Hi Linus! I work for Thermo Fisher Scientific and we use those chillers for multiple instruments. For one of them it's to cool down a Peltier cooler that cool down a detector to -45c. We simply keep the detector under dry nitrogen or argon and that stop condensation. You should give that a try!
I'm pretty sure they have a tig welder there so they should have an argon bottle on hand. A simple cardboard box with taped seams would work fine for a purge chamber.
@@piroblaster I'm a pharmaceutical stainless steel welder, it doesn't take much to get a good purge. If they seal it off good, once it's purged it should only take like 5-10 cfh flow rate to keep the purge.
Looks like I need to get an upgrade to this 96 Core beast....got any spare? Edit: Thankyou for the mention. I nearly fell off my chair and spilt my Tea 😊 BTW, my PC is also Tea cooled so that makes a "huge" difference 😅👍
I did such a loud HA! when they said they were gonna try Cities 2, and then even louder when they said you provided the city! Cause who other than TH-cam's premier CS creator? Love to see it!
Thank you so much to Linus & team for putting our Talon thru even more than its usual paces, and congrats on setting new world's records! It warms our hearts to see you used it for what we would want to use it for ourselves: gaming.... I mean 'playtesting', as this is obviously a Game Development system for serious folks (that will crush an Unreal Engine compile)! Thanks for including us in such a fun project! 😄
Yeah for sure. It would have been so hard to continue to enjoy being creative whilst also running a company of their size. Good on Linus for being able to let go a little bit.
Yes but the funny thing is that Linus likely still has the majority of shares, meaning he still is the boss. Lol. But yes you're right he is now less inclined to tell people what to do (and what not to do)
@@z2six I mean that was the whole point... In essence, it's still his company but he doesn't have to spend so much time on the daily management and operational side of things.
@@z2six That's why young peeps dream of being CEO while old peeps dream of being shareholders. Shareholders own a portion of the company and the Board ultimately dictates the long-term vision, but they don't have to handle the busywork that CEOs do.
I mean take the lesson here guys. It doesn't get much better then having enough money to buy stupid toys and play with them with the boys. No woman will ever make you that happy, I promise you.
I'm sixty-five years old, but watching this video made me feel like I did when I was 30 and had just bought my first PC. Tinkering to improve system performance became may favorite pastime.
Im a lot younger than you but my first pc that was actually mine was a pentium 1 @ 90 mhz and I put an SIS 6326( I still own lol) then got a voodoo 2 that I still have. I love tinkering, I have like 300 video cards.Sometimes I find one in a box and Im like "oh yeah I forgot about you" I used to benchmark cards all the time.They range from really crappy no 3d functionality to rare cards
My 3990X has gone through two motherboards(and you can no longer buy them new) as memory controller chips kept burning out... I had to say goodbye to my sweet prince but 2x £900 motherboards in like 3 years is just not ok. I hope this is something they've fixed for future versions...
Zen 2 had leftover memory controller problems from zen 1 and zen1+ albeit not usually so bad. Zen 3 pretty much eliminated all of that. Can't say they'll be as stable as xeon's over 15 years time span, but you shouldn't have that issue anymore. Can you adjust SoC voltage, maybe downregulate the CPU/memory speeds a little, might help. Also I thought the IMC was on the CPU, but I'm not too knowledgable on threadrippers, maybe the motherboards got something on them that a normal consumer motherboard doesn't.
The mem controllers on ryzen CPUs are on the CPU itself. The connection between the CPU and the RAM on your motherboard is basically a glorified wire. Whatever you burned was not a memory controller.
A lot of the new videos with more technical information are much better because of the labs which allow the writers to focus on the writing and not the detailed information because they can out source that for no additional cost to them
Hey quick info for you if you see this! That screeching sound can be minimized by adjusting the fluid flow by adjusting the regulator screw on the back. Check your documentation, but for my chillers the preferred set point is 75. You can see this value by clicking the down arrow.
So top tip on the environmental chambers, after going bellow the dew point set a slow profile to a few degrees above ambient and leave it there for 10 mins. Then you can take the kit out without any condensation risk.
It’s cool to see falcon featured on your channel. Around 8 years ago I watched a youtuber named bulletbarry, and he worked there. He was the person who got me into computers, and I wouldn’t have thought there would ever be a link between you two.
12:23 I'm from Finland, and oh how well I remember when I was a kid and got a computer as a present in winter. Me and my buddies had to wait a full day to be allowed to hook it up and start it. That was rough! 🤣 Another Finland thing: Up until 1995, mopeds in Finland were limited to 1,1kW total power. So in essence this CPU is using about half again as much power as a moped back then. 😂
It seems like any TH-camr is mentioning another one these days. I guess it has something to do with the TH-cam algorithm and clicks are going down for all of the big players. I don’t mind it, I love collabs
Hey just a suggestion if you use the environmental chamber again for something like this in the future. If the environmental chamber can control humidity then you can bring the system back up to room temperature inside the chamber in a low humidity environment. Then you won't have to wait for the system to dry out because there won't be any condensation.
@@flummi6966 You wouldn't need to run the chiller while warming the PC up though. Just turn everything off (including the PC) and let everything come back up to temperature
@@Xyler94 I do remember them mentioning that. I would be surprised if they still didn't have that capability. It wouldn't make for much of an environmental test chamber
This build is pure insanity! The scalability potential of this 96-core Ripper is mind-blowing. I can't wait to see what crazy experiments you conduct next!
I'm sure that many people have commented this, but things like the overclocking fuse are used by manufacturers when analysing their RMA devices in order to separate manufacturing problems from customer problems.
You guys could look into RV anti-freeze, it's a totally different chemical composition than standard antifreeze because it's made to go into drinking water pipes during storage.
In my experience with "winterizing" equipment...RV antifreeze is a no go, it doesn't freeze hard but it will turn to slush around -20F, but is used because its *USUALLY* not glycol or methanol based (rather ethanol) which makes it safer for anything that might be around or for food. We use the same kind of blue windshield washer fluid for what we do, for that reason (methanol based and protects passed -40F, along with no human consumption worry)...It stays a liquid until at least -40F, and doesn't have the same environmental impact as propylene-glycol ... I don't have any experience with temps below -40F though.
Fun fact, citites skylines 2 uses Unity's new Data oriented technology stack( DOTS) , In short it can manage processes across multiple threads, scheduling job to ultilize the full scale of a cpu leaving the devs free to not worrry about scheduling parrallel taks if they follow the DOTS pattern. Its really exciting to see what can be done. Its another reason why citites skylines 2 had bad performance, when they started to dev this game a few years ago DOTS will still verry early in production and did not have all the systems implimented, Entity graphics being one, so CS 2 devs had to make a work around, and this is why it crapped out.
It seems to also just be horrendously optimized. I vaguely remember someone pointing out that each person's face has several hundred vertices and the game just doesn't LOD them away even at a distance.
@@jatoxo while your not lying about the optimized part... as a a game needs to be finished before optimization and the game seems far from that state. However they did fix the LOD issue you mention but there remains alot to be desired with almost every other aspect of the game.. However I have to admit, and as disappointed I am, I have seen the makings of a good game inside, minus the bugs and completeness. They maybe correct when they say the bones are there for a good sequel and that is a fitting description cause it really feels like just the bones at this point.
Hey @LTT You could use camera from cold to hot trick to avoid it getting that moisture and wait few days. When you finished before getting it out from that cold thingie you can wrap it into some kind of plastic bag and let it warm itself in that bag. It won’t get that moisture then. It will stop that condensation coz that moisture is in hot air around you :) just for future tries ;)
There are industrial fluids out there which can have a much greater temperature range but you will be paying $100usd a gallon or more for them. They are designed for cooling electronics though and many of them are designed to be in contact with the components. The frost was also for effect, when you cool electrical components down to super cold, you also bring them up to temperature in a CDA (clean dry air) environment so you don't get frost.
My advisor and I have at times waited for months on the line to use our university's supercomputer which is a 96 potato as supercomputers go, from ~15 years ago. A Threadripper PC is basically a personal supercomputer, it would have been so useful during my research!
Try BMW H12 70% concentrate - 30% water (maximum freezing protection) -67 C And if you into spoofing do 90% H12 - 10% Water For a As tested -78 C Make sure to use the distillate water
Gary: *probably one of, if not the, smartest and most experienced minds at LMG and a literal computer engineer who designed tech like this for years* Also Gary: "curve optimizer" "which is what?" "....I don't know...." Thanks Gary
I'm really impressed by Cities Skylines 2 they managed to make a game that can be played decently well (up to 100k residents) and at the same time be so compute intensive that it's a benchmark for the strongest cpus as they said, they really made it future proof
What would be impressive would be if the game could scale its load to accommodate slower cpus even at higher populations. Don't take me wrong, I don't know how that would work at all. All I'm saying is that would impress me much more. After all, what's particularly impressive about using more cpu power to do the same thing more times? That seems totally logical to me.
What city of 100k residents IRL has a respectable skyline though? Cities Skylines 1 runs cities of 300k decently and is 9 years old. Sure it doesn't look as pretty but at least it looks like an actual city instead of a town.
I dont think so. The CPU utilization is poor, so it doesn't run smoothly. You can see how badly it was programmed, but nothing more. Factorio is much more impressive and can do much more with the CPU resources.
One interesting fact about game engine design is that number of thread support is a core design and support element. Many pieces of software require significant redesign to support modern CPUs.
6:00 To give a comparison of the score results. I have a 7800X3d and I get 18500 points on the same test and they got 114,000. Quite the CPU this thing is.
@@FrietjeOorlog No changes. There is eco normal and overclock options through ryzen master and I picked normal. Zero overclock so maybe you can hit 20k over locked? even still far bit away lol
He's an expert compared to Linus and Alex who just kind of do this because they think it's fun, to be fair, Gary does this because he thinks it's fun too, but he's been doing it for longer than Linus and Alex have had the money to do it
For cooling fluids, have a look at what is used for ground source heat pump systems. That is the alcohol from windshield-wiper fluid, but without the soaps etc. Can also get it with corrosion-inhibitors, which I suggest you get just for the giggles.
I think i should point this out. Thank you, linus tech tips, for giving timestamped chapters in your videos. This lets us skip the sponsorship without any hassle. Thank you for going the extra mile to make this experience more enjoyable for us.
The title when I clicked this was "I Don't Care if This Makes Sense - Chilling Threadripper Pro 7000" I am a huge fan of this type of title and clicked it as a result, having the second part be descriptive is very appealing to me
I started clapping at 17:02 👏 😂 I’m using an I7-6700, ARC A380 LP, 16GB DDR4 at 2133MHz and 1TB M.2 Crucial P3 (Gen3x4) but I was so excited as if that system was mine 😂. Great Job guys.
What I love so much about Gary is, he's an engineer I've known about since before LMG hired him, he's an expert on motherboards, and yet still when asked about something like 'what is curve optimizer?' he just says 'I don't know' Dunno why I find that so endearing, but I suppose it's that I too used to play around with settings that I didn't know much about, to see if get a performance boost. Back before the wider internet it was the only way to go.
I realize we are well past this now and I feel a bit old just writing this but when I built my first gaming PC the highest end cpu you could get was 4 cores and I don’t even think you could easily overclock to 4.8Ghz. This has 24x the cores and just hits that out of the box. Not to mention IPC improvements. So fun to watch people play with tech like this
64 cores is a Windows limit to due with how it "bundles" threads, there are ways to use more than 64 in Windows by using multiple "Bundles" but doing so will add unnecessary complexity for most programs and actually hurt performance vs single bundle on systems with less than about 80
This may be the first computer I’ve seen built that I couldn’t even afford to power it on.. that’s kinda neat. I thought I’d seen everything. 1,000w CPU.. I mean at that point you reallly gotta do everything right or you’re gonna burn your house down lol. Edit: alright.. that was a cool ass video. Thank you! What you must have spent to give us a neat video to watch. Awesome, I’d never get to see something like this in real life.
i love alex. he always somehow seems like he's never been on camera before and has no desire to be; basically the foil to energetic linus, but with such wholesome energy hahah
Stopped mid Video, to point this out, LInus is old af now, these kids are on their A-game on every detail with the new tech. Great Team. Great Video. The future is bright.
To be fair, they(LMG), are basically doing the same thing as LN2 as an exotic cooling solution by putting the computer in a freezer and using a chiller as well. Still Great Job! :)
Just watched through the whole video - I really have to say it's one of those videos I'll watch again somewhen in the future because I enjoyed it a lot. You guys have changed A LOT and I think it's amazing! We don't want you to create as many videos and work yourselves to death... we want you to do interesting stuff and be happy! Hope this is actually the case.
Do you know what I find funny about this comment? As far as I can tell, this is basically just another video in the series of videos that I have dubbed "torturing computers with the chiller" and some of those videos were shot long before that controversy ever happened. People will see what they want to see. Believe what they want to believe, but when you actually look at the facts, very little has changed even though people's opinions on something have changed dramatically
20:01 I don't understand why they immediately took it out of the chamber, which was low humidity. Why couldn't they have slowly warmed it up to ambient temperature? Then they wouldn't have to worry about condensation.
No. They won't. Moore's Law Stagnation will require us to move away from conventional transistors in order to even match a quarter of the speed of exponential progress Moore's Law was making 20 years ago. We've almost hit the ceiling in terms of transistor technology and fabrication. We're gonna be on 4-3nm nodes for the next ten years. At 2nm yields will be so low that anything made with that tech will extremely expensive. We will start to see bigger and bigger chips and/or more AI assisted real-time general computing.
@@tapsofosiris3110 you're being conservative with your estimates. Apple has already coveted the 2nm production for their products so I assume that'll be the actual thing we'll be sitting on for a while until they figure out how to make the most out of vertically-scaled chips and the such, there's still tricks to push the speed of processors forward without completely changing the current manufacturing process that has advanced so much
4:00 I think this is actually Windows limitation. A single process cannot use more cores and if you want to compute on more cores, you have to use multiple different processes with threads distributed to multiple processes.
Without knowing which kind of license they use here it's hard to pinpoint why exactly this happened. That's one of the fields where Home and Enterprise handle things very differently though I'm only familiar with this phenomenon on W10 where big CPUs get split into multiple processor groups and your process could only run on one of them or something like that.
Linus, is there any chance you could go over the 4x DDR5 debacle? I know it’s had its teething issues but there’s a lot of improvements been made. Be cool to see just how fair it’s come on both Intel and AMD platforms. I’ve searched everywhere for something recent relating to the topic and everywhere is dead or follows the same old copy and paste Reddit post from 2 years ago.
Brings back memories of my old overclocked Quad Opteron :) That thing would eat 1100 watts no problem on Opteron 61xx ES. i never got a chance to run 4 Opteron 63xx ES on it though.
@@LeLe-pm2pr Yeah but if you dont want to wait you can just set the chamber to room temperature and let the pc warm up in there (and obviously keep the humidity as low as possible). Then there should be no problem with temperature differences at all.
So I've been watching for about 8 months faithfully every new video that pops up on my notifications and if it doesn't from my notifications I search for it I just had a quick question these companies do they actually give it to your company or is it on loan and if it is on loan if you break it do you buy it lol this is by far my #1 ch thanks for what you guys do
You COULD have kept the system in the chamber, heated the chamber up to say... 55c... and killed off all the moisture before bringing the system out to the air free and clear of condensation... But you HAD to rush it and pull the system out cold to get COVERED in moisture afterwards...
Came here looking for someone pointing out the same thing. Assuming they leave it powered off until all condensation has evaporated... I guess it SHOULD be okay.
Hi Linus! I work for Thermo Fisher Scientific and we use those chillers for multiple instruments. For one of them it's to cool down a Peltier cooler that cool down a detector to -45c. We simply keep the detector under dry nitrogen or argon and that stop condensation. You should give that a try!

That screeching sound can be minimized by adjusting the fluid flow by adjusting the regulator screw on the back. Check your documentation, but for my chillers the preferred set point is 75. You can see this value by clicking the down arrow.

If it can keep the humidity near 0 then they can just crank the heat to ambient and pull it out after a little bit.
Their air dryer should already be pushing -40 dewpoint air, so other than the VRM cooling they didn't even need to take the chamber sub-zero.
Unrelated reply, but your profile pic is soo cute
Yeah, I was thinking they went through all that effort to avoid condensation then just pulled it straight out for it to completely frost up?
Key is slow cooling and heating, preferably over night or a few hours. If they actually cared.

6:00 that random advertising got me 😂😂
Hey @LTT You could use camera from cold to hot trick to avoid it getting that moisture and wait few days. When you finished before getting it out from that cold thingie you can wrap it into some kind of plastic bag and let it warm itself in that bag. It won’t get that moisture then. It will stop that condensation coz that moisture is in hot air around you :) just for future tries ;)
Cool that @biffa has given Linus this city!
There are industrial fluids out there which can have a much greater temperature range but you will be paying $100usd a gallon or more for them. They are designed for cooling electronics though and many of them are designed to be in contact with the components. The frost was also for effect, when you cool electrical components down to super cold, you also bring them up to temperature in a CDA (clean dry air) environment so you don't get frost.
Linus if you read this comment you legally have to give me one

The moment i saw alex come into the frame, i was like: "oh, this is gonna be fun fun"
My advisor and I have at times waited for months on the line to use our university's supercomputer which is a 96 potato as supercomputers go, from ~15 years ago. A Threadripper PC is basically a personal supercomputer, it would have been so useful during my research!
I still remember how excited I was when I got my first dual core Athlon. Man, this is insane.
Same… had a Athlon X2 5600
I built my first custom PC using the first 1Ghz chip from AMD. To this day I'm still impressed AMD beat Intel to 1Ghz.
I dont know what it is.. Its like watching LTT from the past with better production. Love it!
Try BMW H12
70% concentrate - 30% water
(maximum freezing protection)
-67 C
And if you into spoofing do 90% H12 - 10% Water For a As tested -78 C
Make sure to use the distillate water
It makes me so happy every time the pull out the water chiller
Gary: *probably one of, if not the, smartest and most experienced minds at LMG and a literal computer engineer who designed tech like this for years*
Also Gary: "curve optimizer" "which is what?" "....I don't know...."
Thanks Gary
I'm really impressed by Cities Skylines 2
they managed to make a game that can be played decently well (up to 100k residents) and at the same time be so compute intensive that it's a benchmark for the strongest cpus
as they said, they really made it future proof
So it's no longer "can it run Crysis?" it's "can it run CSL2?" now
@@jur4xYes, exactly lol
What would be impressive would be if the game could scale its load to accommodate slower cpus even at higher populations. Don't take me wrong, I don't know how that would work at all. All I'm saying is that would impress me much more. After all, what's particularly impressive about using more cpu power to do the same thing more times? That seems totally logical to me.
What city of 100k residents IRL has a respectable skyline though? Cities Skylines 1 runs cities of 300k decently and is 9 years old. Sure it doesn't look as pretty but at least it looks like an actual city instead of a town.
I dont think so. The CPU utilization is poor, so it doesn't run smoothly. You can see how badly it was programmed, but nothing more. Factorio is much more impressive and can do much more with the CPU resources.
One interesting fact about game engine design is that number of thread support is a core design and support element. Many pieces of software require significant redesign to support modern CPUs.
Hats off to whoever wrote the script.....The hook at the beginning was stupendous! Beautiful hook! Excellent scriptwriting!
Lol, your little overclocker helper REALLY didn't want to be on camera!
This is tech at its most fun…..wonderful job guys and thanks for the many great hours of entertainment 🏴
I absolutely love the Alex x Linus crazy janky build / cooling series videos! Please do more of these, they're the best :D
I just love when alex is the project lead and linus working on his instructions
6:00 To give a comparison of the score results. I have a 7800X3d and I get 18500 points on the same test and they got 114,000. Quite the CPU this thing is.
That's really cool.
What settings for the 7800X3D? PBO etc.
@@FrietjeOorlog No changes. There is eco normal and overclock options through ryzen master and I picked normal. Zero overclock so maybe you can hit 20k over locked? even still far bit away lol

17:10 this is hilarious lol, brought that guy in like he is the expert, then all he says, is "Idontknow" "something like that"
He's an expert compared to Linus and Alex who just kind of do this because they think it's fun, to be fair, Gary does this because he thinks it's fun too, but he's been doing it for longer than Linus and Alex have had the money to do it
I love how often that chiller gets utilized. It makes me smile every time it appears in a video.
This is such a better video for the product than a review, good choice.
i cannot wait till 6-7 years from now i forget all about this and randomly find one for not too much on ebay
one day ... :)
For cooling fluids, have a look at what is used for ground source heat pump systems. That is the alcohol from windshield-wiper fluid, but without the soaps etc.
Can also get it with corrosion-inhibitors, which I suggest you get just for the giggles.
I think i should point this out. Thank you, linus tech tips, for giving timestamped chapters in your videos. This lets us skip the sponsorship without any hassle. Thank you for going the extra mile to make this experience more enjoyable for us.
More Alex always please. The Jank is overclocked now and I'm here for it.
The title when I clicked this was "I Don't Care if This Makes Sense - Chilling Threadripper Pro 7000" I am a huge fan of this type of title and clicked it as a result, having the second part be descriptive is very appealing to me
You guys at LTT really make tech fun
Digging the grungy hanging wire crapshack laboratory vibe on this video.
It's like ads, I don't see warnings. This deeply resonates with me.
Gary is so wholesome. Just putting that out there.
I started clapping at 17:02 👏 😂 I’m using an I7-6700, ARC A380 LP, 16GB DDR4 at 2133MHz and 1TB M.2 Crucial P3 (Gen3x4) but I was so excited as if that system was mine 😂. Great Job guys.
I really appreciate Gary's appearance on the video and would like to hear from him more.
What I love so much about Gary is, he's an engineer I've known about since before LMG hired him, he's an expert on motherboards, and yet still when asked about something like 'what is curve optimizer?' he just says 'I don't know'
Dunno why I find that so endearing, but I suppose it's that I too used to play around with settings that I didn't know much about, to see if get a performance boost. Back before the wider internet it was the only way to go.
These videos, combined with the server stuff is what I love most! Keep Alex fed with all the stuff he can break🤪
I realize we are well past this now and I feel a bit old just writing this but when I built my first gaming PC the highest end cpu you could get was 4 cores and I don’t even think you could easily overclock to 4.8Ghz. This has 24x the cores and just hits that out of the box. Not to mention IPC improvements. So fun to watch people play with tech like this
64 cores is a Windows limit to due with how it "bundles" threads, there are ways to use more than 64 in Windows by using multiple "Bundles" but doing so will add unnecessary complexity for most programs and actually hurt performance vs single bundle on systems with less than about 80
That's only for home edition. The pro edition Windows 10 is up to 128 cores. Windows 11 pro supports up to 256 cores and dual socket systems.
They should use IoT LTSC as it is the best edition
This may be the first computer I’ve seen built that I couldn’t even afford to power it on.. that’s kinda neat.
I thought I’d seen everything. 1,000w CPU.. I mean at that point you reallly gotta do everything right or you’re gonna burn your house down lol.
Edit: alright.. that was a cool ass video. Thank you! What you must have spent to give us a neat video to watch. Awesome, I’d never get to see something like this in real life.
If that trend continues then North America will have to switch to 230 V at some point 😂
19:54 Guys in the morning.
Love this how much fun their having just pushing the limit of CPU that what PC was made for for overclocking.
i love alex. he always somehow seems like he's never been on camera before and has no desire to be; basically the foil to energetic linus, but with such wholesome energy hahah
Alex reminds of a car mechanic who always leave a few bolts laying on the ground after a job decently performed
😂
If it works without them, then you just optimised away unnecessary mass.
I'm around mecahnics all the time, and it literally took you mentioning it for me to realize the uncanny likeness 😂
Alex, Linus, and crazy hardware are a great combination! Can we do Epyc next?!

Stopped mid Video, to point this out, LInus is old af now, these kids are on their A-game on every detail with the new tech. Great Team. Great Video. The future is bright.
To be fair, they(LMG), are basically doing the same thing as LN2 as an exotic cooling solution by putting the computer in a freezer and using a chiller as well. Still Great Job! :)
With 192 logical cores, it might be possible to play Doom on the Task Manager monitor.
Check our Level 1 Techs review of our similar RAK system... 😁
Just watched through the whole video - I really have to say it's one of those videos I'll watch again somewhen in the future because I enjoyed it a lot. You guys have changed A LOT and I think it's amazing! We don't want you to create as many videos and work yourselves to death... we want you to do interesting stuff and be happy! Hope this is actually the case.
Do you know what I find funny about this comment? As far as I can tell, this is basically just another video in the series of videos that I have dubbed "torturing computers with the chiller" and some of those videos were shot long before that controversy ever happened.
People will see what they want to see. Believe what they want to believe, but when you actually look at the facts, very little has changed even though people's opinions on something have changed dramatically
@@the_undeadlet people live in their nativity bubble.
@@PhyrexJ for various reasons, it would be better to learn what? I am trying to teach them sooner rather than later
20:01 I don't understand why they immediately took it out of the chamber, which was low humidity. Why couldn't they have slowly warmed it up to ambient temperature? Then they wouldn't have to worry about condensation.

maybe doom? maybe.
But the real question is will it run crysis
prob not, you will need epyc for that
Our smartphones will be matching this in 20 years 🙃
probably even sooner
No. They won't. Moore's Law Stagnation will require us to move away from conventional transistors in order to even match a quarter of the speed of exponential progress Moore's Law was making 20 years ago. We've almost hit the ceiling in terms of transistor technology and fabrication. We're gonna be on 4-3nm nodes for the next ten years. At 2nm yields will be so low that anything made with that tech will extremely expensive. We will start to see bigger and bigger chips and/or more AI assisted real-time general computing.
@@tapsofosiris3110 you're being conservative with your estimates. Apple has already coveted the 2nm production for their products so I assume that'll be the actual thing we'll be sitting on for a while until they figure out how to make the most out of vertically-scaled chips and the such, there's still tricks to push the speed of processors forward without completely changing the current manufacturing process that has advanced so much
Man it’s satisfying to see massive amounts of threads crunching R23
Alex is really good at balancing the intricacies of "fuck around and find out"
4:00 I think this is actually Windows limitation. A single process cannot use more cores and if you want to compute on more cores, you have to use multiple different processes with threads distributed to multiple processes.
Without knowing which kind of license they use here it's hard to pinpoint why exactly this happened. That's one of the fields where Home and Enterprise handle things very differently though I'm only familiar with this phenomenon on W10 where big CPUs get split into multiple processor groups and your process could only run on one of them or something like that.
i wish normal motherboards still had the "throw back" bios screens.
Ideally with UnifontEX
Linus, is there any chance you could go over the 4x DDR5 debacle? I know it’s had its teething issues but there’s a lot of improvements been made. Be cool to see just how fair it’s come on both Intel and AMD platforms. I’ve searched everywhere for something recent relating to the topic and everywhere is dead or follows the same old copy and paste Reddit post from 2 years ago.
Just stopping by to say how much Iove and appreciate LTT content
Brings back memories of my old overclocked Quad Opteron :) That thing would eat 1100 watts no problem on Opteron 61xx ES. i never got a chance to run 4 Opteron 63xx ES on it though.
This shit’s gonna be crazy af
Probably should let it warm back up before taking it out, otherwise you will get condensation on it once it's out and still cold
not an issue because it's perfectly clean water and the computer is off, you'll just have to wait for it to evaporate
@@LeLe-pm2pr Yeah but if you dont want to wait you can just set the chamber to room temperature and let the pc warm up in there (and obviously keep the humidity as low as possible). Then there should be no problem with temperature differences at all.
@@themisterx8660 that process would take hours, while you could just let the thing sit there for at most a day or two

Now this is the type of stuff I like to watch LTT for!
You COULD have kept the system in the chamber, heated the chamber up to say... 55c... and killed off all the moisture before bringing the system out to the air free and clear of condensation... But you HAD to rush it and pull the system out cold to get COVERED in moisture afterwards...
Came here looking for someone pointing out the same thing. Assuming they leave it powered off until all condensation has evaporated... I guess it SHOULD be okay.
But it looks so cool covered in frost! -LS
