AMD's Ryzen Threadripper 7995WX CPU is a beast of a chip, breaking multi-threaded performance records but it also has surprisingly high FP32 compute capabilities which are on par with some of the most popular GPUs on the market and faster than the latest gaming consoles.
The AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO offers 96 cores, 192 threads, 384 MB of L3 cache, and has clock speeds rated at up to 5.15 GHz within a 350W TDP package. While the chip is designed for high-end workstations and desktop PCs, it looks like the chip may also offer some decent software emulation capabilities directly off the CPU.
In performance metrics of the chip shared over at Github (via @InstLatX64), we can see that the chip offers up to 12.16 TFLOPs of FP32 (Single-Precision) and 6.0 TFLOPs of FP64 (Double-Precision) Compute performance within the AIDA64 GPGPU benchmark. The benchmark uses a native x64 machine code and should not be compared to the GPU benchmarks which use the OpenCL API & are only meant for comparative studies. An Intel Core i9-13900K CPU offers around 2.5 TFLOPs of FP32 performance so you are getting almost 5x the improvement with the Threadripper 7995WX.
But let's switch over to the more fun part which is a comparison with the current-gen gaming consoles from Microsoft and Sony. The PlayStation 5 offers a peak FP32 compute of 10.29 TFLOPs while the Xbox Series X offers up to 12.15 TFLOPs of compute. The AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX CPU not only sits ahead of both gaming consoles in terms of raw TFLOPs but is almost on par with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 (12.7 TFLOPs), the most popular GPU on Steam's Hardware Survey.
This is some seriously impressive stuff and with the amount of compute power that the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX CPU is able to dish out, we might just see it run Crysis off the CPU alone in the near future. One thing these benchmarks have made it clear is that there's no other CPU in the industry that matches the prowess and capabilities of the 7995WX and the Zen 4-powered Ryzen Threadripper 7000 CPUs in general. These chips are the ultimate solution for content creation, AI, rendering, and any form of multi-threading tasks.
