Investors might be sticker-shocked by the price of these new AMD processors, but it's worth noting these aren't for the average computer user. Instead, the Threadripper Pro line is designed with professionals in mind. The large number of cores allows them to be used in powerful applications, such as rendering and artificial intelligence (AI).
AMD is also expected to release Threadripper processors that are more reasonably priced. These will lack the Pro designation, but will still offer plenty of power to computer builders. However, the company has yet to reveal how much these CPUs will set consumers back.
