Dang I didn't know they still had those. Where can I buy an ASCII machine?

You can't win.  The only winners are chinese farms running a  bagillion of them in a jungle with zero electricity costs.

 

Fun fact: intel had designed a chip to mine bitcoins, but realized it wouldn't even be economically worth it to deploy vs. low cost geogrophic competitors.

Apparently I forgot the /s.

ASCII is a character encoding standard.

ASIC is the bitcoin mining thing.

It's not a cut down die, if what I gathered is correct EPYC is 2 of these massive dies on a single PCB, that's one reason why the socket is so massive :)

For AMD, a die that big would be insanely costly. But 2 half size dies are actually a lot (less than half) cheaper to produce due to the way silicon wafers turn up defective, so it makes sense that they're pushing toward multi-die configurations.

i know this . EPYC 32 core is 4 8-core dies connected with infinity fabric . Thread-ripper would be 2 -8 core dies .

ASIC actually stands for Application Specific Integrated Circuit . It refers to any logic circuit that's not an FPGA . That includes stuff like gpu's , CPU's , SOC etc . It's not only bitcoin mining hardware specifically.

Man what to do with all those PCIe lanes is now the question, since ridiculous SLI configs are out.

three Vega cards, RAID cards, NVME SSDs, network cards

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

It's so amazing, number of lanes and not differentiate them for no reason too. Chip looks awesome, quite a socket :D

But you can't even fit that in a case so I'm not sure what the use case is where you'd have single socket but a bagillion pcie cards.

Custom commission one.

I was actually curious about that. Thanks!

 

I usually do my reasearch and figure out what stuff like that means but this time I just didn't have time.

It's one thing to read the word Threadripper on a web, but when the CEO said it from stage during Prey demo, she sounded genuinely stupid, like a child in adult form, bad name.

Thunderbolt 3, if you are on X99 already then sure, I haven't noticed.

Eypc can do that, it has 128 lanes of PCIe
