AMD's Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX, boasting an impressive 96-core configuration and robust memory support, was specifically engineered to excel in both desktop and workstation environments. It has rapidly achieved remarkable performance milestones, crossing the 100,000-point threshold in Cinebench R23 effortlessly. However, this powerhouse CPU offers even more potential with its overclocking capabilities.
Accomplished overclocker named SAMPSON, hailing from the U.S., successfully pushed all 96 Zen 4 cores of the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX to an impressive clock speed of 4.80 GHz. This achievement was accomplished on an Asus Pro WS TRX50-Sage WiFi motherboard within AMD Labs. However, it's essential to acknowledge that such a high-frequency operation demands substantial power, with the monstrous 96-core workstation CPU consuming approximately 1000W. This power consumption surpasses the tolerance level of most workstation setups, necessitating robust cooling solutions.
Under default settings, the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX operates at 2.50 GHz, with the ability to boost one of its cores to 5.10 GHz when sufficient cooling is available. Achieving a consistent 4.80 GHz frequency across all cores represents an impressive 92% overclock. This remarkable overclocking achievement has resulted in the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX setting new records across various Cinebench benchmarks:
- Cinebench R23: 4.791 GHz, scoring 161,259 Points
- Cinebench R20: 4.816 GHz, scoring 61,538 Points
- Cinebench R15: 4.875 GHz, scoring 23,697 Points
These accomplishments have catapulted the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX into the realm of 'the overclocked multi-thread performance world record,' according to AMD. It remains intriguing to explore the impact of such extensive multi-core CPU overclocking on performance across a spectrum of benchmarks.
A clock speed of 4.80 GHz on the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX was facilitated by the use of an air cooler – the substantial IceGiant ProSiphon Elite, equipped with four fans and a 1440-gram heatsink. While the efficiency of this cooling solution is impressive, one might wonder about the resulting noise levels, but it undoubtedly accomplished the task at hand.
