AMD Drops Third-Gen Monster Threadripper CPU From Latest Roadmap

Both the original Threadripper and Threadripper 2nd Generation launched in August of 2017 and 2018, respectively. We were fairly sure that AMD is going to follow the same general release schedule this time around, but, obviously we don’t know that for sure. AMD CEO Lisa Su has hinted that she would “provide new details about the next generation of high-performance AMD platforms and products” at Computex 2019. We’re not sure that includes Threadripper 3rd Generation chips, as AMD’s HEDT chips typically release after the consumer focused chips. However, if Threadripper is a no-show at Computex, you can put your money on an IFA 2019 appearance.

Ryzen 3000 has been one of AMD’s most anticipated products. AMD’s new chips are expected to launch by the third quarter of the year, or perhaps late in the second quarter (around Computex). But we aren’t certain about the release for the high end desktop Threadripper processors because AMD has removed these CPUs from its roadmap that it shared during the company’s Q1 earnings report. Where Ryzen 3000 and Threadripper 3000 previously stood alongside each other, there is now only Ryzen 3000 with the statement “mid-year.”
