Something like this is obviously going to make more sense to upsell in a prebuilt bc it won’t game any faster than single X3D CCD, but I’d be very surprised if it is OEM only bc some enthusiast will drop 1k on one of these.
Which workstation use case will make use of that but not warranty more memory channels in a threadripper? It’s interesting they don’t even make a zen 5 epyc with x3d (no Turin-X) this gen.
The cross CCD latency is surely a factor, but it’s definitely not massive. And the immense cache can also mean that threads can stay longer in the same CCD.
Maybe this can finally hit 100+ FPS and 60 0.1% FPS in Microsoft Flighht Simulator? 5090 + 9950X3D is around 90 average FPS and 50 0.1% FPS in 4k Native DLAA. /s
The executives of all of these companies, AMD very much included, are foaming at the mouth from the "AI" virus. They cannot make rational decisions about anything that doesn't directly contribute to milking that bubble.
I think it is more likely they made an error creating the page. There was no CES announcement on it and no other credible source. This sounds very much like the Intel B770 type news which god knows when that will show up if at all.
Other news sites now say that it was not correct ant that Alienware was talking about the 9850X3D and not the 9950X3D2. For now it still looks like it is not going to be a real CPU.

The Sytronix one (i.e. workstation use) makes a lot more sense.

Potentially less stuttering in games with more cores for on the fly shader compilation
Also less time pre compiling shaders
I doubt it will affect anything due to massive cross ccd latency anyways.

And the difference with the 8 core model being…? That also has the same number of cores and same amount of cache per CCD.
The cross ccd latency isn't any worse with X3D2 against X3D.
But also not any better. Best case scenario will be turning off one CCD
It isn’t. That’s why said it “won’t game any faster” as in it will be the same. Not slower. I did NOT in any way imply it will be any worse.

Does msfs2024 use all 16 cores?
CES would've been the perfect time to tease this, rather than the business- and corporate-oriented announcements AMD gave us.

Sytronix also lists it in their upcoming workstation system, which makes a lot of sense for certain workloads.
Link?
It's also in the OP
