Crazy Efficient: AMD Threadripper 7980X & 7970X CPU Review & Benchmarks

This is one of the densest CPU reviews we’ve published, and we have an immediate follow-up with a livestream LATER TODAY to show the 96-core 7995WX CPU breaking world records. We re-tested the old Threadripper 3970X and 3960X to include on these charts, but skipped the 5000-series PRO CPUs (as they were not HEDT parts). If we look into doing a review on any 7000 PRO CPUs, we’ll consider adding Xeon and 5000 PRO CPUs to the suite. Error/correction - There is a typo in some charts where the 3960X’s name is next to an erroneous thread count. This does not affect testing or results. Our apologies for the error. Correct count is 24C
