I was actually considering the Thinkstation P620 platform, but realized that it wouldn't fit 2x 3090s (at the full PCI-E 4.0 bandwidth for both, based on 4-slot NVLink bridges) -- details here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/k7x89h/epyc_motherboard_supporting_acpi_s3_or_s4_aka/ That and...

Are you talking about Lenovo selling the standalone CPUs themselves? If so, where? Edit: FRUs are: Threadripper Pro 3945WX 4.0GHz: 5SA0U56239 https://lenovo.encompass.com/item/12603681/Lenovo/5SA0U56239/ Threadripper Pro 3955WX 3.9GHz: 5SA0U56238...

This is a bit of a late reply, but I figured I'd post an update on this with my own experiences. BTW, thanks to everyone that contributed to the compilation of the Xeon list... helped to decide what I wanted! I purchased a QB7Z (C0 stepping) on eBay a bit less than 2 weeks ago for fairly cheap...

That's bizarre, the setting works as intended on my S55-A5279 -- I believe we have the same Toshiba VG10S motherboard. I tested with GRC's securable as well and it read the correct values when set to VT-x only and Disabled. Maybe you just have to reset BIOS settings to default to make it behave...

That is correct, DP can be unlocked in Linux or Windows. The support for ECC/TCC is driver-dependent... basically NVIDIA locks you out of those features given you're buying a consumer card to protect their market. Some in the past were able to unlock a GTX 480 into a C2050... see...

Since I just tested this on a GTX TItan, I thought I'd post. The simpleHyperQ sample in the CUDA 5.0 SDK can do up to 8 streams at a time on the Titan, versus 32 streams on the K20/K20x. Tested this on Ubuntu 12.10 x64, MSI X79A-GD45 (8D) motherboard, NVIDIA drivers 313.18, which detect the...

Not sure what authority these guys have, but they seem to confirm that DP performance will be severely castrated to the default Kepler levels... which isn't really a surprise...

I guess my confusion arises from the fact that: K20 has 13 SMX active: 13*192 = 2496 cores K20x has 14 SMX active: 14*192 = 2688 cores If Titan does indeed come with 2688 cores enabled by default, wouldn't that mean that it really is a crippled K20 in firmware alone given 14 SMXs are active...

(disclaimer: I don't game, I'm just concerned with CUDA / GPGPU research) I'd be curious to know if Titan will have the same double-precision performance as its Tesla K20 counterpart, mainly because the core count on the Titan is slightly higher. My gut feeling tells me NVIDIA will probably...

And you would be correct, as I tried that approach. The support person basically said it might work, it might not. When I inquired to see if they had any additional documentation in regards to the stepping that other line of thought came out. I might scrap the idea at the moment and just end up...

Thanks for the responses, I guess I should have been a bit clearer. I have no doubt the retail version of the E5-2620 supports VT-d and everything Intel advertises. The production processor steppings are C1 and C2, as per: http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Xeon/Intel-Xeon%20E5-2620.html My...

I have the opportunity to get one of these engineering sample CPUs for a new build for about ~$200, where the lowest retail/shipped price I have seen is around $400. Can anyone comment if VT-d features would work on this processor? For that matter, if anyone else is running the same processor...
