What some may find to be the most compelling processor option among AMD's second generation Ryzen Threadripper lineup, the Threadripper 2950X, is now available to purchase. Should you buy it, though? That depends on what you use your system for.
The Threadripper 2950X wields 16 cores and 32 threads to throw at CPU intensive workloads. It has a 3.5GHz base clock, 4.4GHz boost clock, and 32MB of L3 cache. And of course it sports all of the architectural optimizations inherent in AMD's "Zen+" microarchitecture.
