i run one of these setups as my home PC. To really get performance out of them you have to know what you are doing. You also have to run ES chips with Turion Power Control and ideally the OCNG bios. OCNG allows you to overclock locked stocked processors if you are using those, but if you have ES chips then it allows running your memory at its spec'd timings (XMP if that profile exists) instead of the stocker DDR3-1333. This makes a large difference in performance.
You also have to know how to assign application threads to NUMA nodes using Windows Server WSRM (to reduce memory latency since grabbing memory from off socket is expensive and goes over an 8 bit HT link).
As far as gaming goes... i run a single K10.5 core on each Istanbul die at 3.8 GHz (some of the cores run at 3.9 GHz fine, but i usually just run them at 3.8)... then use Windows server WSRM to assign the games threads to the high speed core. The other cores run at 800 MHz (ie idle state).
For high bandwidth apps you need to stripe the memory across all the nodes...
ACPI related items in the BIOS also need to be setup right.
Also... the processors Linus used are Bulldozer based Opterons only equivalent to about 70% of a K10 in terms of IPC... or about a K10.5 running just over 1.6 GHz. Of course performance is going to be terrible. He should have gone with K10.5 based Magny Cours... or Opteron 63xx ES samples.
The other thing... he used really SLOW server memory, and only filled a single slot for each IMC :( For proper performance you need to fill 16 slots, 2 memory sticks for each IMC, and you want to run standard DDR3 DIMMs. At minimum you want to run DDR3-1600 preferably with XMP available. Ideally run even faster DDR3-1866 memory just like any normal desktop machine.
Basically this rig was not set up correctly... so the performance you see here is not really representative. Perhaps he can revisit this rig with the proper settings and revisit this review.
Now THAT, is know-how on those systems.
@@DanielPinel yes, he basically ran it crippled :( The K10 IMCs like both memory channels filled so that things can be run in unganged mode, and so that there can be additional parallelism during memory accesses.
Also, for latency purposes running OCNG BIOS is best as you can run the K10.5 IMCs at DDR3-1600 which is what the IMCs are capable of, but which for the Hydra platform AMD artificially restricted to only run at DDR3-1333 for servers. You can't get it to run at these speeds using the stocker SuperMicro BIOS. OCNG will also allow running at the XMP timing profiles that are on the sticks.
For best latency for games, run node interleaving (in BIOS) off, and keep all threads ideally on a single die, or if absolutely necessary let them spread over two dies on a single socket. Ram latency will be in the 72ns range. If you let threads spread off socket, you can see latencies go up to around 120-130 ns so you don't want that to happen.
The only thing that i have not yet been able to successfully do is OC the K10.5 northbridges. They run at stockish 1.8 GHz (AMD did this to save power on servers) which is fine for 3.0 GHz on the processors, but ideally you'd want to run 2.4 GHz or even 2.6 GHz if possible. i can set the CPU/NB faster, but i cannot set a higher voltage prior to boot unfortunately.

2019:
AMD: HOLD MY BEER - #64 corezzzzzz in one cpu!
Then 256 core PC
I still wonder what caused the bottle neck. Was it because of pcie? And what's even more important: When will we see an Epyc 256C/512T budget-built?
Now a normal consumer can get 64 cores in one cpu
@@sdmayday nah wasn't it 4 threads per core? if so that'd be 256 cores 1024 threads
@@sdmayday The bottleneck was very likely because the CPU(s) are missing modern instructions "AVX2" and have "relatively low cache per core", according to Linus.
And then less than 2 years after this build, AMD was like “ hey, that’s an interesting idea, let’s design a 64 core EPYC cpu which is not only useful but more powerful on a single socket “
These cheap builds with old server parts are the best. People should really stop complaining about the so-called decrease in LTT content quality. It's as good as ever.
And if you can get a decent socket chip, even in the AMD Opteron platform, they're not bad for gaming either. I have the 6386SE I managed to snag for $100 off Ebay from someone who was clearly yanking parts and not price matching them (Since you can still barely find the 6386SE for less than $300), and for gaming it essentially performs like a beefed up FX-8370 since its the same architecture. I recently got a 980ti off Ebay, hybrid for $290, and I have a decent gaming setup to help fill the void that my old gaming computer I had to sell off, left behind.
Damn, you got a good deal.
: O The word "good" doesn't even make that situation justice.
Yeah but there are smaller channels that do budget builds better.
I like to see the big CPU's on things nobody will use it for, like a 8000 Horse Power car :D

You should have installed Windows Workstation instead of server edition, it supports up to 4 CPUs and works with more traditional applications and might even work better for gaming.
I'D take a Linux and use that as encoding- /renderfarm but never for gaming ...
Hey Linus, as soon as I saw that motherboard I knew what it was. I did the same thing in late 2016 or early 2017 to build a 4-user VR computer with GPU passthrough. The clock speed (and piledriver architecture) was the main killer for gaming. There is a way to allow it to be overclocked, though. From my experience on water you could expect 3.8ghz stable in 4x16 core config, or 4.5 or so in 4x8 core config (used a Kraken water cooling loop with 120mm radiator). Basically it’s two 2nd gen FX chips per socket, probably poorly binned though. Also, modules work better for strong single thread programs like games with one integer core per module disabled (CMT off). My plan was to build a phase change system with up to 3 phases for overclocking. Ended up spilling antifreeze on the mobo and warped it when I cleaned it up. Caused it to short out one small chip on the mobo and blowing off one capacitor when it shorted. Haven’t repaired it yet. It was an absolutely insane computer and value proposition though. The chips I used were 160-200 each so it’s probably worth $600 more to just get a 32 core threadripper and do passthrough gaming that way, plus you’d get 2 to 4 times the PCI-E bandwidth and DDR-4 compared to the Supermicro board.
When he said 16 channels of Memory, I almost touched myself.

i have the same question
Because that game is GPU bottlenecked even at 1080p ultra with 1080ti
Christian Stout that game is like 95% gpu usage. You could get similar performance with a modern day pentium. If not better.
So it has 64 cores and 64 gigs of ram... but it sucks... makes sense.
well, it's a server, Pack 16 VM's in it, and each has quad vcpus and 4 gb of ram. Thats a lot for lot of small things ;)
(sidenote: That board and cpu's where designed for usecases of that)
It all depends on the application. As a gaming rig, yes, it sucks. As a VM host, it's fabulous.

Good or bad for rendering videos? - adobe after effects
tobi Herrmann 🌵
Bad
Adobe somehow fucked up the multicore support.. 64 cores won't be utilized, so no.
yea alot of hardware power is wasted because nobody wants to try to code it into pre existing software.
I would actually look to using avid media composer pro which is turning into the industry standard, it actually has really good CPU utilization. if you have a good GPU set up go with DaVinci Resolve. Also, you should never be rendering videos inside of Adobe After Effects, you should be using the standalone media encoder that's included in your purchase.
*Builds a gaming workstation*
*Gets 18 fps in Tomb Raider*
These are Server Chips and never meant for gaming but 'gaming' will get clicks :(
ltt fanbois will click anyways
Should have tried 4k resolution, to diminish the CPU bottleneck.
Or maybe it's just an interesting idea? The dual CPU board didn't work too badly. Personally I'm hoping they do it again with 4x Intel CPUs if it's possible cause older AMD CPUs suck ass compared to older Intel CPUs.
What about 200-300 tabs in chrome or minecraft ?
"It's story time" Linus's face kills me 🤣
This is also pretty good for any task that can run fairly independently and doesn't demand tons of FP performance (serving up craploads of simple webpages as a caching server, for example). Also a decent virtualization box (gotta buy more memory tho) if you need to host a huge number of VMs with fully allocated cores and just plan to SSH into the VMs.
Come one Linus, next Scrapyard wars should be building a server !!!!!!!!!
Having an 4 opterons is like duct taping 4 1990 Honda civic engines together and using it in a Ferrari

Hey LTT, hate to be 'that' guy, but your gaming results are probably wrong.
Specifically, due to the single IO controller/hub 'hanging' off a single socket 3 out of the 4 sockets will have extreme bottle necking with a PCI device you noticed. Setting the games affinity mask to the socket 'closer' to the IO hub should give you drasticaly different results, and should also reduce variance.
DmC944 The 6276 is just terrible for gaming regardless. I had to turn my old server into a gaming rig because I had to sell it off, and it originally had a 6276. My benchmarking scores with a 290X weren't nearly as God awful as these scores, and GTA5 was playable at 2560X1080, but I did get a killer deal on a 6386SE, and it is a vast improvement in IPC and overall efficiency and was able to step GTA5 up to 3440X1440 at a smooth 40-60fps when I also dropped in a 980ti. The 6386SE and the 980ti trades blows in most benchmarking utilities so I think I'm at a happy medium.
I don't know if this is true, but if it is, I would definitely want to see an official response.
First, great on constructive criticism, second, Linus can you first see if the claim is true and show us if it is? at the very least you have a free video idea that would please at least 60 people. (the current thumbs up on this comment is +60)
maybe he could prove this with a more higher end cpu
I support this video idea as well.
Tip for the video editor - those background image lights during the benchmark results = annoying.
man, I must have strange humor, as I am still laughing from watching this video. This cracks me up man.
Dual sandy bridge-e or ivy bridge e xeons with 16 or even 20 cores at the high end are just as fast, if not faster, can be had all together for less and can be actually used for gaming. The also use half the power. No a useful build.
can you please tell exactly what cpus do you mean I want to buy a new system
new... ( no) but I went 2x e5-2670 v1 2.6GHz, turbo to 3.3; if you have DDR4 then go for v3. In 2016 I couldn't find a used MB that wasn't janky so a new ASRock ep2-c602 was $323 on newegg. kind of broke the budget. Then got a 6 month old Strix r9-390 for $212. The ram was an 8x 8GB set of ddr3 ecc-Rdimm for $110. If you can get a bare HP, Dell, or supermicro workstation with the cpus already you will save $$
I built one. My $600 duel e5 2690 Dell. with 32 gb and an rx 470. Not the best GPU performance but the CPU performance is fine. 16 cores, 8 channel memory.
I wish you knew how to test Blender. SIMULATIONS
ok its me linus
JUST KIDDING
so from what i see from this video, is it not possible to game with just the on board gpu instead of using a dedicated graphics card. i mean i have played games on a pc before like gta iv without a dedicated graphics card and just used the on board gpu and it played just fine if not the same as with a dedicated graphics card. and i noticed without the dedicated gpu it performed better and very close with the previous version i7 and though no close to the newer i7 you shown, could it still techically game with just on board gpu?
That was actually fun and interesting.
I actually still have some older Opteron boxes/servers lying around my house.
Maybe I can donate them somewhere and someone else might be able to still learn using the now-decade-old hardware.
Make a budget server for someone who wants to host games!
If you want the same specs as this machine on Linode you would probably run it for 4-6 months before you reach the total cost of the hardware ($650). Linode is easy to use, but there are some of us who can't afford it and others that don't have good latency to reliable data centres. It makes sense to host it yourself if you have low electricity cost in your country.
+soundspark no. Linode is good, but far from the best.
Although I've had a ton of bad experiences with OVH, I have to say, they have the best dedicated machines.
If you'd be going for a VPS, I would recommend Scaleway. Yes, there's an upfront fee, but it's super neat for game servers. (especially if you only have the servers up for a few days [events, etc])
At that point, used gaming hardware works even better.
I have the Dell PowerEdge 2950, 8 cores, 12 GB of wonderful ECC RAM.
_Smoked_ by a freaking 2 core Pentium for $25
at that point just pay for a host, they'll have good connection, specs and at a low price if you know where to look. the bes one i recommend is host horde, they do alot of games and they're overall great and cheap, cheapest is $5 a month

I have two similar machines and they work great for what they were built for, being a server. For easy database calls, PHP and web requests that thing would do very well with multiple concurrent users. I would choose single thread performance as a priority for everything else though.
Is this good for building a home NAS though? With smaller power consumption though?

what savings!
That's a 4C/8T chip, right? What was the advantage of your setup vs a 4790K on the Z97 platform? The 4790K would have noticeably higher clocks and the motherboard and RAM would be much cheaper, offsetting the cost difference. Did you need pcie lanes? Get a great deal on an X99 board? Already have DDR4?
Did you use ecc memory or?
