The statement from AMD says:

Next-gen Threadripper rumored to arrive on November 19
October 19, 2019
https://www.techspot.com/news/82414-next-gen-threadripper-rumored-arrive-november-19.html

Rumor mill: AMD’s top-secret Threadripper launch plans have been leaked by Videocardz: on November 5, AMD will announce the 3960X and 3970X with their accompanying TRX40 motherboards, and two weeks later they’ll arrive in-store. The mysterious 3990X will get a mention but won’t be fully revealed until January 2020.

Though Videocardz couldn’t catch any new details about the chips, we can piece together plenty from recent leaks. On Tuesday, Komachi found a product list confirming 24-core and 32-core Threadripper processors, the former of which Apisak assigned the 3960X title on Wednesday, making the 3970X the 32-core monster.

AMD finally reveals third-gen Threadripper CPUs, core counts and all
November 7, 2019
https://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/3083539/amd-third-gen-threadripper-official

It's alive! AMD has finally uncloaked its long-rumoured third-generation Threadripper processors.

The top-of-the-line Ryzen Threadripper 3970X comes with a mighty 32 cores and 64 threads, running between 3.7GHz to 4.5GHZ and sporting a healthy 144MB of cache. You'll need to fork out $1,999 (some £1,560) for the privilege of having such a slice of silicon, but that's a heck of a bargain - on paper at least - when compared to the 18-core Intel Core i9-9980XE that cost some £1,500 to £2,000.
Drop down to $1,399, around a grand in Blighty bullion, and you'll bag you the Ryzen Threadripper 3960X, a 24-core, 48-thread CPU with 140MB of cache and a base clock speed of 3.8GHz running up to 4.5GHz.

Both of these Threadripper CPUs will be released into the wild on 25 November, just in time for PC fans to build an epic Christmas computer.
The chipmaker also revealed some more details about the 16 core Ryzen 9 3950X [...]

AMD Threadripper 3970X And 3960X Review: Multi-Threaded Domination
November 25, 2019
https://hothardware.com/reviews/amd-ryzen-threadripper-3000-series-cpu-review

The 3rd Generation Threadripper 3970X and 3760X are 32-core (64-thread) and 24-core (48-thread) processors, respectively, much like AMD’s previous-generation WX-series Threadrippers.
[...] (3.8GHz base / 4.5GHz boost for the 3960X and 3.7GHz base / 4.5GHz boost for the 3970X)
Our Summary And The Verdict
With the launch of these 3rd Generation Threadripper 3000 series processors, AMD turns the high-end desktop processor market on its head.
Not only is performance on another level versus virtually all other desktop platforms, but the vast majority of quirks and performance anomalies present with previous-gen Threadripper WX-series processors have been eliminated, [...]

There are still some applications (like some games) that don’t behave well on many-core processors, but 3rd Gen Threadrippers are a massive improvement regardless.
In the end, we can’t help but be impressed with what AMD has done with these new 3rd Gen Threadrippers. They are incredibly high performers and offer features (like PCI Express 4.0) not available elsewhere.

The 32-core Threadripper 3970X is now available to buy
$1,999 MSRP, no more, no less
January 6, 2020
https://www.techspot.com/news/83408-32-core-threadripper-3970x-now-available-buy.html

In a nutshell: Do you like your CPUs to pack an obscene number of cores? Then here’s some good news: AMD’s monstrous 32-core/64-thread Threadripper 3970X is finally available for purchase. What’s even better is that the processor is available for the MSRP of $1,999.

We gave the third-generation 3970X Threadripper a score of 90 in November’s review. While it’s AMD’s most expensive desktop CPU ever, it does come with 128MB L3 cache, a base frequency of 3.7 GHz, and a boost of 4.5 GHz, not to mention those 32 cores and 64 threads.
The 3970X blasted through our benchmark tests, showing excellent single-core performance along with amazing multi-core performance.

For those who can’t or won’t spend $2,000 on a CPU, the 24-core Threadripper 3960X is also available on Amazon for $1,453, which is $53 higher than its MSRP. Like its more expensive sibling, it also offers quad-channel DDR4 and a total of 88 PCIe 4.0 lanes, 64 of which can be used for devices such as SSDs and graphics cards.
