AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO. processor is the first & only professional workstation-caliber CPU to exploit a 7 nm silicon manufacturing process allowing engineers to double the density & fueling the transistor budget needed to substantially drive-up core throughput. With the unveiling of the first generation of Zen CPU technology AMD disrupted the status quo with a microarchitecture completely rebuilt from the ground up & optimized for modern single & multi-threaded workloads. With the Threadripper PRO processor's Zen 2 microarchitecture improvements are many but two carry most of the weight especially where high demand professional computing is concerned up to 15% faster instructions per cycle (IPC) & an impressive quadrupling of the peak floating point throughput rate. The former comes primarily by the way of enhanced branch prediction & pre-fetching supported by much deeper & broader allocation of cache while the latter is the result achieved by both doubling the width of the FPU data path & doubling density. Supporting the increased compute throughput architects doubled load-store bandwidth & dialed up dispatch & retire bandwidth to minimize the chances the higher throughput ALUs would be starved of data..
