ASRock Ditches Intel Ethernet, Cuts Price of Threadripper Pro Motherboard by $356

Established in 2002 and specializing in motherboards, ASRock Inc. ASRock works hard to establish its own brand. The company examines the limits of motherboard manufacturing while paying attention to the environmental issue at the same time and designing goods with the consideration of an eco-friendly concept using the 3C design concept, “Creativity, Consideration, Cost-effectiveness. With its headquarters in Taipei, Taiwan, ASRock has been expanding quickly and is now the third-largest motherboard brand in the world. 

ASRock recently ditches intel ethernet and The new 5Gb/s network standard was created primarily to satisfy users looking for quick performance boosts. This motherboard, which is based on AQUANTIA’s ACtionTM client controller, provides blisteringly fast 5-gigabit/sec transfer speed over 100m of Cat5e/Cat6 cable, which is 5X faster than standard gigabit LAN. It is also fully compatible with 5Gb/s, 2.5Gb/s, and Gigabit Lan, making it the ideal choice for media centers, workstations, and gaming PCs.

The ASRock features a further outside base clock source that enables PCIe frequency overclocking. It offers a wider range of frequencies and more accurate clock waveforms, enabling any user to overclock their CPU with accuracy and stability to get the most out of their investment. This enables the users to reach a high overclocking speed of 136MHz which was previously only rooted at 100MHz making this the perfect choice for gaming and workstation pcs.

The B660/H610M-ITX/eDP motherboard from ASRock introduces a completely new concept in personalization by enabling an actual monitor panel to be mounted on the side of the computer chassis. ASRock is now collaborating closely with chassis manufacturers like Cooler Master, InWin, Thermaltake, and Silver Stone to make this ground-breaking concept a reality. This opens up a world of possibilities for customizing your own PC. 

AMD has cut the price of the thread ripper pro motherboard to 356$. For its large multi-die processors, AMD has primarily targeted the server sector. Since the debut of Milan nearly exactly one year ago, the majority of CPUs that may become Threadripper parts have been moving to servers due to the extraordinarily high demand for Epyc Milan CPUs.How could you blame AMD for this? It’s a deliberate commercial choice. 

The business has long desired to wrest part of Intel’s lucrative server market share from them, and they have now succeeded in doing so. In the server industry, a top-of-the-line 64-core Epyc CPU costs over $7,000 compared to the last generation Threadripper 3990X’s $4,000 price. The other obstacle is competition: Intel just lacks the components necessary to compete with the Threadripper line now based on Zen 2, let alone a Zen 3 model. As compared to Cascade Lake, which wasn’t competitive when it launched in 2019.

The new product range is exactly what you would anticipate. The Threadripper 5000 uses the same chiplet and I/O die design, with up to eight 7nm CPU chiplets surrounding a massive 14nm I/O die in the core. However, the transition to Zen 3 brings us all the typical advantages, such as a unified single CCX with all eight cores able to access the 32MB of L3 with ease, in place of Zen 2 chiplets with two CCXes within and a split L3 cache architecture.

We are unable to determine how much of an improvement we will experience gen-on-gen because AMD did not share any direct comparisons between the Thread Ripper Pro 5000 series and the preceding 3000 series. As a result of Zen 3’s IPC advantage, Epyc Milan server chip reviews have demonstrated substantial performance benefits. Instead, AMD’s performance information only compares the Thread Ripper Pro 5000 to Intel’s Ice Lake workstation CPUs, the Xeon W-3300 series. In many important workstation and productivity applications.

The price reductions for Ryzen 5000 parts that have begun to surface at major shops are also important to talk about. However, this hasn’t stopped merchants from raising the costs of AMD CPUs to better reflect the state of the market, where Intel CPUs are frequently more cost-effective, particularly in the middle and lower price ranges. These price reductions might be a result of “unofficial” AMD price revisions; it’s typical for sales or discounts to be accompanied by different contracts between merchants and producers.
