Technical Analysis
Detailed breakdown of Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX specifications and capabilities.
Processing Power
The Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX is a 96-core / 192-thread processor based on the Storm Peak (2023) architecture, manufactured on a 5 nm process node. It reaches a maximum boost clock of 5.1 GHz from a base frequency of 2.5 GHz— higher boost clocks directly translate to better single-threaded performance and responsiveness in gaming. With a massive 384 MB (total) L3 cache (3D V-Cache technology), this processor has a significant gaming advantage — the large cache drastically reduces memory latency in game engines., plus 1 MB (per core) of L2 cache and 64 kB (per core) of L1 cache per core. In the PassMark benchmark (a comprehensive multi-threaded test), it scores 143,017, placing it in the Enthusiast performance tier as a Recent generation product. Geekbench 6 single-core (the most relevant metric for gaming FPS) records 2,100, while multi-core reaches 81,000. Cinebench R23 multi-core (measuring sustained rendering workload performance) scores 148,000.
