Indian retailers PrimeABGB and MD Computers are already listing the two high-end Us, with identical MRPs of Rs. 65,488 for the Threadripper 1920X and Rs. 82,008 for the Threadripper 1950X at both stores. Judging by its US dollar price of $549, our calculations estimate that the Threadripper 1900X should come in at around Rs. 38,499 before GST and Rs. 45,500 MRP.

Threadripper is AMD's answer to Ryzen 3 Us so far this year. The launch of the Threadripper models completes AMD's top-to-bottom desktop U lineup - though more variants within each family could still be launched.

AMD is aiming Threadripper at content creators, gamers and overclockers who want the best performance without spending too much. These Us are physically much larger than mainstream ones, and use a different socket called TR4. They quad-channel DDR4 RAM and feature 64 lanes of PCIe bandwidth for high-speed components such as graphics cards and SSD arrays. They have a much higher 180W TDP rating and need specific coolers. Because the Zen architecture is common between Ryzen product families, Threadripper Us are based on the same Infinity Fabric interconnect between internal clusters called Core Complexes, and have the same benefits including XFR which boosts speed beyond the rated limits when thermal conditions allow it, and SenseMI which adjusts operating parameters dynamically using hundreds of embedded sensors.

Threadripper-compatible X399 motherboards are available from Dell is the exclusive big-brand OEM at launch time, and has already announced several Alienware Area-51 Threadripper Edition models.

It has been a busy year for AMD, which hasn't had a competitive U lineup in nearly a decade. The company has so far launched the entire Ryzen desktop U line as well as Radeon RX Vega graphics cards are set to launch over the next few weeks, and Ryzen Mobile and APU products with integrated graphics are in the pipeline as well.
