AMD Threadripper 7970X 5.3Ghz Socket sTR5 Tray

Cores and performance

• 32 Zen 4 cores and 64 threads with SMT, 4.0 GHz base frequency and maximum boost up to 5.3 GHz for class-leading multi-core performance.

• Massive cache: 2 MB L1, 32 MB L2 and 128 MB L3 shared, reducing latencies in parallel intensive workloads.

• IPC up to 13% higher than Zen 3 and ~17% higher frequencies than Threadripper 5000, with supercharged Precision Boost.

Platform and connectivity

• sTR5 (SP5) socket for TRX50 motherboards, with 92 PCIe 5.0 lanes (48 from CPU + chipset), ideal for multiple NVIDIA/AMD GPUs, NVMe RAID SSDs and 100Gbe networking.

• Quad-channel DDR5-5200 ECC memory controller (up to 7800+ MHz OC with AMD EXPO), maximum capacity 1TB RDIMM for huge datasets.

• 6nm I/O die with AVX-512 support, bfloat16 for AI and chipset-integrated USB4.

Efficiency and thermal

• High TDP of 350W, requires high-end custom cooling (AIO 360mm+, custom loop or direct contact); Tray version without heatsink.

• Manufactured in 5nm (CCD) + 6nm (IOD) by TSMC, ~18.7 billion transistors; operating temperatures up to 95°C with intelligent throttling.
