The fastest Dual-Socket-System in the World!

I trust this guy cause he looks like Jimmy Neutron

[ActuallyHardcoreOverclocking]

does the server board let you tune mem timings?

Also that post code thingy looks awesome!

Also any chance of E-powering the server boards?

[SilviAllDay]

you know. Just a casual 12k rig running Cinebench. xD

Wer von den deutschen Zuschauern ist auch hier um zu sehen was die Englisch-sprachigen Leute von unserem geilen Roman halten? :D

@der8aur - psu fans:

1) if you remove the fans from the PSUs, you then make a 'longer wire' for them. And then have them sit outside the novec solution, in free air. But still reconnect them back onto the fan headers inside the psu. That way they are free to rotate at their full speed.

2) Then replace (inside of the PSU) with your own fans, which you can power and control externally, independent of the PSU.

3) This is not as elegant as fooling it with a fake dummy fan signal. However for that, you need something to generate the dummy fan signal with. (for eample, an rpi nano + extra electronics)

AMD are trading blow after blow. It's fun to see them back in the game again :)

[larsjrgensen]

Impressed by the near perfect scaling compared to your single socket overclocked system.

AMD unlock the memory!
AMD what happened to the "Unlocked Unrestrained" mantra?

[StavrosAvramidis]

Threadripper 2 tease at the corner?? (shhhh)

[jupitersailing]

Roman reminds me of a badass Jimmy Neutron.

[grumpyoldman]

der8auer - is there any concern about the novec over time working its way into the liquid metal and displacing some of it as it changes to gas?

[enlightendbel]

Asus would be smart to work with you to get a bios for that thing that doesn't lock anything.

If you see how much change you can get out of a Threadripper and Ryzen system with some boosted memory speeds, oh lordy.

I hope you are in contact with them and they are interested. It's great advertising. Fast dual socket system that is faster than any quad socket system by far!

[lflyr]

Damn, those AMD EPYC cpu-s are gonna dominate the server market for years to come :). Bye bye Shintel, better luck next time when you actually start working on a completely new architecture from grounds up in real 14 nm technology and not that fake 14 nm ++++ that you try to pass as real when in fact it's partially 14 nm and partially 22 nm architecture based on Bloonfield 2009 and Sandy Bridge 2011 with all the hardware security bugs Meltdown/Spectre, overheating problems, nuclear power consumption and faulty inefficient Hyper-Thrading :).

[FullyBuffered]

This is really impressive stuff. C'mon AMD, please make dual socket Threadripper happen.

[TheBackyardChemist]

what if you reflashed the SPDs in the memory modules with higher clock speeds and tighter timings? possibly also more memory voltage?

[themurderbotfeed]

Its still so weird to me to see liquid running through a system outside of tubes, am I the only one?

[interlace]

Not even *TRYING* a tiny BCLK boost?? Man that could've made a difference in that score..

jk good job, man! :) AMD is definitely back!

[CheapSushi]

This is so minor but I'm just amazed that the PCB is black. I love that. Also does the BIOS allow you to RAID the RAM? I forget the exact term for this but it's an option on many Intel SuperMicro boards; there's 2 types of this. It duplicates the RAM content and might help considering how the memory controllers are on EPYC. I'm not sure if this would help or not in Cinebench. But anyway, you rock man. I always look forward to your videos.

EDIT: The term is called RAM mirroring (akin to RAID1) but there's another variant too I think it's called Memory Rank Sparing. You'll lose total RAM of course but there might be a small boost in performance of the RAM.

[martindarlington]

pushing the boundaries once more, good to watch, thanks.

[stanimir]

Congratulations, this is mighty impressive.
