motherboard and liquid nitrogen cooling.

FULL STORY
======================================================================AMD's 
Threadripper Pro 9995WX workstation processor hit 6GHz and set new world 
performance records ASUS overclockers took the 96-core CPU to new heights 
with a liquid nitrogen cooling setup New Threadripper 9000 series flagship 
combines extreme specs with unlocked overclocking potential 

AMDs new Threadripper Pro 9995WX is already proving itself to be the most 
powerful workstation CPU available. 

The top-end offering in the freshly launched Threadripper 9000 series, the 
9995WX features 96 cores, 192 threads, a 2.5GHz base clock, and boost speeds 
up to 5.4GHz. 

It also supports 144 usable PCIe Gen5 lanes, 128MB of L3 cache, and 8-channel 
DDR5 ECC memory at up to 6400MT/s. Breaking records 

Now on sale, priced at an eye-watering $11,699 at Amazon and Newegg, the 
9995WX is technically designed for high-end workstations, but it has already 
become a popular choice in the extreme overclocking scene. 

Using liquid nitrogen and an ASUS Pro WS WRX90E-SAGE SE motherboard, ASUS 
overclocking team member CENS pushed the chip to nearly 6GHz across all 96 
cores, reaching a Cinebench R23 score of 227,817, which is an all-time world 
record. 

The CPU was cooled to -47C during the session and powered by a 2,000W PSU. 

Clock speeds held steady between 5,746MHz and 5,950MHz, allowing the chip to 
maintain full-core stability under sustained loads. 

That performance beat the previous record of 210,000 points set by AMDs 
earlier 7995WX chip, and positions the 9995WX firmly at the top of the HEDT 
segment. 

In total, the 9995WX was part of eight new world records and first-place 
benchmark results across Cinebench, Geekbench, 7-Zip, HWBOT x265, and 
Y-cruncher. 

ASUS overclockers CENS, OGS, SEBY, and others all used the same chip to take 
top spots in both global and hardware categories. 

The 9995WX may be aimed at professionals, but its unlocked design and massive 
core count also make it a showcase for what current desktop CPU engineering 
can achieve. 

Matched with a high-end board and liquid nitrogen cooling, ASUS demonstrates 
just how hard a workstation processor can be pushed. (Image credit: ASUS) You
