Not only is that a stunning price, but I'd build a tiny 2200G system in the box too
1950x was a grand when it came out, this is double the cores, increased ipc etc for £640 more. Though its not the type of cpu i want or need i would have expected the price to be higher.
Would be nice to be in a position to benefit from AMD driving down the cost of such massive core counts.
Making up for clock speed by raising core count to the point where everyone has to run moderate clocks or suffer massive power consumption

I know I am. I am upgrading my file server to a Ryzen 7 1700 as we speak so I can use ZFS, run a couple of VMs, and possibly do transcoding tasks. If I were to do that 18 months ago (i.e. before Ryzen was released) an 8 core CPU plus mid-range motherboard would've cost about £1,200 if I'm not mistaken. Today I paid £285. Oh and Intel still don't offer ECC support on any non-Xeon CPUs, so the whole project wouldn't have been possible without second hand server parts anyway.Would be nice to be in a position to benefit from AMD driving down the cost of such massive core counts.

That's the reviewer bundle, the retail box is what gibbo posted.
It's a nice price
I know- I bought it one release day. Don't get me wrong I know it a great cpu at a great price, just my wallet isn't ready.
perhaps next month.

I wonder what this 32c monster mines like?!

2.5kh maybe cv7 price of three vegas though I like these TR2 as a basis for some of those render coins that are supposed to be coming out later that require proper pcie and some of those acorn fpga if they are actually decent.
Ill go with that my one (1950x) does 2450 h/s cn-lite around 1400 cn7.
The Post Office is going to get so mad if this big boxed Threadripper starts selling in masses
