    AMD 2nd Gen Ryzen 2 2700X Zen+ CPU Review @ [H]

    Thanks. I started here, many years ago, in the storage section (many crazy people there, doing the same crazy stuff i was doing at the time. Very good information too.) 1 year ago, for the ryzen debut, i couldn't read 90% of the threads here... Because of the "mud throwing". My point is it's...

    AMD 2nd Gen Ryzen 2 2700X Zen+ CPU Review @ [H]

    Wow! WOW! I don't have much to say on the topic, so sorry for that, but i do have some sort of "meta analysis": I was able to read the 9 pages of comments, without skipping large chunks due to name calling, cherry picking, logical fallacies, etc! All this in a launch review! Also got some...

    [H] AMD Mafia

    Just registered :) Sorry, AMD boxes busy. But this box is (was) idle, will let it run at 24 threads, a bit downclocked, for a couple of days. :)

    New Threadripper Build Ordered

    Nice! Please keep us (me!) updated, I was planning a similar build not long ago, but had to postpone it for a bit. I'll be using linux too, with some virtualization, and 128GB RAM, so i'm very interested in your experiences :) Thanks,

    AMD Threadripper Gooseberry HEDT World Record? - [H]

    I do that all the time in linux, you can too with TR if you overclock using pstates. Example from one of my servers: Now change only cpu1 to 800000: Put some cpu load on the system and check the current freq: You can easily create some scripts to automate all this ;)

    AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pre-buy NOW LIVE

    I agree, benchmarks first.... But i'm finding it difficult to resist. Also... Just checked amazon's cpu best sellers and the 1950x is there. Also... 50% of the entries are from amd... Brave new world :-)...

    AMD Ryzen 16 Core “Whitehaven” Enthusiast CPUs Leaked – 3.6GHz Clock Speed, Boatloads of Cache & Qua

    It's your graph. Just pointing out the inconsistency. And you introduced this graph to counter a point about SKL-X exceeding the TDP on certain workloads. Doing that you granted the point that ryzen (even 1800X, which seems to be the worst case) is perfectly within the TDP. Also, regarding this...

    AMD Ryzen 16 Core “Whitehaven” Enthusiast CPUs Leaked – 3.6GHz Clock Speed, Boatloads of Cache & Qua

    In your graph, all Ryzens are at or below the official "TDP". And all SL-Xs are above the official "TDP".

    AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pre-buy

    The taichi costs $350... Cheaper than i was expecting. TR also cheaper. Not going to preorder, but i may need a 128GB+ system soon and this sounds tempting :D 8 * 16GB also cheaper than 4 * 32GB.... hmmmmmmm :D

    Ryzen Owners Thread

    Ohhh OK. I thought you were mixing reg memory with ecc memory. Anyway, your aorus k7 specs say: Dual Channel ECC/ Non-ECC Unbuffered (non-registered) DDR4, 4 DIMMs

    Ryzen Owners Thread

    Hmmmm now you're talking about ECC, i think? I believe that both your board and ryzen support ECC. I was refering to the registered part. Those registered DIMMs are not compatible. You need regular (aka non-registered, aka unbuffered) DRAM. ECC or non-ECC.

    Ryzen Owners Thread

    Registered (aka buffered) won't work in any ryzen. Non server platforms usually take only the regular (aka non-registered, aka unbuffered) DRAM.
