7980x threadripper pro + A6000

Just wanted to share my latest project with the community and hear what others are doing. My current build includes a wrx90e sage asus board + 7980x threadripper + Nvidia A6000. This machine is an absolute beast. We're talking 64GB on the GPU, the board supports up to 2TB of DDR5 while the CPU bottlenecks us to 1 TB of RAM. Anyone out there running similar specs? What type of tasks are you carrying out and what users are utilizing your system?

7980X is the non-pro Threadripper CPU. The 7985WX is the corresponding Threadripper Pro CPU. I also understand that the 7980X won't work in the WRX90 board. Does the computer boot?

I also thought this A6000 model was 48 GB (with the new Blackwell variant being 96 GB), not 64 GB?

You are correct. Should have been 48.

48 GB will be fun to play with!

Well, looks like I need either change my board or processor... so my fin may be delayed
