The AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5975WX is a desktop workstation processor for professionals building systems for demanding creative, engineering and development work. Its 32 cores and 64 threads suit workloads such as rendering, complex design and simulation, and software compilation where substantial parallel processing can help keep work moving.

Built on AMD’s Zen 3 architecture, it combines a 3.6GHz base frequency with boost speeds up to 4.5GHz. The processor has 128MB of L3 cache and a 280W thermal design power. Threadripper PRO 5000 WX-Series processors also provide 128 PCIe 4.0 lanes, giving a compatible workstation scope for multiple graphics and storage devices. This 5975WX is designed for workloads that can make use of many processing threads, while its high boost frequency also supports tasks that rely on faster individual cores.

Key features

• 32 CPU cores and 64 threads for heavily threaded workstation applications.
• Zen 3 architecture for professional computing workloads.
• Base frequency of 3.6GHz and boost frequency up to 4.5GHz.
• 128MB of L3 cache for frequently accessed data.
• 128 PCIe 4.0 lanes for expansion with compatible workstation components.
• Eight memory channels for supported DDR4 memory configurations.

Compatibility

This processor uses the SP3 socket and is intended for a compatible workstation motherboard. Check the motherboard’s processor support and BIOS requirements before fitting it. The listed memory type is DDR4, with system memory speeds up to 3200 MT/s. A thermal solution is not included, so arrange compatible cooling separately and ensure the system is designed to handle the processor’s 280W TDP. Good to know: a suitable motherboard and CPU cooler are required and are not included with the processor.
