5th Generation Threadripper Pro Workstation

Threadripper Pro 5975WX Workstation PC – Built in the UK

The 5th Generation Threadripper Pro Workstation is a high-end Threadripper Pro 5975WX workstation PC for video editing, rendering, 3D modelling and other highly threaded professional workloads.

 
This workstation is designed for work that keeps every core busy. A Threadripper Pro 5975WX workstation PC like this one suits video editing and rendering, 3D modelling, content creation, transcoding, ray tracing, digital audio encoding, virtual machines and many engineering and scientific applications. The 32 core, 64 thread processor can run many processes at once, which reduces compute time on CPU-intensive jobs. It sits on the AMD WRX80 platform, with ECC memory, 10GbE networking and plenty of expansion room.

 
The 5th Generation Threadripper Pro Workstation is built on an AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5975WX processor with 32 cores and 64 threads, an ASUS PRO WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI motherboard, 64GB of DDR4 ECC RDIMM memory at 3200MHz and a 1TB WD Blue SN5100 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD. Graphics come from an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 8GB card, cooling from a Be Quiet! Silent Loop 3 420mm all-in-one liquid cooler and power from a Contour 1000W ATX 3.1 PSU, all in a Fractal Design Define 7 XL case. It ships with genuine, pre-installed Microsoft Windows 11 Professional and a 3-year parts and labour warranty.

32 core Threadripper Pro processor

The AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5975WX runs at a 3.6GHz base clock and boosts to 4.5GHz, with 128MB of L3 cache. That combination gives you a very large number of cores and threads together with strong performance per core, so heavily threaded applications finish sooner while single-threaded tasks stay responsive. The platform uses an eight-channel memory architecture, and the WRX80 board has 8 DIMM slots. The processor has no integrated graphics, so a dedicated graphics card drives all your monitors.

64GB ECC memory and 1TB NVMe storage

The system is fitted with 64GB of DDR4 ECC RDIMM memory at 3200MHz, supplied as 4 x 16GB. ECC memory detects and corrects single-bit memory errors, which matters on long renders, simulations and virtual machine workloads. Four of the eight DIMM slots are used, and the board supports up to 2TB, so there is room to grow as your projects do.

The 1TB WD Blue SN5100 M.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD (up to 7100MB/s read, 6700MB/s write) holds Windows and your applications. The motherboard has three M.2 slots, two of them free, plus 8 SATA 6Gb/s ports. The case has mounts for 18 x 3.5″ and 5 x 2.5″ drives, so bulk project storage can be added without replacing anything.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 graphics

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 8GB GDDR6 card has 2560 cores and provides 3 x DisplayPort 2.1b and 1 x HDMI 2.1b outputs, for up to four monitors (the output layout may vary by card brand). This configuration puts its weight on the processor, memory and storage, which suits CPU-led work. If your software leans on the graphics card, for example GPU-accelerated rendering or colour grading, you can choose a more powerful card in the configurator. The motherboard has five PCIe 4.0 x16 slots, one of which the graphics card uses.

Fractal Design Define 7 XL case and cooling

The Fractal Design Define 7 XL Solid Black is a full tower with solid steel panels. It measures 604mm deep, 240mm wide and 566mm high, and comes with 3 x Dynamic X2 GP-14 fans pre-installed. The Be Quiet! Silent Loop 3 uses a 420mm radiator to keep the 32 core processor cool under sustained load. The Contour 1000W fully modular ATX 3.1 PSU leaves headroom for a more powerful graphics card and extra drives.

10GbE networking, Wi-Fi 6 and USB

The ASUS PRO WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI board provides 10GbE wired networking from an Intel X550-AT2 controller, which helps when moving large project files to and from a server or NAS. Wireless is Wi-Fi 6 with Bluetooth 5.1, and audio is High Definition Audio 7.1 (Realtek ALC4080).

The rear panel offers 1 x Type-C 20Gbps, 1 x Type-C 10Gbps and 8 x Type-A 10Gbps ports. The front panel has 1 x USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Type-C, 2 x USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-A, 2 x USB 2.0 and headphone and microphone jacks.

Windows 11 Professional

Microsoft Windows 11 Professional is genuine and pre-installed. It adds BitLocker drive encryption, Remote Desktop and domain join, which are useful when the workstation sits on a business network or hosts virtual machines.

Ideal for

• Video editors and colourists working on CPU-intensive projects and transcoding
• 3D artists and animators rendering and ray tracing on many cores
• Engineers and scientists running multi-threaded engineering and scientific applications
• Developers and IT teams running several virtual machines at once
• Audio producers and content creators encoding and processing large files

Anyone who needs this Threadripper Pro 5975WX workstation PC is buying cores, memory capacity and expansion rather than graphics power. It balances 32 cores, 64GB of ECC memory, fast NVMe storage and 10GbE in a quiet, well-cooled full tower, with the graphics card and storage open to change in the configurator.

Built to order and tested in the UK by Punch Technology, every system comes with a 3-year parts and labour warranty, backed by over 30 years of PC building experience and our status as an AMD Elite System Builder. The estimated lead time for your configuration is shown when you order.

What is the 5th Generation Threadripper Pro Workstation best for?

The 5th Generation Threadripper Pro Workstation is primarily a CPU-led workstation for sustained, highly threaded professional work such as rendering, video encoding, 3D modelling and virtual machines. Its 32 cores and 64 threads, 64GB of ECC memory and 10GbE networking are aimed at people who measure productivity in finished renders and exports. It is not built around a high-end graphics card, so choose a stronger one in the configurator if your workflow depends on the GPU.

In practice that means Blender CPU rendering, HandBrake transcoding, and DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro and After Effects projects where CPU, memory and storage do much of the work. Large datasets and several virtual machines benefit from the 64GB starting point and the 2TB memory ceiling. Windows 11 Professional adds BitLocker, Remote Desktop and domain join for business use.

Where does the 5th Generation Threadripper Pro Workstation sit in the range?

Below this workstation in the range, the Core i7 Professional DDR5 Workstation PC uses an Intel Core i7-12700KF with an RTX 5070 Ti 16GB graphics card and 32GB of DDR5 memory. The Performance Plus Video Editing Computer pairs an Intel Core Ultra 7 270K Plus with an RTX 5060 Ti 16GB card and 48GB of DDR5 memory. Both put more weight on graphics, while this Threadripper Pro system puts its weight on 32 cores, ECC memory capacity, 10GbE and expansion slots.
