As of this morning, AMD has outlined all of its upcoming Gen 2 Threadripper CPUs. As reviewers, we were supplied a single 2990WX, and single 2950X CPUs. However there are 2970WX, and 2920X model parts on the way. The 2970WX MSRP will be $1300, and the 2920X will be $650. The 2970WX will be a 24C/48T part while the 2920X will be a 12C/24T part. Both of these parts are slated for retail availability in October.
