The chip that AMD is billing as the "world's most powerful desktop processor," the Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX, is now available and shipping to customers.

AMD's claim that the 2990WX is tops in the high-end desktop (HEDT) market is based in part on its high core and thread counts. It has 32 cores and 64 threads to throw at workloads, and is 53 percent faster in multi-threaded tasks than Intel's flagship Core i9-7980XE, according to AMD. It also delivers 47 percent more rendering performance than Intel's top desktop chip, AMD says.
