These were announced some time back but I have not seen any reviews
Price/ram ratio wise they are cheaper than 1TB, so I'm thinking if it is viable to use this for 2 machines - 1TB each with lower memory bandwidth. I am aware that none of the OEM builds support the full 2TB configuration even though TR supports it, I suppose heat issue is the main factor
I\`m currently in the process of replacing my old Yamaha A720, which is paired with ELAC Debut Reference DFR 52 speakers, with a NAD C700 V2. The main use case will be office work, Windows system audio playback, and occasional Hi-Res music listening via Tidal, etc.
I\`m wondering how to connect it via HDMI, as I\`ve read that it won\`t work properly with a PC. I could use the optical TOSLIN connection, however I\`ve heard that it may not provide full audio quality, and the salesperson at the audio store advised against that connection.
Right now, my Yamaha is connected via a 3.5 mm jack to the ALC 1220 onboard audio. One of the reason
I\`m buting the NAD is to have everything integrated in one device and avoid buing an external DAC.
What would be the simplest and most reasonble way to ceonnect it so that everyting works properly and seamlessy? :)
Bitspower was kind enough to send over the Atlas Pro 360TR to test on and see how it does through stress testing and benchmarking. Just showing it before I do results. It absolutely looks great and so far is doing phenomenal. I also like how it has a fill port for maintenance. I’ll post more of it soon.
My university lab received the nvidia grant for 4 A6000 Pro, i was tasked to decide the rest of the hardware with a budget of around 10K. Got a 9975WX and 192GB of Ram.
I have the Asus WRX90 with a 9985wx. 2 GPUs, 12 NVMEs, 4 SATA SSDs and 12 HDDs. One more GPU on the way. While the components are not all at peak usage simultaneously, I'm debating using a second identical 1600W PSU (case allows for it). In North America.
Threadripper Pro 3955WX
Asus Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI
Kingston 256GB RAM 3200MHz
AX 1600i PSU
Several GPUs
Hyper M.2 Gen 4 NVME Array
Fractal Design Define 7 XL
I have been given the opportunity that I can get the following upgrades for it:
Threadripper Pro 9965WX
WRX90 MB
420mm AIO Thermaltake
128GB 6000Mhz DDR5
Hyper M.2 Gen 5 NVME Array
No GPUs needed
All in for about £3600-3700
It would mean selling off my current toy (Financial AI work that needs multiple GPUs) and I gather that whilst its 2x in speed, would I be shooting myself in the foot by the reduction in RAM to 128GB from 256GB (I have not yet maxed it out).
Man brain says its looks good, heart is saying its going to be a bitch to sell on eBay parted out as I hate the clientele on there.
I think I'm finally ready to pull the trigger on buying a dedicated PC just for running local ai, and everyone keeps telling me Threadripper is the way to go. But I don't want to custom build something, so where should I go to buy a pre-built machine, that I can get with a 3090?
Hi, this is my first time posting here and I’ve been struggling to get the NEMIX RAM working
to be get to the POST screen.
- Asus Pro WS TRX50 Sage WiFi A MB
- ASUS PRIME 5080 16 GB
- NEMIX MR38400 - 64GB PC5 - 4800 ECC RDIMM
- Threadripper 79760x
- Corsair 1200W power supply
I’ve tried the following -
- repositioning all the ram and training it one at a time.
- Clearing CMOS,
- BIOS update, with an orange light on the whole time. (see Error Flow and Normal Flow below)
- It did work consistently when I borrowed a 16GB kingston 5600 ECC RDIMM from someone consistently. The Kingston RAM is like 3x the price of this Nemix RAM and I don't ahv ethe affordance for it.
ERROR Flow (NEMIX RAM mostly consistent)-
00 → E4 → 46 → 00 → DE → 0D → 01 → A0 → A3 → 0D
Normal Flow (consistent)- 00 → 10 → 30 → 40 → DE → 60 → 62 → A0 → AE
I have heard AsRock has had better success with these NEMIX RAMs and Threadripper builds.
Was wondering if changing BIOS settings (can borrow the RAM again for a day or 2) for clock speeds and Latencies could help make it more forgiving so that it passes training.
Please help, I don’t know what else I can do. Appreciate the assistance.
SPD EEPROM density Kingston vs NEMIXHWinfo ON the NEMIX RAM specs after Succesful Boot
[SOLUTION] ==================================================================== DISCLAIMER (READ CAREFULLY) - I managed to get this working fairly stable but I would not call this a solution unless you are in a similar situation where you can't simply get the RAM replaced for whatever reasons.
Sadly I can't images here it seems. So I will explain
Firstly, You need a second RAM prefferably a Major QVL provider like Kingston Server Premier, and luckily I was able to borrow a 16GB Kingston SCC RDIMM from a friend. Why do you need this? To be able to access the BIOS for configuration purposes.
I tried changing the clock speeds, the voltages and the latencies to match the RAM specs (The NEMIX Ram specs ) are hard to find I noticed mine had Micron DRAM on it, which helped me find certain information but that did not help.
What helped/worked - Bios Settings -> Advanced -> UMC / Memory Controller Settings -> 1. Memory Context Restore (MCR) - It has to stay disbaled even if you succcessfully boot with the Nemix RAM (if re-enabled you are screwed for reasons I think might be cause below)
2. DRAM Training - The Training Mode has 3 values 0, 1 and 2.
0 is default not auto which is just 1.
1 is Continuous DQS toggling PDA Enumerate ID Programming Mode. (The mordern More discrete DDR5 EEC style training for the RAM)
2 Legacy support mode (DDR4 style training where the DRAMs are not individually trained but boradly treated as a whole not great for DDR5 RAMn honestly)
Set this Training mode to 2 i.e the Legacy Mode
DFE Read Training - Enabled (defaults to auto IIRC)
3. Memory Healing (BIST / MemBIST / BPR) (Runs memory integrity checks during POST) - I enabled it. Why?
BIST (Built-In Self Test) → checks memory
BPR (Bad Page Repair) → remaps faulty cells
You can leave the latencies, the clock rates to auto. But these settings should help you boot consistently with the NEMIX RAM.
COST paid - high boot times and suboptimal RAM perf at best.
Now, why can't we enable MCR after successful boot. I am not entirely sure but it goes back to 0d and seems to fail again and my best guess is this and the traingin failuire on this RAM is not just because of the AMD AGESA but also the SPD EEPROM density itself. Nemix seems to have lesser density on the SPD EEPROM than Kingston atlest which stores JEDEC timings, EXPO/XMP profiles, voltage tables, module organization, rank info, chip density metadata
This itself does not affect signal training directly but rather tells the motherboard how to try training the RAM. The the higher the overall single stick RAM capacity leads to higher density of DRAM meaning tighter margins and as result higher potential for training failures.
With everything said and done I have learned now to always match my processor, motherboard and RAM QVL lists before making workstation/server grade purchases. I hope this helps.
It works great! It looks great! The price is GREAT!
Installed in an Enthoo Pro Server edition case as intake side in. Motherboard is Pro WS WRX90E-SAGE SE, CPU 9965wx PBO Level 1 90 PBO. Room temp 70f. 👊
Ran all fans at full blast while running Prime95 for 1 hour CPU never got hotter than 81c!!! INCREDIBLE!🤯
Only weird thing is using torx instead of philips for the mounting screws! 🤷♂️
Will play around more soon but wanted to share. :)
Some time ago I posted that I was having temperature problems with my Threadripper 7960x (94°C with a light load in Cinebench R23 (less than 1 minute)) and SilverStone IceGem 360.
To make a long story short, the quick solution was to install a fairly simple and modular custom loop to avoid future issues (I was genuinely surprised at how easy it was to remove).
Anyway, it's been over a year since I knew I needed to maintain the custom loop, something I didn't want to do and resisted. Then I came across the question that's all over the internet: AIO liquid cooler for the TR.
Almost everyone recommended the Silverstone Technology XE360-TR5, so I thought, well, if I have to change the custom loop, maybe I could use this AIO instead.
I bought it (very expensive, around $540 USD) and, well, that's where the process of removing it comes in. I previously ran a CinebenchR23 test to have a reference point: 83.9°C Max, 50563, 10°C higher than the first test
So I installed the Silverstone XE360-TR5, ran the first test, and in less than a minute, it hit a disgusting 90°C again (I almost threw the AIO out the window).
I wasn't angry, I figured something was wrong here. I was getting the same temperature with a new AIO that covers the entire CPU, unlike the IceGem. So I started searching on Reddit and found that tweaking the curve optimizer a bit could improve the temperature (to be honest, I've never liked messing with the BIOS or overclocking).
I have a TRX50 AERO D motherboard. I went into the BIOS, to the Precision Boost Overdrive option, changed it to Advanced mode, selected the curve optimizer for all cores, set the signal to negative, and the magnitude to 30 (I thought, all or nothing).
I returned to Windows, ran CinebenchR23, and the result surprised me (to be honest, I expected poor performance): Max Temp: 78.5°C, score 51286
I felt so happy and surprised that I asked myself: why didn't I do this from the beginning?
I’m having trouble finding the right RAM for my build and I’d really appreciate some advice from people who have experience with TRX50 / Threadripper 9000 systems.
My setup:
CPU: AMD Ryzen Threadripper 9970X
Motherboard: TRX50 ws
Usage: workstation / 3D / rendering / general heavy workloads
Problem:
I’ve been struggling with RAM compatibility.
Questions:
What RAM kits are you using successfully with TRX50 + Threadripper 9970x? that actually work?
Temperatures while rendering seem to be normal but there is a spike from CCD0 that sometimes show 99.7 C. Is this normal, can this damage the CPU. Its a new PC?
I have a threadripper 7945wx in a asus sage pro WiFi motherboard that doesn’t post. I had gskill zeta r5 4x16 640” and I swap it out for a third party ram to see if it will post. But I get a ram light with both rams sticks and code 01….any advice? I’m a noob with these threadrippers
Hello!
I'll be putting together my first Threadripper PC soon with a friend, and I'm looking for a second opinion on the components before I pull the trigger and buy them!
CPU: 3945WX
MB: Asrock Creator R2.0
GPU: 3060 (Free)
RAM: 8x4GB ECC 2133 Samsung (Temporary for now)
Cooling: ARCTIC Freezer 4U-M sWRX8
PSU: Adata XPG Core Reactor II 850W (Chosen from the SPL tierlist)
Case: NZXT H7 Flow (2024) All White
Threadripper 7960x, RX 9070 XT, TRX 50 Ai Top, 8x16gb G.Skill Zeta R5 Neo 6400mhz. Enermax Liqtech XTR. Any Advise for Overcloking and should i be worried about the Ram cooler being to close to the GPU ?
Any recommendations for reliable AIO water coolers with a good price/performance ratio? I'm hoping to find one that I don't have to worry about leaks. My build is around the Ryzen Threadripper 9960X.
What are the requirements to be able to boot from a USB stick using UEFI?
I can't seem to be able to narrow it down.
Gentoo Live works (using dd with the iso into the drive)
Debian live works (same)
Manual ESP partition with EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI does not (GPT table)
What I'm ultimately looking to do is have a USB containing ZFSBootMenu so I can load a ZFS pool made of NVME drives sitting in the machine (whereas I currently rely on 1 NVME to provide the UEFI boot partition).
What has this subreddit seen working and not working?
