@earllemongrab7960 6 месяцев назад

The "Our Threadripper experience to date" part of the video was really insightful and enjoyable to listen to. The fact that "niche" but extremely expensive products have worse support than the mainstream commercial offerings. Makes sense but at the same time it's somewhat shocking to hear.

@Raivo_K 6 месяцев назад

I think Buildzoud has said the same about mainstream motherboards. Buying the Godlike, Apex or Xtreme boards could mean worse support compared to Tomahawk, Ace or Hero boards that are sold in much bigger numbers. I have a X570 Master board that was quite expensive in 2019 costing over 400 but since it was also relatively popular (for example Gamers Nexus used it as their board for AM4 reviews) it still receives BIOS updates to this day. the newest BIOS is from September this year. About 4 years after release.

@PainterVierax 6 месяцев назад

@@Raivo_K In the meantime, the budget boards used by most system builders aren't that well supported though, only the middle gets support. This is expected on the lower end but completely unacceptable on the higher end, especially on HEDT. I'm confident this lack of support doesn't happen in the professional segment with brands like Dell or Supermicro.

@GeorgePerakis 5 месяцев назад

Your experience with Threadripper 5000 is definitely interesting to hear about. It definitely goes to highlight why I'm glad AMD seems to have changed its approach now with the 7000 series. The Pro and Enthusiast class Threadrippers can now share a platform, and they start at an actually somewhat reasonable pricepoint, closer to the way Threadripper 1000 and 2000 worked, and I really think those early hits were AMD's best effort, they were simply groundbreaking for their time. The broader the audience, the more the support, fewer problems in the long run. And these chips and boards hold their value pretty darn well in the used market. I like the pricing for the 32 core, 2500 is not bad for a chip like that, but it does have to be stated it's 500 more expensive than its 2990WX ancestor, with fewer PCI-E lanes. Inflation, I suppose, but I do feel like it would be much more appealing at 2 grand rather than 2.5. That 24 core, though, sheesh, with only 24 cores you're still basically competing with the 7950X in multicore performance, and that chip is only 600 dollars, without a bundle or a black friday sale. 1500 dollars for the entry level is rough. Entry level for HEDT threadripper used to be a measly 500 dollars. I really think AMD needs to rethink this. Drop that to a flat 1k and it will be within budget for a lot more people. Dropping over a grand on a CPU is just too hard a pill to swallow for too many people, especially when that was once the price of the original Threadripper flagship. It really goes to show how competition is good for consumers. AMD was much better about its pricing when they weren't dominating the server space and Intel actually had competing products in HEDT. As for the Pro sku pricing, yeah let's not even start with that, that's a whole different ball game, that's "take out a long term loan just to build a computer" level. 10 grand for the 96 core, yikes. Really only aimed at people who need insane performance for a truly insane workflow.

Hoping we get a 7960X review at some point... perhaps it'll fair better than the others in gaming... unlikely but possible. I'm at least considering it, as I'm finding myself doing a lot of rendering workloads lately & less gaming, not sure how much of an adnvantage the 7960X setup would have over what I have now, since a fair bit of the workload is done on GPU. Of course, getting a Threadripper setup would allow me to slowly add more GPUs & thusly exponentially increase my potential output/workload capability.

I have seen some people complain about the cost of this cpu saying they would want the whole system to cost 5k and my thoughts were that really it would probably be that if you are in the market for this cpu you will probably be in the 10-15k range. The motherboards are about 1000, rams about 1000, the gpus you would want to pair this with are 1000 plus. Then why would you buy this if you didnt also need loads of pcie lanes so add money for all the peripherals and large/fast nvme/ssds. A huge ATX case, a huge power supply.

Don't forget that CPUs maintain industry leadership performance in CGI studios (like ILM or Weta digital). GPU are extremely limited in that kind of computational task. CPU like these can access to terabytes of fast ram, while GPUs have limited pool of GDDR (few gigabytes). That has a huge impact while rendering complex animation, like a building collapsing, an explosion or a fluid simulation. It's totally different from our gaming perception where we think GPU can handle any kind of graphic task. I remembered seeing a special, shot inside DreamWorks headquarters, where they illustrated why they had to use AMD Opteron CPUs to handle perfect global illumination in a full CGI movie like "Shrek" indeed of a batch of simple graphics card. It was almost 20 years ago and still we have GPU that are memory bound😅

I don't have a use case for Threadripper, but a monster CPU that's stacked full of threads always seemed like something fun to try. Maybe one day I'll find a real use case for one in a home server or something. Or maybe slap Gentoo on it and compile chromium in four minutes.

@NootNoot. 6 месяцев назад

You're issue with the MSI WS WRX80 is really unfortunate. To hear that there was pretty much no bios updates due to not making it to production and only releasing samples. This is telling since, Gamers Nexus had a mobo roundup for the TRX50, and MSI telling them they're sitting this launch out. It's not something they're interested in. So much for Pro lol, I wonder if big studios/companies buying these products had any issues as well

@sirmonkey1985 6 месяцев назад

any studio's that might of had them were using pre-builds which are a business tax write off so likely were using supermicro developed boards which are designed for stability first, performance second.

@NootNoot. 6 месяцев назад

@@sirmonkey1985 True, forgot there are other mobo vendors that are more suitable/reliable than MSI

I wonder how well DaVinci Resolve would run with the newest generation of TR CPUs. I'll keep an eye on Puget Systems, which specializes in video production testing. Definitely not the best choice for gaming, but for certain productivity tasks - wow!

My WRX80 board from ASRock has had a few BIOS updates and is rock stable, so I think you were unlucky with the MSI board, I think its based on a server board since it has IPMI etc, the server team know how to make something that is stable

Threadripper is the kind of tech that's so damn cool to see, it makes me, a mere gamer, want to learn to do some sort of work that can utilize this beastly tech so i can have an excuse to buy one.

I was wondering how memory bandwidth starved higher core count Ryzen CPUs might be if AMD did increase the core count with Zen 5 or Zen 6 but still left it at only dual channel memory. So comparing TR scores with dual and quad memory would be really interesting. Thanks Steve!

@Hardware Unboxed : Hi Steve and Tim, can you guys please test the new Threadripper CPU in Windows 10/11 to see if it crashes like the older generations (the infamous "event ID 56 - ACPI 15" full system crash) so that people know if this problem still persists or not ? Thank you. referring to your Threadripper earlier generation problems : have you guys experienced the Windows 10/11 system crashes (event ID 56 - ACPI 15) ? Did you perhaps have the exact same brand/model/series M.2 NVMe SSD's in your system ? (can you post detailed system specs of your older gen Threadripper PC's please ?

That 240mm Deepcool AIO is no slouch if it can cool down these beasts even with a PBO overclock where they consume well over 300W.

Windows 11 21H2 is quite old, and you said it was the last windows 11 build (which should be 23H2). Is it a mistake in the spreadsheet or you tested it on 21H2 on purpose?

It was a mistake on screen. I'll fix that moving forward.

The reason why very few people now actually buy HEDTs is because thanks to Ryzen regular desktop CPUs have become super capable workhorses. The major difference we now get with the HEDT and Pro CPUs vs regular desktop CPUs is the number of available PCIe lanes. I know SLi and CrossFire are basically dead in the water, but it will be really interesting to see if there would be any good gains if you put 2x 4090s or 2x RX 7900XTXs. Especially now when you can have 2x 7900XTX for less money than a single 4090 it's interesting to know if both running in x16/x16 config with MGPU Enabled can outperform a single 4090.

At these prices and with such spec, I’m curious who are the buyers? System integrators? Because I can’t imagine building a workstation and not having any fast support option.

@Hugh_I 6 месяцев назад

The PRO line-up always used to come out first OEM only and I would assume a huge chunk of actual pro users/companies that buy a lot of them would buy them from an OEM with support contracts and all.

@MK-xc9to 6 месяцев назад

Its a good Plattform for virtual Machines of multible Users not so much as a single User Workstation , if you use watercoled GPUs that use only 1 slot you can put 8 GPUs in there , 8 Lanes of PCIe 5 is more than enough and thats only 64 Lanes , with Pro you get 128 Lanes .... , if you use the 96 Core you could have 8 virtual Workplaces with 8 Cores and one dedicated GPU each = with more than only one User Threadripper gets interresting . Most of the common Software will not utilise 64 or 96 Cores . There are still Users for Threadripper out there , those who normally would use the higher clocked Server Variants and now will use the OC able Threadripper instead .

I waited 9 months for the MSI WS WRX to use with my 5975wx, finally gave up after they told me on twitter the motherboard was never coming out. Been using the AsRock WRX80 Creator ever since. Also having crashing problems, haven't had time to resinstall windows, that's next I think.

@LBXZero 6 месяцев назад

If there is one suggestion I would give AMD, it is this. AMD, rebalance the naming scheme so the x900 segment is not crowded. Maybe reserve all of x900 to Threadripper. Maybe go hexadecimal and create an xA00 and xB00 tier.

@chiefjudge8456 6 месяцев назад

Threadripper 7000 is a MONSTER. Makes regular Ryzen and Intel Core look like cheap toys (and that's even with the 7980X being heavily memory bandwidth bottlenecked on TRX50 with 1 channel per 16 cores).

@JayzBeerz 6 месяцев назад

Just got a 5900X for $289.99. 12 cores 24 threads is still good for a workstation and some gaming if still on AM4 platform.

@thelaughingmanofficial 6 месяцев назад

Of course your 5900X is going to be better in gaming, it's a general purpose CPU, These Threadrippers are Workstation CPU's they're not going to do well in gaming. It's going to be better than your 5900X in Workstation tasks.

@andersjjensen 6 месяцев назад

That's really good bang for the buck at that price. I had the 5950X until about two months ago, and it ripped through software compilation like there was no tomorrow. The thing just was that that pesky little 7950X3D kept telling me it was looking for an owner who could put it through it's paces.... and eventually I caved... You should look into undervolting. My 5950X with a -30mV and a +200MHZ BPO consistently boosted to 5.05GHz, with an average of 4.8GHz during long compile jobs. And that was on air cooling.

@Anonymous______________ 6 месяцев назад

I do not understand how AMD can even classify these CPUs as HEDT based solely on their price. These are workstation class CPUs. Only a few years ago Intel's HEDTs cost slightly over 1,000+ dollars and anything more expensive where generally Xeons, suited for high-end workstations and not desktop/gaming rigs.

Its interesting to know that the NZXT Kraken AIO is not compatible with Threadripper. Steve you should have busted out a Noctua U14S-TR4-SP3 and showed how all those cores can be cooled by just air.
