Posted May 17, 2018 Alright so after seeing the Blender performance with Intel Optane in the latest Ltt upload, I was wondering if it would be possible to do this with my Ryzen 7 1700x build. Because of the high polymodels I create within Blender eats up my 16gb of 3066mhz of ddr4 when working on the models and rendering. So I would like to know if it is even possible to use Optane in the way shown on x370 or if it would be better to get an Nvme drive to use as a ramdisk...

Optane is currently only available on Intel systems, to the best of my knowledge. Main PC: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X • Noctua NH-D15 • MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk • 2x8GB G.skill Trident Z Neo 3600MHz CL16 • MSI VENTUS 3X GeForce RTX 3070 OC • Samsung 970 Evo 1TB • Samsung 860 Evo 1TB • Cosair iCUE 465X RGB • Corsair RMx 750W (White) Peripherals/Other: ASUS VG27AQ • G PRO K/DA • G502 Hero K/DA • G733 K/DA • G840 K/DA • Oculus Quest 2 • Nintendo Switch (Rev. 2) Laptop (Dell XPS 13): Intel Core i7-1195G7 • Intel Iris Xe Graphics • 16GB LPDDR4x 4267MHz • 512GB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD • 13.4" OLED 3.5K InfinityEdge Display (3456x2160, 400nit, touch). Got any questions about my system or peripherals? Feel free to tag me (@bellabichon) and I'll be happy to give you my two cents.

Posted May 17, 2018 Optane appears as a regular NVMe SSD. So you could get one, add it to a spare M.2, create a partition on it and move your Windows swap file there. The only Intel only limitation is if you want to use it to accelerate another drive.
