I will write up the whole story as i have actually completed the project - now still at the ghetto stage with tubes hanging here and there, but the principle was checked. IT WORKS.
 
And regarding the flow rate and restrictions and couple-hundred € watercooling pumps - it all works with 90L/h flow using 32€ aquarium pump (Eheim Compact 1000 - old version). 
 
 
And just as a teaser please check the thermals after 14 minutes of Furmark GPU and Furmark's CPU burner running simultaneously...
 

Try to break the ycruncher world record. Dual epyc and terabytes of ram.

I still have been experiencing errors. I also have a low ppd for the hardware I am using. I will update after folding overnight.

This was an extremely poorly thought out video...like what was even the point of having the Cinebench test if you DIDN'T EVEN OVERCLOCK the AMD CPU??? You said that was the main reason that it would beat Intel's offering and then just refuse to do anything? I was expecting a repeat with it being overclocked but...NOPE...instead all we get is "I think that makes it the better value still"
 
THINKS??? How about you PROVE it's the better value?!?! What is the point of this video if you're not going to actually do anything to even justify your claims?
 
Here is what this shit video gives you:
Only does 3 tests...that's right, THREE!
Only does overclocking for two tests and doesn't even try to take the time to dial it in, just quick and dirty and that's all you get!
SINGLE STICK OF RAM...using that on Ryzen has been WELL documented as the best way to kneecap your CPU performance and especially iGPU performance at this point.
Doesn't even MENTION the Intel chip again after the Cinebench run, like what was even the point?
 
 
"Should I buy a $50 CPU?"
 
I STILL DON'T KNOW!!! Maybe if I only play R6 Siege and Tomb Raider and have no money. Lord only knows if I do anything else since there was literally zero effort put into this video...
 
Seriously LTT, step your damn game up...

The single stick of ram triggered me so much i went out and bought the bits and tested it myself.

Remove your PC parts and check your components, don't buy new parts before you pinpoint what the issue is.

Finally, a worthy successor to my post...
 
They weren't beans, and it wasn't an abacus, but...
 

 
(No, sadly that isn't my personal 128 bytes of core memory.)

This once was pretty decent 12core Server part for like 1k$. We had like 100 of them in our servers at work. But now: 5 bucks...

You can also buy used motherboard with more sata ports. It should cost similar to PCIE expansion card (I assume that your hardware is pretty old since it has only 3 sata ports - some old crap on via chipset maybe?).
 

i know its a pointless solution as you can use a SATA expansion card, but they actually make an adapter so you can plug any old 2.5 or 3.5" HDD into a USB, and it supplies the power and the signal, ive supplied a link below so you can get the idea

If something like that is attempted, I'd rather see a 6 x 2 configuration (24k x 16k ) , so you don't have black bars right in the center of your view
 

I will probably do a reinstall

You can also just use it for free without activating.

Do you need to have a registered copy of Windows? I know that at least Windows 10 runs fine without being registered.

I would LOVE a video where @LinusTechgoes to FreeGeek or something (Dumpster-diving, flea-market, thrift-store), and just goes completely nostalgia on stuff and reminisce about how cool this or that doodad was when it came out, I love whenever Linus gets sidetracked, so why not fill a whole video with it?

If you collab with FreeGeek, Linus can also help raise awareness of how we can reduce waste, by reusing and recycling things?  

Friendly reminder to never trust first party benchmarks because they are very often misleading to some degree. And yes, that is very much true for AMD as well. 
 
 
This seems like a really good chip, but I am starting to question who it is for. Servers will probably want to use EPYC, and at this price I can't see it ending up in many "prosumer" computers either. Workstations? If the processing needs are so high I'd hope the program offloads a lot of it to the GPU. If it can't do that I'd assume a renderfarm is used instead. 
I was screaming for more cores back when consumer and prosumer CPUs maxed out at 6 cores, but I think we have reached a point where more cores doesn't benefit us (and by us I mean people who aren't building servers, which is what EPYC is for). With the ever increasing prices I'm wondering if "more cores" is just an excuse to keep ramping up prices for what's considered "top of the line". It used to be 1000 dollars thst got you the best of the best. Now it's ~4000.

This ain't a gamer CPU. But if you get this encoding monster for 5x less than inferior Intel system, I'd say that's excellent value. And we're at point where AMD BIOS is mature enough to not really have any of those issues seen with first generation of Ryzen.
 
I just wish they'd also focus on gaming some more. Sure, give us moar cores, but there should be gaming series more focused on maximizing core clocks.

When it comes to hosting a MC server I have 2 options, either running it through my test bench, which features an fx-8350 which I can overclock if needed, and 24 GB RAM, and which will run nothing but the server, or run it on my normal PC, which has a Ryzen 3700X and 32GB RAM, but the server would have to share resources with the game itself, Discord, Chrome, etc. So which PC would run the server better?

Im going to see how the craigslist pans out

Building off of his comments about the environment and quality stuff that lasts a while, I'd love to see more videos about reusing and repurposing used enterprise hardware.   I have an old Dell R510 in my laundry room that makes a beast of a plex server. 

You guys should try to break the y-cruncher benchmark record. I seems possible with the hardware you guys have.

Ebay has a money back guarantee linus also made a video about this 
 

As long as people continue to think and act this way they'll get away with hundreds of builds they fry every year. QC should be uncompromising, warranty should cover all the damages caused by the unit.
