I felt a single, sharp pain in my groin when I saw the $4938 MSRP on that Xeon. I have no intention of ever buying one of those, and I think Intel *still* just exacted the price of my hypothetical future firstborn from me just to look at the spec sheet.

they showed slides before the benchmark, iirc 2S/64C/128T, fully populated with DDR4 16GB modules resulting in 256GB RAM (=16 channel?) but no frequencies.

So basing this off of R7 1800x prices, are we going to see Threadripper at $1000? For the R9 lineup you're obviously going to have a 4 CCX setup with 2 CCXs per die on chip(Epyc having 8 CCXs and 4 dies). This means we could also see some weird CCX core arrangements. Like the 10 core going with like a 2+3+2+3 approach or 1+1+4+4 or any other combination.

No, because that would be a *logical* price for it. Probably somewhere around $800-$900, because AMD is absolutely hell-bent on leaving money on the table.

So, combined CCX and EMIB latencies are going to be hell of an annoying thing? The idea of a 16C/32T CPU tickles my fancy, if it's sub-1000bux.

Well the Linux Build benchmarks have all shown to be pretty quick on current Ryzen chips, a 16C part should absolutely fly. Hope their HEDT platform has some server grade storage controllers or something to keep up. God I can see them having similar issues to the X79 platfrom when it launched and had all sorts of issues with its Storage controllers, like not supporting Trim, slowness, the Enterprise drivers actually being worse across the board than the consumer ones. Ugh Thank god it only took them like 2 years to get bios/driver updates to make it suck immensely less. Still. These AMD leaks and announcements seriously have me considering one down the road. It is fantastic to see AMD coming at Intel face first after 10 years of nipping at their toes. They may not be on even ground yet, but at least they are playing in the same ballpark once again.

The only reason I say down the road is because I have a X79 with 6 cores already that still makes me happy. If I was in the market for a new rig relatively soon, then making the decision between Intel/AMD would be a lot harder right now. I would actually reallllly like to get my hands on a Ryzen build just to mess with it and learn all I can about the new platfrom hands on. Maybe I can swing one of the tiny Ryzens for my Plex Transcoder server since for whatever the hell reason Plex refuses to just send raw audio for any of my newest content anymore and the NAS just can't handle it.

Same ballpark? That's maybe a bit generous. Same league, different conferences, and it looks like both teams are going to be seeing eachother in the finals.

It's usually DTS audio that causes a huge problem with this. Re-rip and transcode the audio to AC3 for a much better experience. Plex is really finicky as to which devices it'll direct stream DTS to. Heck even AC3 can be a PITA as well.

I recently upgraded from an i7-4770 workstation to a Ryzen 1700. At the same 3.6GHz all-core clocks and RAM running at DDR4-3200, the Ryzen is +/- twice the throughput for x264 encoding tasks at about the same cost as I paid for the i7 setup in 2014. It's pretty much two Haswell/Broadwell i7s in a single socket, and it rules for both heavily multithreaded throughput tasks and general multitasking. The HEDT platfroms look less appealing now that we're not limited to 4 cores on regular-rear end desktops.

What mobo/RAM kit are you using? I haven't had to pay much attention to RAM for builds before and I want to make sure I've got my eye on the correct kit.

AFAIK, Samsung B-die is still the thing to get. which means G.Skill and some Corsair. (Not all G.Skill are Samsung, though. Venn diagrams and all that, but there's a lot less of it in Corsair's product stack.) But the new AGESA update might change that. More details on that Linux kernel compile test, c/o TR: quote:To illustrate the point, AMD offered a demonstration of a 2S Epyc system going against two high-end Xeon E5-2699A v4 CPUs, each with 22 cores and 55 MB of cache. AMD's machine had 256 GB of RAM thanks to its eight channels, while the Intel-powered server was rolling with 128 GB. The Epyc box finished a Linux kernel compilation in 15.7 seconds, around 43% faster than the 22.5 seconds it took the Intel system. So, it's the memory bandwidth that was giving it the extra oomph needed, right? quote:
Not the same top-flight Xeon as before. Even if they DID have a logical justification for running the test, they probably did their benchmark and just kept downgrading the Intel chip until they got one where the one Epyc chip beat two Xeons, and then back-justified it. =P Either way, compelling, and cause for optimism. http://techreport.com/news/31927/amd-throws-some-epyc-shade-on-xeon-powered-servers SwissArmyDruid fucked around with this message at 19:30 on May 17, 2017 |

They will also be upping SoC voltage to +0.2v from +0.1v with the new bios releases to help reach 3200, not to mention running at 1.4v on the memory. If you are having issues hitting the speed, these are things you can try now with AGESA 1004.

None of these product names are as bad as the AsRock "Fatal One Thank You" IMOSwissArmyDruid posted:AFAIK, Samsung B-die is still the thing to get. which means G.Skill and some Corsair. On that note, this reddit (sorry) thread is the least useless thing I found after clicking around some Google results and it's apparently still missing a bunch of > 8 gig sticks, which would be kinda useful if you're running a lot of VMs and also want fast memory, from what I understand.* * the memory controller has problems driving four modules at over ~2800 (or so?) so you'd want two big ones instead of four small Munkeymon fucked around with this message at 20:15 on May 17, 2017 |

I have an AsRock AB350M Pro4 and this 2x8GB EVGA DDR-3000 kit. With the latest BIOS for my board, all I had to do was enable XMP and then override to DDR-3200. The CPU overclock was similarly simple by just bumping the frequency for P-state 0 to 3.6; no voltage bumps required for anything. It could probably go higher, but I'm using the stock cooler and don't need to squeeze every last MHz out of it.

My old buildserver finally started to choke a few weeks ago, so I bit the bullet and replaced it before it died entirely. I gotta throw some more memory at it, and actually sort out the memory clocks (the current stuff absolutely refuses to post above 2133), but it's absolutely smoking what I'd have been able to afford for the same budget from Intel. I finally got down to getting some actual comparison numbers yesterday using UE4 lighting builds. Something something non-scientific, single runs, same map, same quality settings. Default settings uses 6 threads for the Intel machine and 14 for the Ryzen. The 1700X machine was paging hard for most of it too, so I have no doubt another 16Gb would make this comparison even more ridiculous. quote:R7 1700X @ 3.9, 16Gb @ 2133 Actual compile times for the engine got similarly destroyed; from ~90 minutes down to an average of ~20 for a fully clean build  Impressions so far are pretty good. I've not had a chance to sit down and game on it yet to get a feel for it, but for sure it destroys heavy workloads at a fraction of the price. The only thing letting it down so far has been bios related; it'll occasionally start up and not detect any disks until it gets rebooted again, and it's strangely reluctant to run the memory any faster than 2133.

What mobo are you running? Maybe a beta bios/updated bios if you haven't might help. For mem mine wouldn't go past 2933 and then a couple bios versions ago it started working at 3200 16/18/18/36. Also I've found setting the Mem in Ryzen Master was more stable for me and also for upping the SoC (Went to 1.05v for mine, MSI calls the SOC -> NorthBridge). B350M Mortar Arctic, GSkill TridentZ 3200 C16.

I get that sometimes in my 5+ year old Asus mobo and, after the inevitable quick 'oh gently caress' moment where I assume the SSD died before I remember that this has happened before (and will happen again, I'm sure), I have to go into the BIOS and fix the boot order every loving time to get it to work again. Super annoying but also pretty rare. Maybe their BIOS authors just suck? Maybe I should stop buying Asus? Only time will tell.

Hell yeah, as soon as there's a "server/workstation" AM4 board out with things like onboard IPMI and explicit ECC support. Hopefully something like that is in the works at SuperMicro or AsRock for mATX 1U applications. Intel's E3 line would basically be worthless overnight.

whatup peeps, just built a new rig with a 1700X and an MSI B350 Tomahawk (thanks for the cool bundle, microcenter) of course, like everyone else memory has been an issue. the RAM I got ended up not being on the MSI's QVL and only seems to work at 2133 even though they're 2400 rated sticks. even after enabling XMP and switching it to 2400, which it reports successfully in the BIOS, checking things in CPU-Z returns that the RAM is still running at 2133. honestly, I'm not even worried right now, I'm sure I'm just loving up and forgetting some settings or something. made sure I flashed the latest BIOS as soon as I booted it for the first time, too. overall though, really liking the 1700X so far

If that still doesn't work you can push the SoC to 1.1 (on my MSI board it calls the SoC "NB" voltage which is terrifying and weird), you could also add more voltage to the RAM but I'm not 100% sure what is safe for 24/7 usage on DDR4.
