Damn even Threadripper aint cheap though... But that is a seriously skookum chip. Not even sure what someone would use that for outside of server stuff. Rendering?

Yeap. Content creators love cores.

 

[sdifox]

Ryzen (non threadripper) chips are decent enough though... I want to build a box similar to my mining rig then have myself a 2 node VM cluster. Want to switch to Proxmox so it will give me hardware to experiment on before I migrate to it. 3 (or any impair number) boxes is preferred but think 2 works too.

Should pay off my truck first though...

16 core Ryzen 9 3750X

Differentiation is in memory channels.

Ryzen 2, Threadripper 4, Epyc 8.

As you go up in core count, memory bandwidth becomes the bottleneck.

Why can't you buy Epyc?

That's on newegg though. I'd hate to see the customs on that. Been a while since I ordered from there as it tends to be my last resort as it's American, but pretty sure stuff ships from the states. Or do they have a warehouse here?

But still, at that price I could build 2 Threadripper systems or like 4-6 Ryzen systems.

 

[sdifox]

Newegg Canada. They have presence here now, though I don't particularly like the ownership.

I am waiting three years for off lease Epyc Rome servers 1P 1U 64 cores.

 

[Red Squirrel]

Crazy to think that companies only use a server like that for a few years. Seems like such a waste lol, but good for people like us who can get them off lease.

I can't picture what AMD will put out in three years

They may as well just call the next one Intelripper. As in, it rips them apart.

I hope Intel has a solution in three years.

Muahahahha a guy from Winnipeg is finally able to wear long pants after 18 years. He vowed to not wear pants until Bluebombers won the Gray Cup. Only took 18 years lol.

They need to work on the security too. Intel CPUs are the IIS 6.0 of this era.

Seriously though will be interesting to see what they come up with though, I'm sure they are scrambling at this point. They've been ahead of AMD for a while now and AMD just keeps dropping these bombshells.

haha reminds me of the guy who vowed not to shave his beard until they find Osama Bin Laden. That 10 year beard was pretty crazy lol.

Well that sucks just realized I lost my Gopro USB cable, and the Gopro does not use a normal USB plug, it's more oval. So not only is the battery completely dead (which is bad for it) but I have no way to charge it until I get a new one. I don't know how that happened because I always made sure to keep the cable stored with it.

Did you know that when you bought it? I would have wanted a standard cable. I have a stupid Sennheiser bluetooth headset that needs a proprietary dongle. Asshats. Everything should be USB Type C these days.

Fuck I am sick again

No that's the type of thing they don't really advertise. I was annoyed when I realized it. Looks close enough to microusb that it's easy to mistake it too.

Ahahaha Blue Bombers finally get the Grey Cup to Winnipeg and they break it!

 

[sdifox]

Wait. It was a 29 year drought.

Man, this is a great evening. The Habs folded early. They are fighting ever so valiantly. Down 5-1 halfway through the 2nd. Make that 6-1. Pasta with the hat trick!

 

[bigboxes]

I thought the rink announcer was speaking Russian. It was French.

 

[bigboxes]

8-1 Final. Squirrel? Should we send out the paramedics to check on you?

Had the tiger kitties won, the cup would still be intact. Also, dude would have cold legs
