With such a deep list of performance and security features, it's easy to see why Threadripper PRO processors have taken the high-end desktop PC and workstation world by storm. Whether you're a number cruncher, a creative artist or work in some other profession, Threadripper PRO processors deliver outstanding computational power and security features that help you save time, stay productive and produce results.

Who uses AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO processors?

AMD hit the market with four distinct versions of AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ PRO processors with varying core and thread counts to serve a variety of businesses and users. To ensure support for everyone, Lenovo launched multiple models of the ThinkStation P620 Tower Workstation, each sporting a different Threadripper PRO CPU.

Ryzen Threadripper PRO processors are purpose-built to support all types of workstation users and the mission-critical software applications they rely on each day. Which one is for you? Let's take a look:

• Architecture: AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 3995WX processors can help accelerate typical architectural workflows such as editing point clouds, rendering designs, and creating virtual simulations.¹ Their fast cycle times, for example, can boost productivity on lightly threaded 3D modeling jobs, while the high core count can mean faster rendering output.²

  For architecture workloads, AMD recommends:

  Processor	Cores	Max Boost Clock3	Max Memory
  AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ PRO 3995WX	64	Up to 4.2 GHz	Up to 2 TB
  AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ PRO 3955WX	16	Up to 4.3 GHz	Up to 2 TB
  AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ PRO 3945WX	12	Up to 4.3 GHz	Up to 2 TB

• Manufacturing: For busy engineers, the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 3995WX processor can reduce simulation¹ and render times² to get more things done. Slicer software for 3D printing, for example, is multi-threaded and benefits from having multiple available cores. Design modeling uses fewer cores but gains from the CPU's fast cycle times.

  For manufacturing workloads, AMD recommends:

  Processor	Cores	Max Boost Clock3	Max Memory
  AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ PRO 3995WX	64	Up to 4.2 GHz	Up to 2 TB
  AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ PRO 3945WX	12	Up to 4.3 GHz	Up to 2 TB

• Multimedia: Animators, artists and editors who generate multiple project iterations each day will love the speedy way the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 3995WX processor handles complex rendering and VFX workloads. Accelerate post-production encoding and transcoding⁴ even at high resolutions.

  For multimedia workloads, AMD recommends:

  Processor	Cores	Max Boost Clock3	Max Memory
  AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ PRO 3995WX	64	Up to 4.2 GHz	Up to 2 TB
  AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ PRO 3955WX	16	Up to 4.3 GHz	Up to 2 TB

• Software & Science: The Threadripper PRO 3995WX processor can significantly reduce compile times for complex software builds by spreading the work over multiple threads and cores.⁵ The same parallel processing approach can speed the training of deep neural networks, while support for up to 2 TB of memory aids in calculations involving extensive data sets.

  For software and science workloads, AMD recommends:

  Processor	Cores	Max Boost Clock3	Max Memory
  AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ PRO 3995WX	64	Up to 4.2 GHz	Up to 2 TB
