I've built several Intel servers but am now looking to build my first server using an AMD proc (EPYC Rome to be specific): 1) Is there any difference between box vs tray (ie, warranty)? 2) What's the scoop on the HPE kits I see on Provantage? Can these be used on Supermicro motherboards? 3)...

I am upgrading my epyc 7742 retail cpus to the 7h12 versions. I am selling one of the 7742 in perfect condition. I only used it briefly to test in my vmware 7.0 setup using the tyan s8030 to ensure everything was perfect. I am asking $3k and will include fedex shipping. I just paid a lot...

I got a 64-core EPYC 7H12. I compare it with Intel Xeon-W3275M former my workstation CPU. First, the Xeon-W 3275M has omitted the multi-socket function and got 64-lane PCI-E. On the other hand, EPYC has 128-lane PCI-E and has high performance, so both are very attractive CPUs as Workstation...

Hi to everybody I am planning to build a low power ESXI homelab and i am thinking on Athlon 240GE or 3000G but i can't find any info regarding stability of ESXI on these small processors, anyone has something similar running right now ?

In November of 2019 I first got my hands on an AMD EPYC Naples engineering sample. I thought it was really cool you could overclock 32-cores for a lot cheaper than a 2990WX and achieve mostly the same performance. Once I saw that there were next-generation EPYC Rome engineering samples floating...

Hi guys, I recently bought two Epyc 7551 ES chips from eBay and have been encountering memory instability issues. I followed another post here about 1st gen Epyc overclocking using Zenstates and I'm currently running 3.3GHz 1.175V with SMT off on both chips with only VRM cooling being a real...

Hi, I'm looking for some advice on building a powerful workstation for some specific use cases that my team has. I came here after watching this video and checking this detailed post about the same. I really liked the details provided and how this setup can absolutely annihilate similar ones...

I've been busy hibernating thus lost track of what is what and really can't seem to get any straight answers out of Google these days, even reviews tend to be more 'sponsor' agnostic these days... So I ask fellow oldies who hibernate with their eyes wide open... Do I go say Intel Platinum 8180...

Hello! I have built a machine with 2 AMD Epyc 7282 CPUs on a Supermicro H11DSi board. It has 8 RAM slots per socket. I have 8 sticks of 16GB DDR4-3200 registered ECC memory, that is 4 sticks per socket. The problem I'm having is - when the system is fully assembled multiple benchmarks show...

I have for sale HP C7000 Bladecenters with BL465 G7 and BL685 G7 blades. These blades have AMD Opteron 6174 chips installed however I have AMD Opteron 6276 chips for these blades included. There is no ram or hard drives. A bit more info. I have 16 of these chassis, I have enough blades to...

Hello, I am considering an upgrade from Opteron 4180 to Opteron 4384 and I was wondering if anyone has experience running a 64-bit VMs inside a nested ESXi on this CPU. In otherwords if it supports AMD Rabit Virtualization Indexing that is required for this.

Hi. Forgive the newbie question! I have an 8 x 12TB disk Zfs RAID0 array running on the motherboard's SATA connectors on an AMD X399 motherboard. Read speeds top out at about 800 MB/sec. This is slower than I expected. Each disk can sustain over 200 MB/sec so the RAID0 array should, in theory...

SOLD I'm pretty much done with my encoding project and want to get back to gaming, so I'm hoping someone is interested in buying my ThreadRipper 1950x and AsRock Tachi micro-ATX motherboard. Motherboard Info: https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/X399M Taichi/index.asp Comes with original box...

Hi everyone. I have a SuperMicro H8DGU-F board, dual socket AMD G34 board. Basically all the parts from this setup were from eBay, and everything worked until I tried to change out the CPUs. Specs CPUS : 2x AMD Opteron 6274 [not functioning] (Previously was working with 2x AMD Opteron 6172)...

Hi, my first post here after discovering this useful forum! I have at home a PC running ESXi 6.7.0, let's call it my "homelab server". It is nothing special, it has an AMD FX-8350, 32GB RAM DDR3, a 512GB SSD for the ESXI and some VM's (Server Core 2016 and a couple of W10 VM's). I'd like to...

Just stumbled across this - EPYC3251D4I-2T Includes intel 10gbe NICs Looks perfect for a homelab cluster

Hi , i am a student i am planning to build a freenas for my home data backup and plex purpose . Can anyone suggest me any power efficient processor for this build . suggest anything except atom c servers processors . Please suggest some processor which supports ECC memory . And not a Atom...

I actually built this in 2009 but it runs up to the present day. I use this for a big mixture of gaming, video editing, video capture, media conversion, audio production/capture/editing/restoration and photo editing. Poor thing does take a hammering. It's been water cooled since it started life...

Just purchased an an AMD Epyc server to set up as a NAS for a small company. It's the Supermicro A+ Server 2113S-WN24RT with 24 NVME drive bays. It uses the H11SSW-NT server board and wondered if anyone had any experience setting one up with OmniOS and Napp-it. Haven't had any luck so far with...
