While AMD jacked up the price of its Threadripper Pro chips to equal a used car, consumers are getting a break: AMD is now leaving the price of its Threadripper 9000 series unchanged from the prior generation.

AMD said Friday that the new Threadripper 9000 series of chips will begin shipping on July 31. The price of the high-end 64-core/128-thread Ryzen Threadripper 9980X will remain at $4,999, the same price that the Ryzen 7980X debuted at in 2023. Based on how inflation has fared since then (about 2.5 percent), that’s a “discount” of about $130 or so.

AMD announced the Threadripper 9000 HEDT (high-end desktop) at the end of May, alongside the 9000 WX or Pro parts for servers. The 96-core/192-thread 9995WX costs $11,699 while the 96-core 7995WX Pro launched at $9,999.

Here are the prices of the new Ryzen Threadripper 9980X parts—again, the same as their predecessors:

The new Threadrippers are designed to use the same TR5 socket as their predecessors, with memory support up to 1TB of DDR5-6400 RDIMMs across four channels. A total of 92 lanes of PCIe are available, with 80 PCIe 5.0 lanes.

Should you buy a new Threadripper? Probably not, especially with the range of Ryzen 7 9800X3D parts instead. AMD said that it’s aiming the new Threadrippers at AI model training, while parts like the Ryzen 7 9800X3D and especially the new Ryzen AI Max and Max+ (Strix Halo) processors are optimized for gaming and AI inferencing.
