 scan per 6 Seconds. The pcie lanes support is huge for us.
For our applications there are totally viable cases to use Ryzen 7000/i9 12900ks systems but the 128gb RAM and pcie lanes support limitations reduce the maximum project size we can effectively work on with those systems. The 64 core 512gb and 7 full bandwidth pcie 16 slots allow us to tackle enormous projects without slowing down. The pricing breakdown is totally justified here as when you price things out linearly you end up coming out quite a ways ahead over multiple smaller systems, even without the project size limitations.
What kind of scans are you taking?

I think the lack of substantial improvement in Adobe product based workbenches has less to do with the chip and more to do with the legacy, patchwork framework that Adobe is still carrying on, especially in Premiere. Maybe try a comparison in Da Vinci or some other more modern framework where a ground up effort has been put to juice out every available core.
Adobe software runs a lot like a game with a single mainthread that calls every asynchronous task (additional thread). Many parts of the code are still synchronous and will hold up the main thread and make their software at BEST lightly threaded. It's really just hot garbage with a familiar UI and a stranglehold on the market due to being one of the first.
It's still an important test. Ultimately you don't buy a more powerful computer to run benchmarks better, you buy it to get your work done better. If the tool of your trade is Adobe then how much better that runs is what matters to you. It may also be time to change tools if another one can do the job better.

I love seeing massively over-the-top rigs like this that are used for a very specific tasks.
I sincerely miss SGI's workstations. Those were actually, TRUELY worth the money. UNIX, baby. I still hope to own an Indigo someday, of which I intend to actually use daily.
I have my doubts as to if you can even measure Threadrippers performance the standard way, that is with normal benchmarks. I'm also VERY interested how in performs in engineering fields where FEMs are abused to death. Interestingly enough, some form of FEM calculations could be a great benchmark for CPUs too. Encryption might be another field. It feels like benchmarks used in testing are pretty narrow and always come around to neighbourhood of computer graphics and 3D design.
What is FEM?
@@myselfremade Finite Element Methods, which are numerical algorithms with many variants (Continuous and Discontinuous Galerkin to name a few), that are used to solve partial differential equations in fluid mechanics (elliptic pdes) and in other fields like physics and engineering.
@@myselfremade finite element method. It is a technique where you approximate continuous functions like airflow over an object by dividing everything into small cells, the finite elements (finite because they have a finite size instead of being infinitesimal as they ideally should be), and then you use an update function to propagate a discrete (stepped) version of your function through the cells. This is basically how almost very modern physics simulation is done.
Obviously the smaller your cells, the more accurate the result (usually) but also the compute complexity usually explodes. So having more performance allows you to run rough simulations quicker, meaning less idle time, and it allows you to run more accurate simulations at all.
If I could I would send them some files from my job. I wish I could see how fast a threadripper like this could run some of my sims. Because depending on how fast it is I probably could convince my boss to spend that money.
@@jakobwest4811 I've got my disgusting python code from my undergrad thesis on a benchmark method of solving a particular elliptic convection diffusion pde using continuous Galerkin fem I could send them
Compiling Unreal from scratch (and letting it compile the shaders as well when first opening it up) is a good benchmark imho of "how useful it can be for a professional".
I upgraded once from an i7-4790k to my current 3990x as I was doing a lot of freelance work remotely and I did cut my wait time for compilation drastically in many instances. (from 2h to 10-15 mins and from a pc that I couldn't even watch videos in the meantime to now being able to watch something on the side to wait)
Honestly, the TR line-up, even at "enthusiast" level was never meant for gamers but I feel like it's useful for some freelancers that can't afford to throw down close to 20k$ in a machine.
But again, it so depends on the daily workload you work with... :)
It’s amazing how slowly I’ve gotten to a point where I watch (and want to watch) every Linus media group video.

@@lucidnonsense942 You're very generous with a millisecond in HFT. 😄 In that field, a microsecond is an eternity.
True, but those calculations are running in server farms across the street from the NYSE, not on your analyst's desk.
No you can't because LTT is the usual 'we don't actually know anything about professional computer users', or maybe actively pandering to AMD - the i9 isn't Intel's pro line.
Threadripper Pro is *extremely* competitive for certain applications against Intel's pro offerings, and if you're e.g. a trade-from-home type with only one PC, then its super compelling.
@@lucidnonsense942 True - especially the last part, since they actually do sell all the chips (rather: chiplets) they can make. I'd wager that the absence of a Zen3 TR non-pro is not a business decision as Linus sees it but the result of practically all Zen3 chiplets being used up by the existing lineup. That's a business decision alright, but of the "what to to with limited supply" kind.
I really respect the editors notes in the subtitles. Yet another example of LMG's outstanding production quality, but more importantly research of *both* the writers and the editors. Bravo.
Idk, if they really cared they woul put in seperate, real subs for the whole video
@@kkon5ti my point was more on the point that the editors catch mistakes of the writing team / presenters (as no one is perfect).
Its more like thw6 dont put to much effort on searching and then watch the video to see if they did good or need to put the notes(corrections :c) in the video :v
The real problem is they probably filmed this a month or two ago, by then new information on the AMD is already out. Timeliness in tech is important when the technology changes so quickly.
Even their own screwdriver out for that time. Makes me wonder, what has delayed this video that much.
I agree, having support many in my time.. Nothing makes an engineer happier than a speedy beast of a workstation. And you say waiting for 10 minutes.. waiting on that render or computation for 10 minutes to complete also probably means adding an extra 10 or so that they stay extra playing table tennis or whatever else 🙂
Can confirm it's aimed at business. Signing off anything sub $50k for hardware is very easy, so a $6.5k CPU is just a no brainer
Now that you have a fully fledged engineering department, I'd love to see some sort of content on the optimal CAD/CAE machines. I use Ansys Mechanical/Fluent/LS-Dyna for simulation all day everyday, and it's frankly a ballache to determine what is the best way to spend money on hardware, or if it's even worth it with the cloud compute options that are available. For example, Ansys Mechanical supposedly benefits greatly from memory bandwidth, and thus recommends Epyc due to its octa-channel memory capabilities, but would this Threadripper also provide benefit in higher clocks for less money
It's also worth mentioning that all simulation/high-end engineering software packages require HPC licenses to use this many cores i.e., £50k+ per seat (perpetual) for 64 cores.
This is not relevant to the video but may I ask how much storage do I need for a m.2 boot drive and what kind of programs should I install on it beside web browser, anti-virus,...?

You know it's a good product when the community starts arguing about whether the benchmarks are sophisticated enough to meaningfully measure it's performance capabilities. If you've gotta start measuring things in a whole new way just to do it justice it's definitely moved the game along.
I'm really glad for you linus. You've done alot of great things for yourself.
I'm glad you start talking about the bussiness side of tech on this channel. Very useful for future engineers watching this. Hardware is cheap, Time is expensive.
Also, List price for hardware is very negotiable, perhaps not for LTT but surely for larger corps :).

I have a 3955 with a 3090 in my desktop. It's good enough at playing games, but it's literally amazing for office tasks. Applying a MLA to a dataset and outputting as a Visio flow is almost instant, which is basically impossible to do on my high end business laptop. Identifying process flows from use data is an amazing tool, and a single map could save a company millions of dollars, and his computer is the difference between me charging $50 an hour or $200 an hour. I'm really excited for these chips to hit the consumer market.

This Episode Exploded My Head. In The End I Was Speechless. And All I Can Say LTT You Have Opened My Eyes.
Back when I was a self-employed Graphics Artist Professional and I was building websites using Dreamweaver and Photoshop, time was money. In fact, it was so much so that I would build custom machines with enough RAM that I could create a RAM DISK where I would load Windows, DreamWeaver and Photoshop into RAM. (I also used RAID 10, dual GPU's and cooled it using an independent window AC unit.) It took about 10 minutes for my machine to boot up, but that was perfect to get a muffin and some coffee. For the rest of the day, even the most intensive tasks were completed in seconds. This level of responsiveness paid for itself quickly and made the work easy and fun - waiting is energy-sucking.
AMD : I heard you like cores, so we put cores on your cores
I think you guys should start compiling Unreal Engine 5 instead of Firefox, I went up to 72 logicas cores getting ~linear time scaling.
7:03, the fact that Linus believes Apple will update the Mac Pro with anything but Apple Sillicon is laughable, great vid in all other regards!!
Love the animation on the graphs so you can see what is being talked about
I want videos to keep coming out where Linus says the screwdrivers are 'coming soon,' implying an absolutely enormous backlog of like months and months of videos. Maybe even a gag where it's got something that clearly happened after the screwdrivers came out, like someone's watching Andor in the background as he says, "Screwdrivers should be soon, guys!"
It's crazy to me that Gigabytes worth of cache is coming closer and closer in the server space
I suspect that the next major step will be in some special purpose hardware rather than in the main CPU path. Things like AI could really benefit from a lot of parallel low resolution computations. Scientific computing often wants an FFT done on a whole mess of data.
Tricep flex on 6:08 was peak! Lukin good linus!!!
I have a similar experience about CPUs performing similarly to the GPU at 3:04, rendering in Arnold with a 5900X and a 1660Ti, they perform about the same, if not better, on the 5900X. Less passes and slightly less time needed.
What kind of sick person pairs a 1660Ti with a 5900X?
@@jsVfPe3 garbage pairing huh i have a 5900x but i paired it with something more reasonable. (6800xt) beasst for 1440p gaming got it hooked up to the asus pg279qm 1440p 240hz :)
My R7 2700 also renders at about the same speed as my GTX 770 in Blender Cycles, so... But I think he means that in the way it's a 3090. He's ignoring the part the CPU costs a lot more and that the 3090 won't be able to render anything that takes more than its VRAM can hold (something I suffer with so so much so...). Oh, how much I want GPUs with upgradable VRAM, specially when Nvidia is drip feeding the VRAM sizes on the consumer cards this dirty. I would be okay with even as low as 2060 performance if that meant having upwards of 48 GB to use.
@@jsVfPe3 I paired my 3900X with a rx570, because gaming comes after compile times. It was tough tho.
@@jsVfPe3 computers are not only for gaming, ya know
The Zen4 chips have more than enough compute for me, but not enough PCIe lanes. I want to be able to put a graphics card from each of the major GPU vendors in my machine and there just aren't enough lanes for that.
The AEC firm I work for has 3 5965WX systems on order (128GB RAM, RTX A5000), not top spec systems so “only” about $10k a piece. Will be used for CPU VRay rendering through 3DS Max, Leica Cyclone/3DR, and some Tableau and ArcGIS Pro. They’ll replace some old 9900K based systems so should blow the doors off what we have now, I’m stoked to try them out.
My family's on a farm, and I feel like getting an LTT screwdriver is similar to getting high speed internet - constantly led on by the phrase "should be available very soon!"
The refurb market (even on Amazon) is a ripe one for server nerds and it might make for some interesting content.
Consider that you can get a refurbed 1u system with 64gb ram + 2x Xeon e5-2670 (total of 16 core/32 thread), and 2x512gb SAS drives for $200 USD.

And then buy a new PCIe 5.0 AMD PC lol
I can't imagine how AMD Genoa-X would be like 😵💫🤯
Would be interesting to see the results if someone could benchmark Mixed Integer Programs on this.
I am building a high performance multithreaded Java application doing fintech and would love to get my hands on one of these. When markets are moving, you want as many threads crunching numbers for you.
I could asbolutely use this at work. I run full 3D EM (electromagnetic) sims and FEM for a living and I bet this would really help. I use an older Xeon and 128GB of RAM in my daily workstation right now, but commonly use our networked machines with 128 cores and 2TB ram. I really wish I could send you guys some HFSS or AWR files to test on rather than Blender or 7zip.
This is what they're missing I think. It's been a hown a bunch of times that only a handful of content workloads benefit from these things, but I've heard from people in other industries saying they absolutely slay.
STH comes closest I feel to being able to properly benchmark these, aside from L1 techs on Dev workflow stuff, but it's till hard to get a clear vision of where they make the most sense.

Would LOVE to see you build the ULTIMATE water-cooling PC, using a Cooler Master HAF 700 EVO with FOUR 420mm radiators at the SAME TIME, as a single water loop, with water cooling blocks on the: CPU, GPU, M.2 drive and on the RAM! This would be the ultimate dream setup for next gen hardware (like the intel 13th gen CPU, RTX4090ti, PCIe gen 5 M.2 drive and even hot DDR5 RAM). With full RGB it would also probably be the best-looking PC setup ever!
I am planning on this setup myself (to ensure I never suffer from thermal throttling, and to allow me to stably overclock as much as I want), but I am nervous as I never done a custom water loop before, so I, & I am sure many others who have saved ready to build a new top of the range setup with the release of the next gen hardware, would really appreciate it if you could do this as a step by step tutorial. Thanks. :)
RTX4090ti doesn't even exist yet you know that right?
@Eden of the East yes I know; I thought I made it clear that my point was new & upcoming hardware is just going to keep getting hotter & hotter, requiring larger & larger heatsinks & fans, OR peoplecould wake up to the common sense solutionof water cooling. Sorry if I was unclear. :)
So, I work at a AAA game development studio. We're in the process of switching people to Threadripper PROs (not this one). It's saving us time on our recompiles and map building. It's more than enough to cover the cost, especially considering I had just gotten a new computer already this year.
Used to work in an HPC (high performance computing) environment in the pharma industry. Money for them matters little. I remember when covid started we couldn't get cpus so we ended up having to rent HPC servers in aws, OCI, GCP etc. Some times we would get bills o er 20k a day

Youre not their demographic then.
The problem is even at this price they can't make them fast enough. There's a huge backlog of orders for TR Pro, so why would they cannibalize that market to make a lower end SKU?
I could see it if they had another fab capacity to saturate that market and then some, but it's a bit more nuanced than they just want more money.
If you don't know about it, you're not their target demographic and weren't ever going to buy it anyway. And AMD doesn't need to do any marketing at all for these, they sell like hotcakes anyway

I would very much like to see a new line of "enthusiast grade" chips on a modern DDR5 platform. I'm still hanging onto my 6950x since there's no real reason to upgrade, and I get that these new CPUs are more powerful than anything on the X99 or even X299 platform, but from an enthusiast perspective, something that supports quad channel memory and a whack-ton of SATA/ PCI-E expansion on a modern architecture would be very cool to see. Don't get me wrong, I'm thrilled with how far CPUs have come since X99, and I'm very excited for the upcoming Ryzen 7000/ Raptor Lake launches, but I miss the days of having a more feature rich platform to go alongside the consumer grade ones, not counting the server/ enterprise level stuff. Seeing consumer Threadripper get canned was very disheartening.

@@s.i.m.c.a When I say new, I mean relative to enthusiast platforms. The last consumer grade Threadripper was released on DDR4, and it's the same story with X299

There should be a Core Grouping feature that groups all of these cores to 32 threads so that it can also rip in single core
There is SOME grouping in the speed of getting the cached data from the same chiplet vs a different chiplet.

In these days of high energy prices there are not many who only can dream of this. It becomes just watching new tech.
I wish my company understood the long term costs of giving their engineers slow computers. I had to wait six months to get an extra stick of RAM for my previous workstation so that it could run all the corporate spyware without having to swap everything to the pagefile on the spinning hard disk. They easily spent 5 figures on me sitting waiting for things to become responsive in that time, and I was far from the only one in that boat.
This. Our development teams have largely become an Intel wasteland in favour of Apple, because for what we do the M1 slays the shit corporate laptops the business buys.
The IT guy lamented to me the other day as we picked up yet another M1 Mac for a Dev, I said to him the minute we get a Ryzen 7 or 12th gen performance oriented laptop for engineers I'll be right back on that bandwagon.
There are a couple of contractors in the team that have the current Dell alternative and the amount of time they spend waiting to be able to run compiles, multiple docker containers for DBs and servers, 100 chrome tabs, etc. They sound like they're taking off, while the M1 rips through most of it AND gets legit all day battery life.

My favorite part of this was actually learning about Gramerly (the sponsor spot at very end).
I can sometimes spend close to an hour editing and re editing 50 times an important email before sending it, because i try to make it as concise and clear as possible. I'm going to try it out.
Thanks Linus!
Yes, I want this.
For which Tasks do you need this Power?

Four times the threads, but only 2.5x the performance of the Intel chip that costs 1/15th of the price.
Just pointing that out.
i got a ltt ad before the video and linus tricked me into watching it like it was the intro to this video.
After watching this video, I somehow got reminded of AMD and Nvidia GPU launch and how their GPUs only start selling after a month or so after the event. It would be so good if every GPU is released at the same time and is available just a week after their event or maybe even days.
While I am AMD fan, I am impressed by intels top consumer tech being just a factor 4 slower than the best performing extreme die size server cpu on the market.
That's... not something to be impressed by
Intel is faster per core. That could matter more. Not all jobs can be shared to lots of cores.
I have an older Ryzen 7 3700X system, with a small overclock on it so that it runs rock stable at 4.06 ghz on all cores and that's fine by me because I've only ever managed to push the cpu while gaming without closing down browsers with multiple tabs open, and a ton of other active program. In such insane moments I occasionally see the cpu go above 70% usage except for the occasional single thread spike that bottoms out while something takes a turn at it in the background. It's insane, so why would I need more, except as bragging rights?
The cpu does what I need it to in abundance, I would like a more powerful gpu, but that will have to wait due to market prices and such bullshit stabilizes. I've found that I'm actually really happy about the choice of cpu, for the first time in a long while.
Oh, sure I can bottom out the cpu by doing transcoding or video encoding, but even now with 3 browsers running and all of them used more than 10 tabs, several background apps running, a video on pause since I'm watching this video, two audiobooks on pause and a few ebooks just because I like to read and the danged cpu is puttering along at 2% use. What I have up now is my everyday run while I'm goofing about online or relaxing.
Memory though and ram is lacking even with a 32 GB setup, but who could have figured my need changing this much, eh?
Love to see such insane tech as you show in the video, it makes it more fun to wait and see what the new launches are going to offer us, it might be lies or it might be cool or even drool worthy, we will know by next month and your video makes the wait easier. Thanks

Linus : "Let's talk about who and why and about our sponsor...... "
Me : give this guy a medal for that
LTT's sponsor segways are just the best!
Well, if I win the lottery I'll buy one to edit my CZcams videos on how to waste your money as a lottery winner. If I'm lucky my CZcams will stave off bankruptcy for a few extra years.
This machine is made for calculating mold flow simulation? Nice follow up after the LTT screwdriver video at the injection molding machine!
Me who using my pc to browsing the net and making notes...yes it's absolutely needed 😁
I have watched this man's videos enough to recognize a segue to his sponsor coming a few seconds ahead.
Those clock reductions with many cores in use, oof. As ridiculously expensive as these things are, and being that the customers are almost exclusively businesses that have to justify every cent, I'm surprised CPU manufacturers haven't made more of an effort to optimize for *actually properly cooled* use cases to keep those clocks high. Performance is likely about halved vs its theoretical potential (even assuming they can "only" reach 4.5 ghz across all cores), so as long as the cost of a suitable cooler and power delivery is less than a second CPU (and second entire system to put it in...), that should come out ahead financially.
yeah i wish reviewers would show thermal throttling as part of the comparison
To be fair, that 2.7ghz clock is likely a worst-case scenario, with all cores being hit hard, AVX on, and a cooler without massive headroom. You'll probably get better clock speeds than that most of the time
They'd need liquid nitrogen, at 4.5ghz it's pulling 400w and that's not on all core? The heat is too much for most coolers, and not because of radiator limits but the block transfer and IHS. Direct die would help, but pushing much further isn't gonna be "properly cooled" no matter what, unless you are talking single core boost I suppose. As far as I can tell, I don't have a chip on hand myself. It's already pushing the limit, the difference is just how you want to when OCing it seems.
They have started doing that for some EPYC being used in water cooled datacenter applications, but I don't think they're off the shelf SKUs
They actually are optimized, and designed to scale with cooling capacity. That's what PBO offers. At some point you'd be expecting too much from 64 cores in a single socket.
Should probably point out some of the Epyc chips are workload optimized, the 7763 is optimized for anlytics, erm/scm and high density vm's
I looked at this, but I don't plan to move to threadripper until it's on the Zen4 platform. The 5995WX is way more than I need, but it's neat.
