@@CraftComputing Yes but Steve got cold feet and disturbed the pentagram. So he got Wendell wearing an LTT hoody. I can still remember Steve screaming "NOT HIM!" when we started hearing Linus' voice.
@@angrynerd2103 oh they have a cult. I'm just worried about the dark turn it seems to have taken. Is 54000+ in R23 actually worth summoning Satan? Some would say yes.
Absolutely loved the empty server case decorated with the X-Wing and A-Wings so it looked like a hangar! Hardware obviously was insane, but the little decorative touches really made this video
gotta love this show! amazing host, god tier components, interesting ideas, sweeeeet lightning and that cozy feeling covered in uh, woodgrain-ish walling. I don't drink, never did but that "sip" @ 17:27 made me jealous af. ciao! ps: steam deck day one mr crafty!!
Sorry did I miss you mention the NVME drives you are using? Could t find it in the description. Great video as always. I got one of those 12 bay 1U racks you recommended. Amazing space saver.
I was puzzled when I saw the ASRock box and that CPU tray, until I saw the Epyc printing. I have that same board with a Supermicro SP3 cooler for proper airflow direction. The boot delay is attributed to the inventory setting on the board.
You don't have to bend the heat pipes if you have clearance issues you just gotta drill several small holes on the top of the case in the exact layout of the heat pipes at the exact size of the heat pipes where they make contact with the case and they will just pop out neatly (provided you do the measurements correctly). Each hole should only be a few millimeters larger than the actual pipe and this is plenty of clearance. Saw this once a few years ago the only downside is that it may have clearance issues on a rack. Looks pretty neat otherwise.
Oh man, I know just how you feel. I've mounted last year my very first server. And the second one come real quick haha and it's an amazing feel! I can't even imagine how it would be to mount such a powerful machine!
I did the same exact thing with the heat sink, but not with a noctua cooler, it was an arctic one lol. I ended up switching it out with an extra low profile noctua cooler I had laying around.
Wendell is the cool server uncle of the UA-cam space. Yeah, Linus makes the big ass storage arrays but Wendell bails everyone out. He's an absolute gentleman.
Had the same problem with cooler height on a threadripper live streaming setup. I ended up going with the EK-MLC phoenix, which allowed for easy maintenance due to the quick disconnects. Definitely would recommend a case like RSV-L4500U which allows you to mount a 360 rad to a bracket.
its should be illegal to have this much processing in this man's server closet. I am joking this type of videos get me excited for tech . thank you my good sir❤️
How do you plan to use the K80s for gaming? I'm also planning to get one to use it passed through to a virtual gaming system but regarding the info I found it's not possible as these GPUs can only be used for computing purposes. I'm really looking forward for the video of the software side of the project!
@@TheRobMozza: Well, the similarities to the *‘Vision On’* children’s television programme are vividly obvious. Pretty sure it was BBC - 1970’s BBC at that. Now I’m wondering who created the music (not that I personally ever cared for it myself!).
I’m in the process of building an almost identical Setup (waiting on PSU, GPU, CPU Cooler delivery Wednesday). I tried to get the BeQuiet 1500W PSU but everywhere was backordered, so I went for the Corsair AX1600i. I also went Threadripper Pro due to higher core frequency. I even have the ASUS PCI card that came with the Mobo, still deciding what NVMe’s I want to throw into it.

You had to take something out of your rack last week to accommodate that DL80 you put. I'm curious to know how you're gonna fit this in there. Is it time for another rack? Would make a good video. Another rack, plus installation, rearranging, additional air conditioning etc...
I'm making room and shifting some things around. The Dell R7610 (which is the original system I bought for the cloud game server) is being retired, so that's 2U right there.
God, i love this guy b/ground, all those bottle drinks. A bottle of gin with a founder edition = perfecto. Personally its better than those typical tech channel
I keep watching these videos for hints of upgrades I could do to my own computers at home. Then the reality hits me - I can afford to have only one of a) Craft Computing's idea of a decent computer setup, and b) a home to keep it in. Oh well, it's nice to dream.
As an Aussie, I feel compelled to let you know that Galaxy is Australian! If I'm going to have national pride over anything, it may as well be the hops! haha
OMG! EPYC server build?? Cloud gaming?? Overkill build?? Star Trek and Star Wars references? OH MY GOD, LANDO CALRISSIAN'S CAPE IS FLAPPING!!! *squee!* ☺️
Glad to see more Epyc content! Interesting to see the 3x 1070 Ti replaced with a pair of old Tesla K80s, assuming the next video will go into more detail around that.
It would be interesting if you virtualized a gaming pc and used something like Steam Remote play to test it while playing a game. I’ll curious how good the gaming experience would be with a streamed game using a gpu passed through to the virtual gaming pc.
Where's the beer description? Did Noom not "let" you drink a beer during this build? I get it though, most of us have absolutely sported the infamous dad-bod. Love the props in your B-roll footage!
Its good you now have an AMD EPYC server build this time. This may become your master server build while the other Intel sever builds are back up machines or additional servers in conjunction in sharing the workloads from the EPYC server build🤔😁
I had the the same issue with cooler when I moved my 1950x server from a tower to a 4U, ended up going the nh-U9 as it was the only thing that fit properly. While capable, its louder and runs about 10C hotter than the nh-u14 did. Apparently on intel the u12s will just fit, but on AMD the extra socket height rules it out. I may just end up watercooling the server case like I've already done with my new 5950x workstation
ayyyyyyyy glad we could help, keep up the good work :)
Dude you guys are the best.
That time one mad scientist finds another...
Thank you for supporting, this has been a very interesting series for us home lab enthusiasts. Let the series go on!!!

Could not have said it better myself.
I love the callback joke to Wendell being able to teleport through telecom racks.
About that, I don't think Jeff didn't beam Wendell over because he don't have a telecom hack.
I think he didn't want to execute the pentagram ritual to start the beam over process ...
Technically Steve was trying to summon Linus. I think he just Ping'd Wendell by mistake.
@@CraftComputing Yes but Steve got cold feet and disturbed the pentagram. So he got Wendell wearing an LTT hoody. I can still remember Steve screaming "NOT HIM!" when we started hearing Linus' voice.
More and more im concerned the techtubers have a cult...
@@angrynerd2103 oh they have a cult. I'm just worried about the dark turn it seems to have taken. Is 54000+ in R23 actually worth summoning Satan? Some would say yes.
The quality of that B reel with the toys is why I come back.
One of these days we'll hook you up with a dual 64 core epyc. 256 threads will really blow your socks off
I promise to use my newfound power only for good.
Most of the time anyway.
@@CraftComputing I really have to look into making a server for myself to store files my network/personal cloud, just sounds like a fun project
"If it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing" ... This guy is my spirit animal
Pretty sure he spends more time tinkering with this 12 Gamers 1 CPU server than actually gaming
After all that is half the fun, isnt it?
That's pretty much what I would do
Well he gets to play with awesome hardware and the family can play videogames.
Win - Win
Big congrats with the new family member. Crossing my fingers that everything will go smoothly.
This video was about showing off the LEGO collection first and gaming server second. Awesome either way !!
4:29 Whoa what a drop! Congrats on the new kid!!
11:12 the processor was so powerful it went back in time and corrupted the footage.
Love the pun!
Congrats on the new baby on the way!!!
That server is unreal I love seeingservers with fully memory ranks!
Absolutely loved the empty server case decorated with the X-Wing and A-Wings so it looked like a hangar! Hardware obviously was insane, but the little decorative touches really made this video
Congrats on the new addition the the fam, dude! Awesome video as always.
“If it’s worth doing, it’s worth overdoing.” Love it!
props for sourcing this stuff in today's market
I can tell Jeff had fun with this one! B role was extra good this video. And he can't stop smiling
Congratulations on your soon-to-be-new baby!

I heard the fans ramp towards the end of the test!! Awesome video!!
been watching your channel for a while. Its great to see how you progressed and your videos are pro quality :)
Loved the transporter beaming in of the CPU!
Wow, this is so cool. One day I will do a project like this but it will be 2nd hand eBay parts for me lol
Sorry did I miss you mention the NVME drives you are using? Could t find it in the description. Great video as always. I got one of those 12 bay 1U racks you recommended. Amazing space saver.
The drives are Intel Optane P905s as best I can tell. And yeah, those Chenbro servers are incredible.
The 50's style art deco music over the assembly montage is oddly soothing.
Nothing can beat the chill music and vibes of your content
Thanks, I appreciate it!

Good to see Tree House on the show. It's a bit of a drive for me as its in "Nowhere Massachusetts" but still worth the time and tolls on the Mass Pike
Congrats on the new server! Oh, and the new kid, that's also pretty cool I guess... :D
Hey congratz on the kid! in a couple year you will need a 13th VM for him/her
Congrats on the next kiddo!
According to your Amazon link I used, this is called a 'Tetrahexaconta-core' cpu. :-)
Congratulations on the new gamer to be

loved the Lego addition to this video 🤣
LOVE the Star Trek bits!
Internal screaming in "I don't need this"
Cool project, congrats on the family growing 🙂
Yeah with EPYC servers and lots of GPU I'v had servers that took almost 45min to post, makes troubleshooting a nightmare...
Me: makes my PC boot fast, gets like 30 seconds.
Me: adds dual 10G SFP+ server card
PC: boots 5 minutes
I don't know if you can do it with your particular card(s), but on e.g. LSI SAS HBAs, you can remove the UEFI ROM if you don't need boot support.
@@bambinone I was talking about network card.
Though I do have other otherwise fast PC that gets slow down by RAID card
@@Arek_R. I know. Some NICs have flashable ROM.
@@Arek_R. Same thing might apply though. I disabled functions of the pcie NIC that I don't need in motherboard settings to speed up booting
Use sensors and home automation to automate the pc booting when you get nearby.
That was its already booted when you want to use it.
Congratulations on your new child!!!! My first child was only just born on the 18th of July!
Now this, is Epic

Oh, didn’t know yet. Congrats!

How well is the Tesla K80 at handling modern titles? Can you run AAA games in FullHD at acceptable framerates if you use each card for 4 VMS?
it's an gtx780 performance, on all 4 VM's it's ok to 1080P Low gameplays.
