Looks nice and impressive, how are the temps and the power draw??

HammerON · May 21, 2018

Running at 3.4GHz, the temps range from 45C to 51C.
I am just leaving her at stock turbo boost for now. Going to MI for a couple weeks to take the family to see the in laws. When I get back I am going to see if I can get her to 4.0 to 4.2 GHz stable while crunching.
As far as power draw, I need to check it out and post in the "How Efficient is your cruncher" thread. I also want to check my other two systems...

Boatvan · May 22, 2018

It's been a minute since I checked in. My numbers have been all over the place lately because I've been out of town a couple of times recently. Call me overly cautious, but I completely power down my farm when I'm out of the house for more than a workday. My buddy's server (similar model to my servers) caught on fire recently and destroyed his apartment while he was at work one day. Faulty RAID battery. Anyhow, I'm also incredibly oblivious and lazy so I had systems down for a bit. I'm settled down now and back to crunching full force. Hitting that 9 mil mark soon! @HammerON that's a mighty fine looking new cruncher you got there!

Toothless · May 22, 2018

Welp, got the newest addition of my compy family finished today minus storage. Running wcg at 75% thread count for now to see if my virtual machines on the same rig will hold.

I'm massively behind as I've not even updated the thread with mine as I promise.. Damn it I need a kick up the arse!!

Will be very interesting to see what it manages but I think to be honest, the best w/crunch is the Ryzen...

@HammerON
That CPU must have cost a small fortune!! 18 cores? that is nuts!!

AMD RYZEN Threadripper 1950X 16-Core / 32 Threads 3.4 GHz Socket sTR4 180W YD195XA8AEWOF Desktop Processor
Newegg

~~$999.99~~
$879.99

Intel Core i9-7980XE Skylake X 18-Core 2.6 GHz LGA 2066 165W BX80673I97980X Desktop Processor
Newegg

$1,890.87

I wonder...2.15x the price, 18 vs. 16 cores, 165W vs. 180W, when does the i9 break even. Power savings vs. retail prices. Then there is the overclock, will it actually out Crunch the Threadripper? And at what cost?

Toothless · May 24, 2018

Started this thing on Monday with the new processors and it's at far along, whew. Before anyone asks, yes I named it after Maban since he is the major reason it got finished in the first place.

Maban · May 24, 2018

I'm special.

4x4n · May 26, 2018

I just noticed today that a have a bunch of invalid wu's only in MCM. I have no errors just the invalids. I have tons of valid wu's in MCM so I don't understand why I have the invalid ones. Also, not even sure what invalid wu's mean as it looks as though you still are credited with points. Does anyone else have invalid wu's?

Norton · May 26, 2018

No invalid MCM work for me- is this on your 2700X or another system?

4x4n · May 26, 2018

Yes it is. I have been running at just stock settings as well so I'm not sure why I have these. :confused:

It might be a Ryzen-related issue, I only run OET, SCC, and OZ on my Ryzen setups. No issues with MCM on my Opteron 4P or Intel setups though

manofthem · May 28, 2018

Been having rough weather here lately, and I think something messed with my Ryzen rig last night. It's running hot now, on the high 70s compared to before in the low 50s. Pump seems to be on and running, not sure yet.

Gotta mess with it, just no time. :rolleyes:

Gotta mess with it, just no time.

Think I got it settled. The other night the power died and came right back on. PCs rebooted and I didn't think much of it other than to get everything logged back in.

Now when that happened, it must have done something to the water pump. Even though it looked like it was running, apparently something wasn't running correctly. Cpu was idling around 75* when it usually crunches around 53*.

(not so coincidentally, when that happened, our AC acted up. It came back on but wasn't running cold. Had to shut it off for a few minutes right then, and then it came back on)

So I gave it a good shut down, let it sit for a few minutes, and then rebooted. Seems that did the trick and cpu was running back at normal; resumed crunching and all was well. Thankfully nothing major.

Come to think of it, need to check on it again since we've had so much crazy weather lately.

4x4n · Jun 1, 2018

Just an update on the invalid wu's I was having.

When running default setting I noticed the the speed jumps all over the place, from core to core, and from 3925 to 4075. Voltage goes up and down too. I set it to all cores a 4ghz with static voltage and I haven't had an invalid since. I was driving me crazy anyway watching the voltage jump from 1.25 to 1.4v. :kookoo:

I have the exact same thing happening with my 2700x. Think I'll try running 4ghz with a static voltage like you suggest. Quick question for you @4x4n what voltage did you use 1.25?

4x4n · Jun 3, 2018

I had used 1.25 before but it was getting errors. I ran prime and one core would error within 5 min, so I ended up at 1.2875 and llc of 2. That keeps the voltage pretty steady.

Never checked it with prime before, would just fire up WCG and see if it would crash. :laugh:

It ran for 4 or 5 days with no crashes so I though it was fine, but then I saw a bunch of errored wu's on my WCG page. Now it's been over a week with no errors or invalids.

HammerON · Jun 3, 2018

Well after a good week of the three rigs crunching while I have been on vacation, something has happened. All three rigs only reported in once this morning and the ppd was real low for all three. I am wondering if it is not a internet issue. My ppd was down yesterday as well.
Sadly, it will have to correct itself or wait until I get home next Sunday.

The 3770K crunched it's last WU May 7 2018, may it find happiness in retirement :toast:

In it's place comes a Xeon E5 2683v3 with its 14c/28t goodness- my X99 upgrade that was months in the pipeline. Wouldn't have been possible without the assistance of the great @4x4n who helped me troubleshoot my gear and provided me hardware as well :respect:

Even with the clock speed reduction this CPU still looks to outpace the 3770K by a WIDE margin and it stays frosty in my loop at 40C loaded. Can't wait for 20c/22c Broadwell CPUs to drop in price in the second hand market :laugh:

HammerON · Jun 10, 2018

Great crunching CPU :toast:

Great to see it up and running. :rockout:

You should see about 15k a day with windows and 22k if you go with linux.

A little update on this.

I switched to 4011 bios since it has the latest agesa update. Since then I have been steadily decreasing voltage and now am at 1.26125 still with llc 2. it's been good for 2 days at that setting so I still might be able to go a little lower. Even with the decease in voltage my temps are pretty much the same though.

thebluebumblebee · Jun 12, 2018

Here's what my 3220T that has been running for months was doing. Cycling between 50 and 200%. Also note the Cinnamon error that I get when I try to restart:

Edit: I've got some HOT days coming up, to I think I'll work on updating the OS on this system.

HammerON · Jun 12, 2018

So I am a little perplexed at why, but when my 7980 rig becomes unresponsive, my other two rigs do not update. The 7980 is connected via Ethernet to the ASUS router and the other two are wireless. So when I got home Sunday and restarted the 7980 rig, I was then able to update all three and hence why I had such a high ppd yesterday. I did notice that Ubuntu wanted to update the 7980 rig and this may have been causing the system to become unresponsive. It ran stable through the last day after I updated it. I am watching it close now that I am back home. Going to possibly switch out PSU's between the 7980 rig and the EPYC rig.
