Discussion Zen 5 Speculation (EPYC Turin and Strix Point/Granite Ridge - Ryzen 9000)

I feel you, and respect you for what you do. That's just not what I'm looking for. The platform costs alone for Epyc/TR are insane compared to AM5. I'm good with 16C/32T, 64GB memory per machine. Tried to do 145ppt power limit. Max all core 4.7ish, 145w package power. But I need speed, so I run...

Discussion Zen 5 Speculation (EPYC Turin and Strix Point/Granite Ridge - Ryzen 9000)

That was all in the plan bro. Eagerly waiting for Zen 5, I'm lurking and reading. Not even looking at Intel. This "farm" can encode 2000~ 24min videos to AV1 1080p per day. A 30%+ MT perf increase at similar power? Dang I'm drooling. These beasts all do min 5.1Ghz all core MT encoding 24/7.

Discussion Zen 5 Speculation (EPYC Turin and Strix Point/Granite Ridge - Ryzen 9000)

Agreed. I built four 7950x systems. In the end still cheaper than a Epyc/TR and much faster overall when the encoding fps is combined vs a single 64 core machine because of faster clocks.

8GB VRAM not enough (and 10 / 12)

Surely those hololive girls are going crazy over this card. 😀

Question Cpu usage question

Handbrake can do up to 8 simultaneous encodes within one instance. I have to run 3 parallel just to max out a single 7950x. All this in AV1.

8GB system DRAM in 2023

@aigomorla Going OT, but why not use AV1? I'm getting really good results and since you have a 4000 series Nvidia it supports hardware decoding. I have better quality then H265 and the files are smaller, using SVT-AV1 in Handbrake.

Question Zen 4 builders thread

I thought so too. The advertised allcore is 5.2. Is this close to a golden sample? All settings are stock except for XMP on a 360 aio. Both running Windows Server 2022.

Question Zen 4 builders thread

Built 2 7950x rigs recently for AV1 encoding. Comparing to my 5800x desktop, they've been really, really good. At preset 8 and QP 34 the 5800x totals around 90fps and the 7950x about 280-330fps, despite having double the cores it's over 3x as fast. Must be the zen3 vs zen4 architecture, cache...

Question Bent pins on brand new Gigabyte X670 AM5 socket?

Elaborate? I spent over 10k in the last 2 weeks.

Question Bent pins on brand new Gigabyte X670 AM5 socket?

It's nice to know that you're getting a new product when you actually order one. Amazon has been dropping the ball lately and I've been extremely disappointed. I've ordered two new corsair h150i capellix coolers in the last two weeks and both I've received refurbished units. Not only that but...

Question Bent pins on brand new Gigabyte X670 AM5 socket?

Yes I agree. The thing about motherboards in all my years building is that the boxes aren't shrink wrapped. The only thing keeping them looking like a new product is that tape that seals the static electric bag.

Question Bent pins on brand new Gigabyte X670 AM5 socket?

Yes I bought it from Amazon. I have bought a new one and since returned the broken board for a refund.

Question Bent pins on brand new Gigabyte X670 AM5 socket?

Hey guys I am building a new Ryzen 7950X rig and finally received all my parts. First time with AM5 here. While I was about to install the CPU I noticed the socket looked a bit strange. It appears there could be 2 bent or missing pins on the socket, I'm not too sure but don't wanna take a...

I've been using Steam since the beta with what was it CS 1.6? And I've never even seen the survey pop up.
