Designed with a 280W TDP and advanced Zen Core architecture, it delivers unparalleled multitasking and compute power for professional creators and managers who demand peak performance without compromise. ## Description The Ryzen Threadripper 3990X has 64 cores and 128 threads with a 4 3 GHz Boost 2 9 GHz base clock 288 MB total cache and 280 Watts TDP Review: Best CPU I have had - no need for overclocking! - I am writing this review not to tell you how impressed I am by the fact that one can actually have 64 cores / 128 threads in one CPU die twice as cheap as the competition and do it gracefully, not overheating or anything like that (well, excuse my Kaby Lake that started overheating after running full load for a couple of days). I am writing to point out that one does not need to try to overclock the new generation AMD CPU's because modern motherboards compete by *safely* overclocking modern CPU's in their default mode, even in the energy saving 'ECO' mode that is! After installing my Ryzen Threadripper (3990x) I was certainly cautious whether the AIO cooling solution provided by the dedicated Corsair MasterLiquid ML360R special edition for 3990x would be adequate for this powerful CPU running at full load 24/7. So I was running test after test with different load patterns (16/32/64/96/128 threads) as well as different fan settings, with the aim of finding an elusive "sweet spot" for the 'just right cooling at minimal noise' from the fans.Eventually I also tried to overclock the CPU moderately (up to 3.6 GHz) and see how the CPU die temperature and the noise from all the fans (6 in total) would interplay. I should say, I was pretty much amazed at the result! It appeared that at default ECO settings the BIOS (i.e. the motherboard) acted like both a very efficient overclocking wizard (behind the scene; many people would not notice even) but also as a shield for the CPU not to overheat while still providing just the correct level of power for any particular load. To my big surprise(!), if I wanted to overclock manually by setting the CPU frequency precisely, I would definitely go into a dangerous regime of uncontrolled (over-) heating, albeit masked by the time it would require to manifest, depending on the frequency I opted for - the higher the frequency the shorter the time. Long story made short, If you try to overclock such a powerful CPU, beware that the BIOS will (unduly!) maintain precisely the preset frequency that you chose in the BIOS settings, no matter what - that is, irrespective of the actual load, i.e. in the idle state too! This is an easy way to unduly overheat and, by doing so, ware out the CPU beyond its actual capacity (like a battery that is never given a chance to properly recharge in full). On the contrary, if you leave it to the BIOS (motherboard) to decide on the overclocking regime depending on the actual load (by opting for the default settings), you will (a) prolong the CPU life (while staying under warranty!), (b) will be using exactly the power needed for the load at the time, (c) save some quid/dollar on your electricity bill as the wattage spent will be exactly proportional to the load your CPU (and PC) is using (i.e. the over- or under- clocking done by the motherboard). As an extra bonus, your ears (and perhaps the climate in your family) will be healthier! :) That's all I wanted share, based on my extensive tests for over two weeks of running this CPU under different loads and cooling. About the cooling regime, by the way, if you don't definitely overclock beyond what is necessary for your tasks (well, games for some), you will find that no special regime is required, just auto-tune your fans and maybe you will be able even to reduce the primary CPU (Corsair in my case) fans to run at lower speeds most of the time, unless the CPU die T goes over 70 C.

I wish i could tell you it also arranges returns for your wife but it doesn't. **Q: Will this run Duke nukem 3d in 720p?** A: It can run Duke Nukem 3D on ultra low settings but you'll be lucky to squeeze 10 FPS out of it. You'll also likely need an AIO running liquid nitrogen to keep thermals under control. **Q: will this processor work with the auros xtreme x399 motherboard ?** A: No, it won't work. Don't confuse the TRX40 Aorus Xtreme with the X399 Aorus Xtreme. The latter board only supports Threadripper 1st and 2nd gen which use the X399 chipset. This 3rd gen CPU uses the new TRX40 chipset so it won't work.

I'm 65, a retired Aerospace Engineer and I still like to do a lot of CAD design and Rendering for my hobby now. This processor is INSANE Fast ! I have been using workstations in Aerospace for the last 40 years or so. Mostly high end, very expensive UNIX boxes. But I have never seen a processor the likes of this. Expensive? YES. But if you want the best in the world you pay the price. I can't believe anyone would ever be disappointed with the AMD Threadripper 3990x as the heart of their Workstation. This processor actually has an overclocking algorithm built in called "Precision Boost Overdrive" that lets you extend the boost clock to 4.5GHz. You just set it and forget it. I have never had a crash with PBO +200MHz enabled. ## Frequently Bought Together - AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3990X 64-Core, 128-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor - Corsair Vengeance LPX 256GB (8x32GB) DDR4 3200 (PC4-25600) C16 1.35V Desktop Memory - Black - Samsung 980 PRO SSD 2TB PCIe NVMe Gen 4 Gaming M.2 Internal Solid State Drive Memory Card, Maximum Speed, Thermal Control MZ-V8P2T0B/AM --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - ๐Ÿ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** โ€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - ๐ŸŒ **Shop Globally** โ€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - ๐Ÿ’ฐ **No Hidden Fees** โ€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - ๐Ÿ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** โ€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - ๐Ÿ”’ **Secure Payments** โ€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - โญ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** โ€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/184159121-ryzen-threadripper-3990x](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/184159121-ryzen-threadripper-3990x) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
