Hello everyone... so long since my last post. Need advise and expertise from someone u can help me here. Office Computer for 3D and Rendering purposes. Asus Prime X399-A 8x16GB = 128GB HyperX Predator ref. HX3200C16D4/16GX Threadripper 2990wx (Tr4) PSU 1000W Air cooling - Master Cooler !...We do not overclock...! I have realized every time i deliver a more complex renderings calculations on this machine then it shuts off completely and no power button will work unless press that back psu power button to reboot all. Then i made some investigations and i found this RAM modules aren't listed in the asus mobo QVL list... Plus this mobo can`t even do the XMP profile to achieve slightly better speeds. (it simple wont boot or randomly freezes). So am asking for some help to find 2 solutions: A 100% compatibility 128GB ram for this Mobo+CPU (preferable G.Skill or Corsair) or Replacing the Mobo and hopefully that new mobo accepts this memory kits. Thanks a lot u will help me here so i can report to my "boss" and get new hardware parts so we can finish our projects. Best regards

A couple of weeks ago I bought completely new parts for a PC build. I must state that this is the first build I did by myself. One of the first things I noticed is that my 2990wx CPU has very high temperature - about 37-40C idle and 55ish when running a game. While doing an aida64 stress test the temperature goes even higher to 60+. Keep in mind that the maximum temperature of this CPU is 68C. I haven't done any overclocking. I made sure I have the latest version of BIOS. I tried changing the thermal paste but it seems like there is almost no difference at all. I am using a Cooler Master masterliquid ml360r rgb AIO which is specifically made for this CPU. The radiator of the AIO is positioned at the top of the case. All the fans are running of course and water can be heard running from the tubes so the AIO is definitely working. I have the latest drivers for everything. Could it be that my AIO is damaged in some way and not working properly? The only other thing that I can think of is the IHS not making good contact with the AIO, but honestly I screwed it well enough so really I don't think this is the issue. Thank you very much in advance for the help. Specs: OS: Windows 10 Pro, version: 10.0.18362 N/A Build 18362 Case: Thermaltake Level 20 GT RGB Plus E-ATX Full Tower CPU: AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX MB: ASUS ROG Zenith Extreme Alpha GPU: MSI GeForce RTX 2080 T Gaming X Trio Ram: Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 32GB(2x16GB) 3000Mhz CPU cooler: Cooler Master Masterliquid ml360 Rgb(TR edition) Storage: Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus TB PSU: Cooler Master V1200, Full Modular 80+ Platinum The thermal paste used at the moment is Thermal Grizzly's Kryonaut. For spreading method I used 9 small dots throughout the heat spreader accompanied by 4 big dots in the middle where the chips are.

Hello everyone, This is my first time posting on this forum after reading it for a while. I have a question. Do you believe upgrading from my existing Xeon E5-2696 V4 (all-core turbo of 2.8 Ghz with 22 cores) to a TR2 2990WX with max PBO would be worth it? I'm looking for significantly enhanced single threaded performance without losing my multi-tasking capability. Let me explain my workflow... I often have all of the following operating simultaneously: 1. Multiple instances of Adobe InDesign performing exports. (4 CPU threads nearly 24/7) 2. Periodic use of Photoshop. (1-40 CPU threads...large content-aware fills utilize 100% of my CPU for minutes at a time...though this is rare.) 3. Large scale resizing and processing of photos in bulk. (44 CPU threads for hours at a time) 4. I go through periods of extended Media Encoder usage for days, weeks, and even months of rendering. (When rendering 720p broadcast footage for clients the usage is only about 12 cores...4K I have seen use of all 44 threads during AE exports) 5. I monitor the InDesign exports in Explorer.exe (4+ CPU threads nearly 24/7) 6. Use of the workstation for everything from YouTube, bulk file transfers (10's of TBs), video editing, and soon to be VR work while having active renders on-going in the background. 7. I rarely need to exceed 70 GB of memory usage. The 2990WX limit of only 128 GB of ECC memory is plenty for me. I have considered the Intel I9-9980XE but the reviews are mixed when comparing to the 2990WX. While my existing CPU continues to function well it have a fairly low single threaded performance as it only operates at 2.8 Ghz when the all-core turbo is activated (which is nearly 24/7 as my CPU usage rarely drops below 20%). I suppose my question, when it comes down to it, is it actually worth it to upgrade at this time to either a 2990WX or even the I9-9980XE? (I know the 9980XE does not support ECC but I suppose I can live without it). I will appreciate your thoughts considering my workloads. Blessings!

Curent setup: CPU: 2990wx clocked to 3.7GHz Mobo: x399 aorus pro GPU: 2x 2080 asus gaming oc rtx (nvlink sli) RAM: 4x 2933Mhz 32gb Cooling for CPU: Hailea Ultra 1500 HC waterchiller 790W (GPU waterblocks Will be added) Block: XSPC Raystorm Neo TR4 Storage: 2x m.2 970 PRO 512gb (in raid) Powersupply: 1300W seasonic gold case: big tower phaentooks pro (without panels) Problem: I'm having bunch of problems overclocking the CPU to more than 3.7 and having it stable. IF I set it to more then 3.8 and run stress tests the PC will shut off. All the temperatures are great only one is really troubling me. The temp IRF IR 35201 when running aida 64 extreme can go to 115C and above after running for only 7min (The CPU Tctl is max 67C and Tdie is max 40C) The PC is in an airconditioned server room with a 2 120mm on top, 3x 4500 40x40 fans on top of VRMs, 120mm on the back of the mobo, 140mm on back and front and the case is open. Am I experiencing limitations of the motherboard or is there any solution for this? The PC is used for rendering in VRAY. Thanks in advance

I will start with the Hardware I have and then explain what I want to do with it. CPU: AMD Threadripper 2990WX (stock) RAM: 64GB ECC Memory (oc from 2666 to 3200) GPU: x1 EVGA GT 710 (for unraid), x2 GTX 1070ti (for gaming vm's) MOB: Gigabyte X399 Aorus Xtreme SSD: x1 Samsung Pro 850 256GB, x3 Samsung 860 EVO 256GB M.2: x3 Samsung 970 Pro 512GB NVMe SSD PSU: EVGA SuperNova 1600W T2 RAID: MegaRaid Controler with x6 WD Gold 10TB HDDs (CPU, RAM, x2 1070ti are watercooled by EKWB Gear) My goal with this build is to have 2 Gaming VM's, 1 Rendering, Number Crunching and Streaming VM, and 3 smaller VM's to host game servers on (eg. Minecraft, Factorio etc) I would like the break down to go something like this... - 32 Threads, 20GB Ram, for Streaming and Rendering PC (on one of the NVMe drives)- 8 Threads, 10GB Ram, 1070Ti for first gaming machine (on one of the NVMe drives)- 8 Threads, 10GB Ram, 1070Ti for second gaming machine (on one of the NVMe drives)- 4 Threads, 6GB RAM, for Factorio Server (on one of the EVO 860 SSD)- 4 Threads, 6GB RAM, for Mincraft Server (on one of the EVO 860 SSD)- 4 Threads, 6GB RAM, for another game server (on one of the EVO 860 SSD)- 4 Threads, 6GB RAM, GT 710 for unraid + file server (Cache drive on a half partition on the PRO 850 SSD, If at all possible)[I use the other half for a windows install that boots the whole pc together] - And the MegaRaid Controler supplying a Raid 6 drive to the Streaming and Rendering PC, or all of them if possible. I know it should be possible and ive watched some videos on how to get started but nothing seems to cover the depth of my build. Im also open to any suggestions on how to make this more efficient if it can be. Any help will be much appreciated -
It has been over five years since my last epic “Bucket List” build so it was time for an upgrade! After over 3 months of designing, planning, and building, “Bucket List 2.0” is complete! The “Bucket List 2.0” theme is based on my 2015 C7 Corvette. The complete build log is HERE. Full Image Gallery HERE This build will be used for gaming as well as video and photo editing!

Hi all, I will be doing intensive calculations involving black holes, and my poor FX-8350 is taking over 5 weeks at 100% load to finish each one and it is getting pretty ridiculous. I am going to use hopefully a 2990wx (or one of the new TR if they offer anything good!) and probably the MSI creation. As for RAM I do not have any left over budget for RAM but I do have 4x4GB 2133 ECC from somebody else's PC they have donated to me that I will use until I can save up to get some. Do you guys recommend 8x16 or 4x32 or anything else for Java? I don't understand what quad channel means entirely! Thank you

I have a Corsair RM650 and am wanting to upgrade from my FX-8350 to the 2990wx. The motherboard I am looking at (the MEG creation) has 2x 4+4 CPU connectors. My PSU at the back has 3 identical ports labelled "6+2 PCI-E & 4+4 CPU" but has no indication as to which is which. The total usage of my system (250W for CPU + 200W for GPU) means I will not necessarily need an upgraded PSU for power consumption alone. My question is can I plug a second 4+4 CPU cable into one of those ports to go to the motherboard? I currently have 1 spare as my Strix 970 only uses 1. I also tried the connectors and they both fit in each of the 3 ports on the PSU, making me feel like another CPU power cable can go in there! Also secondly, can I run the CPU at stock settings with just 1 CPU power connector into the motherboard until I order another CPU power cable if I need to at all? I will not be manually overclocking because I want the increased single core performance from PB and PBO. Thanks in advance

I am looking to build a new desktop using a 2990wx with 128gb ram. The workload consists of running multiple instances of a program in parallel. My main question is if this is a good fit for my workload. I am currently running 2 other computers doing the same workload. ~90% CPU usage and 56GB RAM on a 1950x. (42 instances) ~90% CPU usage and 31GB RAM on a 1700x. (28 instances) I would ideally want about 40-60% more performance out of using a 2990wx for a new system. System price before cpu and ram: 800€ Total price with a 2950x and 64GB: 2050€ Total price with a 2990wx and 128GB: 3150€ Basic config: Case: Inter-Tech 4u 4129N +some rails PSU: 750w RMx GPU: A spare GTX 680 that I had left over Heatsink: Enermax LiqTech TR4 240 Motherboard: ASRock x399 Taichi SSD: 970 EVO m.2 What I would like to work out is if I would have issues with the memory bandwidth if I used a 2990wx. From what I have read, that is the main cause of workloads not scaling as well. Any other suggestions for the hardware would also be welcomed. A normal heatsink could be nice but it would need to fit in to a 4u case. I also have not looked to see if there are better motherboards out since gen 2 threadrippers were released.

I have look and my brain hurts. From what I can tell from some threads is that I need all 8 dims full but can’t find an answer for speed or cas/cl. i could really us just a simple answer. Being used for rendering in 3Ds Max V-Ray, point cloud registration and point cloud alga-rhythmic decemation (automated redundant point reduction).

Are there any problems with 2990 Wx + mATX x399 taichi? Has anyone tried it? (non OC) Thank you -
Hello, I'm trying to finish my workstation build and I'm having trouble choosing the ram for it. I'm using a Threadripper 2990wx and MSI X399 MEG Creation, I'm hoping to get 4 sticks of 16gb for a total of 64gb so I have the possibility of expanding to 128gb in the future if needed. Also, I would like to get 3200Mhz memory ideally but I would be okay with 3000Mhz. I've looked at the list of compatible ram in the MSI website but I'm having a hard time finding those for a decent price online here in Canada: https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/MEG-X399-CREATION#support-mem-17 I don't really care if the ram is RGB or not altho if its similar price I would rather get RGB. If anyone could help me with some advice or if anyone knows of any good deals for ram that will work with my Threadripper I would be very grateful. Many thanks in advance! -
Hello, first timer here. So I am currently trying my hardest to overclock 2990WX, so far unsuccessfully. So what I am having issues, is that when I turn on AMD's Precision Boost Overdrive, it overclocks my cpu maybe to 3.1-3.2Ghz, that is it. when I open up Ryzen Master utility, it shows that I am limited with PPT of 250W and it does not allow me to turn it up higher, same with TDC, it shows 100% and it does not let me go higher. Temps are only around 60 degrees, PSU is a 750W gold, there is no beefy GPU, only a 1050, running the display, windows updates all done, windows power profile is on high performance etc. I am all out of ideas. I have seen some guys opening some limits up in bios, my MSI x399 gaming carbon bios does not seem to have any option where I can open up the power envelope. Right now it seems that it is just holding back with the power it is giving to the cpu. I have doublechecked that the 2 extra connectors are connected to the mobo, though I dont know how to check if the psu is working correctly and delivering power well enough. I am just out of ideas, there is no info on google either, maybe some of you has an idea, what the issue might be. Thank you in advance for any advice!

So, I will post here my month long back and fourth with MSI support, you can see just how bad their support is and maybe in the end you would be even able to help me. As a claimer, this post will be VERY long, so I do not blame you if you don't go through it Here we go: ME: MSI: ME: ME: ME: MSI: ME: MSI: ME: MSI: ME: MSI: ME: ME: MSI: ME: MSI: ME: MSI: ME: MSI: MSI ME: MSI: ME: MSI: ME: MSI: ME: MSI: ME: MSI: ME: MSI: ME: MSI: ME: AND THAT IS WHERE WE ARE....

Should I buy the AMD 2990WX just because it is cheaper and performs 53% better than Intel's flagship? And even if I buy one, will it game better than any other (Intel) CPUs? I would not like move to AMD and I have been a loyal customer to Intel and don't have any AMD CPU (have a GPU though) . This shall be my first time buying an AMD CPU. Do you think it is worth buying a 32 cores top of the line work station CPU for gaming, Streaming, content creation and some AI programming? (Gaming and Streaming come first! )

I'm getting a PC built for me and I'm trying to figure out which CPU would be the best suited for my workflow. Speed and performance is getting to be a concern for me as I'm finding myself spending more time waiting for my computer to stop lagging than I am actually working. My time is split 60% Photoshop (I'm currently working on a 13gb .PSB that's a composite of several Hasselblad files) and 40% Cinema4D with both modelling and rendering (no animation). I've heard mixed information.. Photoshop is single core and benefits from higher clock speed less cores, but I've also heard that CPU clock speed shows diminishing returns beyond 4.2ghz. To my understanding, the way the boost clock on the 2990wx works work put some, not all, of the cores to 4.2ghz while the rest work at 3ghz. Will the new AMD Threadripper 2990wx be a good fit?

I am trying to decide on parts for a new workstation to be built in a rack enclosure at my desk. It will be running a very specific workload (similar to using a lot of vmware instances, but not actually that). I am running multiple instances of a program that takes 2 - 2.5gb of ram and on a Ryzen 7 1700x, and takes about 2-4% cpu usage. My goal is to scale this up on a system using a 1950x, 2970wx or 2990wx. So far I have just been estimating a similar per core performance to the 1700x. With a 2990wx it should therefore be able to run about 80-90 instances, which would require 200gb ram. The end goal is to run as many as possible for the cheapest price. I am expecting to use about 3500 - 6500€ on this build. I have not heard of anyone else using 256gb ram on a threadripper and would like to hear other peoples opinions on it. I think it depends quite a bit on the motherboard and ram that I choose. CPU: 1950x - 2990wx Ram: 128 - 256GB PSU: RM750x GPU: 1080 strix SSD: 970 Evo m.2 (500GB) Heatsink: Enermax Liqtech 240mm or Noctua NH-U14 Mobo: ASRock Taichi I expect relatively low GPU usage most of the time and may just use a spare 970 to start with. Any other motherboard recommendations would be welcomed.
