  1. ...I feel like that @tomshardware article could've made the point a little more clearly that the Ryzen 435G is just about equal in CPU performance to the 8600G with half the L3 cache and a 500 MHz slower boost clock on the same process node. that's the uplift moving from Zen 4 to Zen 5.

  2. #AMD #EPYC Turin 128 Core Comparison: #EPYC9755 "#Zen5" and the #EPYC9745 "#Zen5C" at 400W and 320W TDP
    Overall the AMD EPYC 9745 offered good performance relative to the EPYC 9755 with its full Zen 5 cores and higher TDP while offering quite a nice lead in performance-per-Watt across the many workloads tested. The EPYC 9745 is great choice for those concerned about maximizing the power efficiency of your EPYC 9005 series server build and/or limited to a maximum 400W TDP

  3. #Oxide plans new rack attack with #Zen5 #CPU, #DDR5
    Upcoming gear will include new compute blades powered by #AMD's #Turin #EPYC, boasting core counts of up to 192 cores and support for faster DDR5 6400 MT/s memory — big upgrade over comparatively glacial DDR4 3200 MT/s memory shipped in OG Oxide rack
    Cantrill says Oxide will offer GPUs at some point, but argues ompany has plenty of work left to do with regard to CPU, storage, and networking to keep it busy for now.

  18. #AMD’s #EPYC9355P: Inside a 32 Core #Zen5 #Server Chip, where per-core performance still matters
    AMD uses eight #CPU dies (CCDs) to house those 32 cores. Each #CCD only has four cores enabled out of the eight physically present, but still has its full 32 MB of L3 cache usable, a high cache to core count.

  22. Xbox new consoles are Dead On Arrival.

    - #XboxAllyX: $1,000
    - #XboxAlly: $600

    The $600 unit is basically a #SteamDeck with a price hike.

    The $1,000 is a unit that performs way worse than a laptop RTX 4050.

    ...And none of the plays Xbox console games! Are you serious!?

  23. Normally, I'd be a bit more paranoid with my 9950X, but looking at the build, the mounting of the Noctua NH-U9S, and the mainboard involved makes this more worry significantly less.

    Issues with the GMP build:

    1. The thermal paste (likely NT-H1 or NT-H2, good paste) is wedge shaped in application and distribution. This looks like uneven pressure across the contact patch and is Not A Good Thing(tm).
    2. The Asus Prime B650M-A WIFI II is a shitty board. Just because ASUS put their name on it doesn't make it good unfortunately. They run _hot_ and if you don't go into the BIOS and fix stuff then you're gonna have a bad day.
    3. Running a 9950X full bore is gonna pull around 220W at the CPU not including anything else. If the BIOS settings are "hot"/OCed by default, you can get some much bigger numbers with respect to power consumption/heat dissipation.
    4. The NH-U9S with 92mm fans is not gonna handle those loads. What should've been there was something like the NH-U14S. Hell, I'd contemplate going AIO as the cooler the CPU is, the better boost clocks you get. The case unfortunately will not fit any CPU cooler taller than 148mm which does limit CPU cooler compatibility...just spring for a wider case.
    5. Just a minor thing, but them DIMMs are tall bois. Also, air on consumer-grade boards comes in across those DIMMs instead of like the server-grade where the socket (and RAM) are rotated 90 degrees.

    Things that I don't like:

    1. The CPU should have throttled, period.

    Edit: Point 3 is weird and hard for me to articulate. The graph shows the 7950X (not the more power-hungry 9950X) only at 73C, but the clock speeds are absolutely horrible when compared to the other B650 boards. If the 9950X is running at relatively normal clocks then there's gonna be a power issue. If the 9950X is being hobbled by the motherboard, you get okay temps but the CPU is not running at full speed.
