Yeah, let's hope. :)
My personal hope and gut feeling is that Dell brings out some sweet TR workstations. Since they're already using them in their Alienware boxes, the step from there to a Precision workstation isn't usually that big.. If only they could come up with a working ECC solution -...
I've just started building an x299 system, with a 7940X that should arrive next week.
This is gonna replace my work setup which currently are two old Xeon servers (database and file server), and I'll also get rid of my current main workstation which is a 6700K. Replacing 3 systems with 1, I'm...
I expect slightly higher clocks (10% ?), hopefully a bit less power draw and a leaner TDP (165W?). I think the core count and pricing is going to remain the same for Pinnacle Ridge. But yeah: higher clocks and less power - that's what we need.
What I want is validated ECC at higher speeds than...
Did you read their Conclusion paragraph? They agree with you, as do I.
As for voltages on TR: I'm assuming TR has the same "issue" that Ryzen has sometimes when it just refuses to hit 4GHz unless you really abuse it. Others do 4.0 and even 4.1 with comparative ease. It seems both GamersNexus...
Gamers Nexus is testing the 7960X and 7980XE with focus on power and thermals, with interesting comparisons to Threadripper - both stock, overclocked & delidded. Since that's been an argument here lately, I advise you to check these charts - I find them very interesting. Stock numbers in...
And miss the entire holiday season? That's hardly an option.
I'm certain they're doing this to be able to sell Coffee Lakes during all of Q4, and also to reclam the main desktop performance crown and scare AMD back into the budget corner.
Given that the CPU die on the 12-18 cores is much larger, it would be logical that they have an easier time transferring heat through the IHS and to the cooler - right?
That'd certainly explain why they seem to clock so well without blowing up.
Anyway, it'll be fun to see the reviews once...
