This seems like a more proper comparison to the M1 Ultra that was announced today. Looking forward to independent benchmarks.
Anyone knows why Zen 3 Threadripper just got announced, while Zen 3 desktop is a year and a half old and about to be replaced? Why is the workstation part a generation behind?
Most likely chip shortage and Intel not having anything to compete with.
My understanding is that they prioritized higher margin (server) EPYC sales, due to the supply issues and the fact that they're more or less the same chip.
