I love the irony of AMD calling it 4004 😂
-
Ah typical, just when I ordered 48 more 7950x nodes. lol.
-
This is amazing for the homelab audience aswell. AMD really did a homerun with this one!
-
Here I was hoping for an actual new product line like the introduction of something like “AM5+” with 32+4+4+4 PCIe lanes and 4 memory channels, silly me.
-
Really wish they would have included extra PCI-E lanes. Something like a 4/8c chip with 48 or 64 PCI-E v5 lanes. There's not much out there for those of us wanting that kind of connectivity other than Ebay EPYC x002/x003 chips/boards.
-
Takes me back to the Opteron days
-
unless you need more PCIe lanes, 1st gen EPYC's on Ebay are a killer deal, i snagged a 7551p combo for ~800 with 128gb ECC ram and a Supermicro board.
-
Wish we had more lanes / PLX chip and RDIMM support
-
Let’s just hope they don’t remove features from future Desktop Ryzen CPUs to justify the Epyc Line.
-
So excited for this, wish it had more PCIE lanes but this will be a nice upgrade for my Xeon v2 NAS once motherboards are available for the DIY market.
-
neat....definitely looking forward to the offerings from other vendors as well 🤔
-
I want this for my next desktop build. I built my desk out of two server racks. And this would be an awesome new desktop upgrade for me.
-
$90 is a small price for the extra cores
-
Looking forward to some small non-rack builds
-
Still kind of mixed feelings about this kind of platform for Homelab given current DDR5 UDIMM ECC prices. I bought 256GB of DDR4 3200 RDIMMs for $400, and and you're lucky to get 64GB of DDR5 for $300. Yikes. Really nice video Patrick this release has really caught me by surprise!
-
Do they glue the CPU heatsink mounting backplate to the back of the board like previous AsRock Rack Ryzen boards?
-
I think it sounds like you bit your tongue before the in studio shots or else I'm going insane 😂 Cool box though, it'd be great for some basic Ai stuff too.
-
Any idea if this thing could support internal storage other than M.2 I see SATA ports does it have internal mounts for hard drives? I have 4 x 20TB Reds that I would love to fit in to this thing.
-
Is this chassis available anywhere? I haven't been able to find the 2U1G-B650 anywhere.
-
Does this part make any sense to put into a video or photo editing home build vs a normal ryzen or similar thread ripper? It looks like the base frequency might be higher than some of the non pro TRs. Thanks
