Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
You're not wrong but it doesn't work out well in my use case.
On X570 you have 36 addressable PCI-e lanes 20 on the CPU and 16 on the chipset. (Don't forget that you lose lanes for CPU -> Chipset) The board makers usually peal off a few lanes for stuff like onboard ethernet, sound, high speed...
For me I would like to run 2-4 M.2 drives with dual GPUs and 10GBe or better networking... For 99% of users X570 X490 is perfectly fine.
More AI/ML/Data Science with some other random vm/container/development tasks.
This ^^^^^ you just dont move a chip to a new fab and process. The chips are designed with both fab capability and process in mind not to mention the NDAs where usually a team can only have access to one fabs design docs.
A super refresh next summer on TSMC sure. Moving exciting cards that...
For sale is the motherboard and CPU from my old HTPC I think I have the original box but other wise no accessories sans I/O plate with the motherboard.
MSI B150M Mortar $75
Intel i3 6100 $75
I also have the CPU from my old game rig
Intel i5 7400 $125
Heatware is DeChache
All prices are best...
For me at least workstation gets the big box. I would ideally have the 24/32c threadripper with 128gb of ram and something like the 10900K with the 3080ti. I've been doing a lot of software builds and AI/DL/ML experimentation. It will do some video editing/encoding too.
I was going to go...
Should have it mostly running this weekend it will be end of next week before its at full speed. I live in BFE and shipping times are a bit long right now (cooler and GPU are lagging)... I can pull the 5700XT out of game rig and use the stock cooler worst case. Like OP this machine is going to...
I will find out this weekend. Picking up a 3900X and X470 board from a friend... I also belong to the camp of selling my 1600/B350 combo for an intel box. So we shall see.
Thank you for the information. I am well aware of what I'm getting into with both platforms. Though I do appreciate the confirmation of my research.
2nd Gen TR probably doesn't make the most sense but if I could find a decent deal it would still be faster than these X5660's :) I wish I didn't...
