On November 25, 2019, AMD released the sTRX4 socket alongside their Threadripper 3000 series of HEDT (high-end desktop) processors with the promise of long term support for the platform.[1][2] This along with the strong reputation of socket AM4 led many people to invest into the platform. Despite the promises made, AMD ultimately fell flat and only supported a total of one generation of CPUs before freezing the regular Ryzen Threadripper lineup till the release of Threadripper 7000 on socket sTR5.
