Not many people need a 96-core processor. But for creative professionals, engineers and AI developers who do, AMD has a new batch of chips on display at Computex 2025. The company announced its new Ryzen Threadripper 9000 series on Tuesday, with bonkers specs to power pro-level workstations and ultra-high-end prosumer desktops.
At the top of the line in the series is the AMD Threadripper Pro 9995WX. This chip has a staggering 96 cores and 192 threads, matching the highest-end model from 2023's Threadripper Pro 7000 line. But the new 9000 series tops out with a higher maximum boost speed of 5.4GHz. That's up from 5.1GHz in the premiere 7000 Pro chip.
