The floating point computing power of Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX is stronger than PS5 and Xbox
AMD’s Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX elevates the core count of desktop processors to an unparalleled 96 cores, consistently shattering multi-threaded desktop processor records like a veritable juggernaut of performance. In essence, it boasts a staggering FP32 floating-point computational prowess, surpassing even many household gaming systems and rivaling several mainstream GPUs.
On Github, enthusiasts have shared the GPGPU performance test results of the Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX. This 96-core, 192-thread behemoth, endowed with 384MB of L3 cache, can ramp up to a peak frequency of 5.35GHz. In the AIDA64 GPGPU test, its FP32 single-precision floating-point computational capability reached 12.16TFLOPs, while its FP64 double-precision achieved 6.07TFLOPs. By comparison, the Core i9-13900K stands at 2.5TFLOPs for FP32, making the Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX an astonishing quintuple of its performance.
The ensuing comparison is even more captivating. Sony’s PS5 touts a peak floating-point capability of 10.29TFLOPs, while Microsoft’s Xbox Series X offers a commendable 12.15 TFLOPs. The single-precision floating-point prowess of the Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX eclipses both. Meanwhile, the ever-popular RTX 3060 graphics card, a favorite on Steam, features a floating-point capability of 12.7TFLOPs, placing the Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX almost neck and neck with it.
In reality, as early as 2020, AMD showcased the capabilities of the Ryzen Threadripper 3990X by running ‘Crysis’. These ultra-high-core-count processors can indeed render game graphics solely via the CPU. Yet, in most scenarios, this might be superfluous. Such demonstrations merely underscore the sheer potency of the processor at hand.
