"If you're on anything older than a 3647..."
Hmm...
I have an IBM x3650M3, lol
Wendel: "This is 8 cores. There's only 8 cores on this processor."
Me: "Well ok. Doesn't sound that strange."
Wendel: "And yet it's over $2500 US."
Me: 👁👄👁
I have a 3800x that does almost 5ghz. I could make so much money selling it to a project manager!
@@ThatKoukiZ31 That 32MB L3 cache per core and octa channel memory is, unfortunately, going to make short work of your 5GHz :P
@@andersjjensen haha yeah I was just joking I know theres tons of reasons the server chips are better as servers
@@andersjjensen not to mention the max 128gb ram is utterly useless in the intended use case for these.
@@morosis82 not necessarily.
How we got from faceless, behind the monitor Wendell, to modern day charismatic Wendel the excellent presenter? One of the greatest transformations in TH-cam history.
He was always charismatic, simply from the shadows
I remember Wendell being a forehead and pair of eyes above the monitors like that neighbour in home improvement
Your profile picture is a hilarious contrast 😄
Now we just need a workstation with the 32c version.
Thank you, Wendell for choosing better bg music for this video! :D
Finally got a dev server approved with a 72F3 in it. It's going to be great for MS SQL. Next thing is to convince management that we need computers such as these in our production environments :)
Fun server story, i was decommissioning a an old VDI server today and found a 2TB P4600 in it that i did not know was there , did not even have a datastore on it and .... and half a terabyte of ram . That is going in the Infrastructure teams private VDI server right away , better than the fusion io that's in there :P
I can see that 8 core being super handy as a PRTG server. In big installs a VM just cannot handle it.
If I were you:
"What P4600? What RAM? No idea what you're talking about..."
;)
Nice and ethical. Turning unintentional incompetence in hardware tracking into outright theft. A shining example for all the ITInfra engineers out there.
@@Nkvik And you're doing wonders for our community by enforcing the stereotype of being completely dry and failing to recognize simple humor.
Any other tech TH-camr: "This is an 8 core Epyc processor, why does this exist?!"
Me:"Yeah, why?!? That's stupid!"
Wendel:"This is an 8 core Epyc processor, why does this exist?"
Me:"Tell me more, please."
Per core licensing and storage applications. One is for reducing costs, and The other needs a lot of connectivity.
1:26 I can feel my thumbs starting to hurt just from looking at that.
Why does the 72F3 exist? Because Fleecem McShaftem Inc. like to charge their customers for enterprise software licenses on a 'per core' basis. Even for entry level software.
You had me for a second but it passed soon, I can't afford it so whatever. Greetings from the Haswell Land here...
me on FX8350 bulldozer.
I can see this being very cost effective for small businesses
Almost immediately this video started I was thinking I would love one of those... 8 cores but 128 PCIe lanes. Nice.
That just screams storage storage storage to me.
@@andljoy that's 32 NVMe drives, isn't it? 🤯
@@benjaminoechsli1941 64 full pcie x4 gen4... Imagine raid and speeds. Only limit I think is IF speed.
@@MrWaylander _Exactly._ That's right where I want the bottleneck to be.
The clickbait worked on me. Thanks for making it clear right off the bat lol.
My gf's lab is using these types of Epyc-based systems for biomedical image processing and such. Cool stuff!
The absolute performance advantage over Intel is astonishing. The performance per watt advantage over Intel is.... every kind of a disaster for a company who said "as we continue our market leadership" in a recent press reel....
Thanks Wendell, always nice to see why/how you should use the lower count server CPU's
So any chance you will do a colaboration with Patrick @ STH ?
I need a dual 73F3 system with 8TB of RAM so I can open a million chrome tabs for my college homework research
"Research". I can only assume Fernando is a man of culture.
You better get a 16xNVMe RAID 0 to back that up... you know how Chrome likes to hit the swap file no matter what you do :P
Now I want the 72F3 for a gaming rig. 8 cores with 32MB L3 cache each.. come at me old DX11 single core titles! :P
Up to 4tb 8 channel ram... Could install all the games to ram disk. Now that's what I want to see
The 8 cores have a total of 32MB of L3, not 32MB each core. And the 72F3 is basically a 5800X glorified with huge amount of supported ram and PCIe lanes. The 75F3 is the real deal or the 24 core one.
72F3 has 8 chiplets with one core each. It has cache for days.
@@duckrutt what? Does it? That's actually insane
@@duckrutt and actually at some point you don't get any benefit from a large cache for just one core
Thoughts on a Epyc model for a domain controllers for a 75k user / 35k computer domain? I'm introducing Epyc to the first time in an all team blue Datacenter for A few physical DCs to back the majority VM DC environment. I realize practically any of them would work but bang for buck is always good and a smooth experience here opens the door to bigger opportunities later when we look to upgrade VM farms.
Would have liked to hear your take on AMDs weird pricing for their F-SKUs. The 16-core model is more expensive than the 24-core, and I can't find any spec that would justify it.
Benchmark some games with it? Epyc 72F3 vs 5800X with the maximum and minimum clock frequency of the 5800X (set via the CPU-scheduler) the same? Just to see what the impact of those extra memory-channels is that would be fun. The 5800X gets 3600 MT/s memory with ridiculously tight timings, the 72F3 gets 3200 MT/s memory but with 4 times the channels. The nerd in me is curious about this.
Is the F series also recommended for pure number crunching scientific computing that doesn't quiiiite scale to 64 cores, or for the price should one stick with a 7543? (Let's say license cost is zero for arguments sake)
Hmmmmmmm my next Minecraft pc is gonna be amazing
I'm actually curious how many players it could support on a minecraft server.
I went with AMD EPYC 7371 16-Core CPU's for VMWare few years back because of the clock speed at the time.
love me some clock speed on a server with big memory
These might be the same with new upcoming Threadrippers.
It's cute to see some guys in the comments saying they can match the performance with a 5800X
What's this Toshiba CPU that keeps beating the 72F3 in the benchmarks?
Yeah, I also wanna know
It's not a CPU. I don't know why it shows up in that benchmark but the Toshiba kxg60znv1t02 is an NVMe drive, not a CPU.
Have you ever encontered the Epyc 7R32?
5:15 - Ok I'll say shut up right there, Node is one of the best tools we've got... Ever tried using PHP?
I mean being able to remote into the thing, have it stored in the rack etc. is nice and all - but if you don't absolutely need ECC, it would make a lot of sense to slap a water block on Chagall Threadripper and enjoy even higher single thread performance right?
Really depends on your use case. Personal workstation/home server, go Threadripper. Enterprise server - it's a different set of factors. How much memory you want in it for one thing, 1TB+ of memory for 8 cores isn't an unreasonable thing - especially in a two socket system with 16 cores. How much storage you want to directly hang in the box and how many PCIe lanes/iops you want to push through it.
Then there is the whole server chassis thing. Redundant power supplies, hot swap fans, is the hardware and CPU designed to be run 24/7 under load, etc. How important is uptime to you? It is more than just being able to remote into it and have it in a rack, what's the cost of maintaining it for you and the impact of it being down. When you start looking at 10, 100, 1000 of these, these stop being nice to have features and become must have so you don't have a fleet of engineers keeping them running and the amount of power and cooling you are looking at.
There is kind of a vague line I've seen in small shops that can use consumer/prosumer stuff , maybe because each box only effects one user - lots of power, relatively low costs. Other side of the line your business grows and suddenly extra headroom in storage, memory, enterprise reliability (especially say if now its half a dozen people who stop work if it's down) when it stops trying to get the most raw power out of the price and other factors to the business outweigh the initial outlay.
The stock price...That is what the F is up.
for some reason I want to run seti@home classic benchmark on one of these.
aaawwww man... where's the link the the SPACE DATA video??? i dont wanna have to search for it (yes, I AM that lazy lol)
This might be the best processor for making the most expensive Minecraft Multiplayer Server with plugins money can possibly buy 😅
Any way you could do a video on how to turn DOCP on for an asrock rack x570 board lol? I gather there's only manual settings it seems quite hard. Otherwise my memory is running at 2133Mhz for a 5900x. Not ideal.
I am running 2 servers and would to test as you do, Could you provide links to them?
How about overclocking 7313p for a workstation.!
Some kind soul who can help me find the video he mentions, where they "processed space data"? :)
@12:44 y u make Dell logo sads? :-(
At 8 cores, shouldn't that CPU clock at least in the 4.8GHz all core range?
It's optimized for different things, like power usage and bandwidth, over pure clock speed. Even at 8 cores, these could probably move far more data around than a desktop part. Also, the common way to make these is to use defective chips. Laser off the bad cores, and you have more thermal headroom and cache per core.
I want these for my SQL Servers
180 W on 8 cores, for 4.1 GHz all core, my 5800x achieves 4.55+ GHz on all cores with a much lower power output, is the i.o. die taking up half of the power budget ?
Your 5800x doesn't support 4TB of memory, among all the other benefits. Don't compare home-grade with server grade. Run a big SQLDB on your 5800x/32MB cache/128GB RAM and see how that goes against this - 256MB cache, 4TB RAM, 200+ GB/sec of memory bandwidth vs your 51GB/Sec.. Are you beginning to understand the differences?
@@promethbastard dont correct me on a comment that you have clearly not understood.
@@apolloaerospace7773 Too late buddy! Logically though isn't it obvious that the larger cache (256 vs 32) would also be a contributing factor and not just the IO die? You technically answered your own question but failed to take into the account the extra cache using a little more power as well. The IO has a lot more to do in an Epyc CPU than in a Ryzen CPU. Hello PCIE lanes, hello memory addressing, etc etc.
@@promethbastard the question is, how much power does it take, once again read before write.
It's likely it does use significantly more, but also tdp is such an arbitrary number I would count on either until measured under the intended workload.
so, its a cpu for unraid?
Have you evern thrown a DIMM in the garbage 1:27 and tried to fit the plastic case in the server? LOL
8:30 SSD vs CPU benchmarks? is this the new meta?
What? Compiling absolutely benefits from more threads. If it doesn't you're likely using an outdated compiler or crappy config. Modern compilers can scale very well even up to 128 threads. Well I misunderstanding you?
You missed the Node.JS/JavaScript reference... It's all single threaded.
A surprising number of web platforms don't scale as well as you'd hope. Especially when it comes to things like test suites. Heck, Python is inherently single threaded, and multiprocessing comes with a few caveats.
"4 generations of performance" ... That depends too much on the generational changes. That is not a linear comparison. A little too vague. Not a good evaluation criteria!
AMD at it again, stabbing the wounded animal that is Intel.
While the crowd is cheering...
How well can it run a Minecraft server?
These CPUs are _Epyc as F_
The lowest binned Zen 3 cores apparently go to 72F3.
No mention of the absurd amount of L3 cache the 72F3 has?
Hi Wendell! What program did that output 6:53 belong to?
I believe it's the phoronix-test-suite
Also known as "Open benchmarking" , a specific collection not a generic term.
Nice beamspring keyboard
Oh is this 60 fps?
Please father hissmas bring me a 7443P I've been very good and deserve the best computer crystal
Computer crystal is pretty accurate lol
Man I want real ECC memory for my main home machine,(reliability, not gaming) but the price of these server CPUs and MBs... ouch. (Used is ok, but most servers don't get cycled out until they are really well used/end of life and they still ask too much for what it is.)
Ryzen supports ECC in certain motherboards. It's not official, but they didn't arbitrarily remove the capability.
I have 64GB ECC on my 3900X in an ASRock X470D4U.
@@morosis82 "supports ECC memory" is not the same as actually using the ECC. Can you confirm that you are getting the error checking and correcting function? Last I checked(been a while) consumer Mboards that "support" ECC sticks only physically accept them but the ECC function is disabled so they function as normal RAM.
@@mytech6779 The Ryzen memory controller doesn't 'officially' support it, but AMD don't disable it and leaves it up to the MB manufacturer. Some do, some don't, my X470D4U server board does. At least, it's recognised as ECC and I have the bits set up, haven't had an issue with errors so difficult to say whether it's really working.
@@morosis82 Yeah I don't quite know how to test for it either, I need to get back into the loop.
I just use my desktop more like a server with up times of months and a few uses that are less tolerant of data errors.
I also get at least ten years from a build and then downgrade it to a secondary machine for another 5 -10 years, as certain hardware components age electrical errors can become more probable.
In the off chance that I really need big speed for something I could rent time from a service like AWS.
DDR5 will have on chip ECC, when it comes to consumer grade hardware. Not as fancy as true ECC, but that will at least protect against dodgy memory chips if that's what worries you
Wow, what's with the nodejs mockery?
Nodejs is great, but it does feel like one of those buzzword packed tech sometimes.
It's great for those things for which it's great.
pcie lanes quad channel and true quad pcie 4 support thats why.
4 x 6900xt's can run off a threadripper.
"F" to USB PORTS
Just a casual 32MB of cash per core
F for the respekt and _efngagement_
Let the intel-ing begin!
Pre-video Prediction: The F stands for "FUCK Intel"
What are the scientist researching though? How to ethically reduce population to "under 500 million" ?
I TOLD YOU LOW POWER MICROWAVES test it you can bring back dead chips ive done it.
entry lvl epyc , hmmm
16k at like 200+fps
Uhm.... Storage servers?
leet price!
Algorithmic traders. ;-)
no, bad L3 maybe
If AMD puts V-cache on these things that's gonna get added to the license cost right? "Free" performance can't go unpunished.
failed 3 cores
DEEP FEILD !v
i take a 16 core if you move it to Threadripper bump the speed 4.7Mhz
But you also only get half the amount of L3 per core, half the memory channels, half the PCIe lanes and a maximum of 256GB memory. Threadrippers make excellent workstations... but are mediocre server CPUs. I mean, they only barely beat Intel server CPUs. Who wants that?!? :P
That sucker clocks higher than my (undervolted) 4790K.
i mean 4790k isn't exactly the latest and greatest and even if it did clock higher the IPC just isn't comparable
@@Radovanslav It's the latest and greatest for me. I just got it last month, upgrading from FX 6300.
It just tickled me of the clock difference and I wanted to leave a comment to help the channel, so that's what I shared.
This wins in performance per watt for my usage though, so, yay?!?! XD
It's great to have a server/desktop comparison like this on occasion to remind you that "fast" in one field is not necessarily so in another.
@@ChrispyNut Great upgrade dude! I did the same upgrade back in 2016 on my little brother PC. From FX6300@4,4GHz to i7 4790K@4,6GHz with an RX480 4Go. I tested it on Overwatch and PUBG, with the same settings I got 2x more fps! It was INSANE!!!
Little brother still runs today that PC and he is starting to learn Blender on it, and he still game Farcry 5/Dirt Rally sometimes, runs like a charm!
The PC got awesome 16Go of DDR3 2133MHz Corsair Dominator GT, but I suppose it will probably be soon not enough if he starts to make huge things on Blender... Still a great 1080p gaming PC, and I don't think it will loose that much value considering the current market.
@@Mister-Tea Yea, The CPU was frustratingly weak for the R9 290X. Unfortunately I was wrong to think the Mobo had died when it was the PSU and in the months between Rig dying and getting funds for replacements, 2 of 4x8GB DIMMS died (possibly connected to rig death), which mostly defeated the purpose staying DDR3 due to the quantity I had (for Cities Skylines Assets).
Now to decide whether to plump for 2400 memory and later flip remaining 2x8GB @ 1600 (C9) for 2x8GB 2400 (C12 IIRC).
Currently deciding whether to sell 290X now, while prices are still a little silly and I'm not playing the only GPU intensive game I care about, to then get ram and GPU together, later, cheaper.
The toils of the educated poor. :-D
Having more cores was randomly chosen as a way to improve performance of chips when chip designers were unable to do anything else. It's not necessarily a good way to even expect processes to function, although programmers have somewhat adapted to it. There are several other ways to advance the capabilities of a chip, for example, getting IPC improvements is one and there are people out there who're designing chips around this principle. However, I believe that the frequency improvements that I can get with my hardware will outcompete anything else. For an average consumer, I'd say that my products will change your mind on your perception of high core count.
More cores were not randomly chosen. It was the only avenue left that offered significant performance gains with any feasible technology. Originally they thought they were going to just keep building faster and faster CPUs (like 8 GHZ+) but physics said no. Die shrinks did not keep pace with what they were expecting from straight up speed boosts.
So your saying this is for PHP websites. It's all about that single thread pref.
Being that I use PHP (Installing 8.1 beta 2 now) and SQLite seems what I would need to make that fly is the 8 Core and an Optane Drive to put the database on.
sqlite will never "fly"
So my saying what?
First
SQL is trash, M$ is trash. STOP USING IT!
You said: “it’s a great time to be alive.“ Seems to me that anyone who says this when talking about CPU performance might want to re-examine their life goals. Quickly.
You must be fun at parties.
This is his *livelihood,* dude. This _is_ a great time to be alive.
After a decade of Intel's stagnation... yeah, it's actually nice that we can get shit moving again.
It's not just CPU performance though. It's platform capability. It is a great time to be alive for people who's productivity relies on fast computing.
@@morosis82 True. It is kind of mind blowing how fast computing capabilities are evolving.
@@benjaminoechsli1941 You are absolutely correct. Wendell (his name?) is a national treasure. He does unbelievably great, thorough work on these subjects that other technology reviewers usually can't even come close to. I'm just teasing him a bit - with great affection. Besides, the more comments on his videos, the more the TH-cam algorithm will be likely to give his videos (well-deserved) prominence.
