No he's just Excited for Ryzen, did you see their video on it? XD

>Stay tuned for "WE LOST ALL OUR DATA HOLY $HIT! pt. 2"

he is retarded

Most people still watching are doing so because they know he's a retard and want to watch him fuck up.

He's a shill.

I OC'd my 2x E5-2690 v2 build base clock 100 to 103 MHz. Ran great until the $570 mobo shit the bed 13 months in. Don't do that.

heh. That'd be the end of it.

I expected him to pull out some sweet 80mm radiators. He never did.

I think it would've been the only logical thing for that case.

>overclocked
Depends on what it's used for. Overclocking the servers in an HPC cluster could be useful.

>watercooled
It's not all that uncommon.
coolitsystems.com/index.php/data-center.html

Linus is a lost cause. He just panders to the gaymen culture bullshit, where knowledge is optional but buzzwords are a must.

Why do they even have a local server? Do they really need to save so much 4k footage that they never use? It's so fucking stupid.

I was on board until he said refurbed SATA SSD boot drive in RAID. RAID, even RAID 1, on a boot drive using the mobo is just bad news all around. Stick with the PCIe boot drive.

>>watercooled
>>server
>>overlocked
That's actually a thing. Financial firms buy them for high-frequency trading. Most server workloads are trivially parallelizable so clockspeed doesn't matter much, but HFT is very latency-sensitive, since the business model is premised on getting your orders in a few milliseconds faster than the next guy. So the HFT people, unlike the rest of the server market, wants a few cores with the highest possible clock speed. And they have enough money that people will build machines that cater to that market.

This is also why if you look through a list of Xeon models you'll occasionally see among all the zillion-core ones a quad-core with a rated clock over 4GHz.

Are you retarded? Google data centers are watercooled you fuck

This is why people say consumerism is bad. His videos promote people to watch thinking it's cool making homebrew solutions like this for real business needs and then it fucks up. I feel bad for his editors where they have to constantly risk server fuck ups because of this asshole. Like it's basically spitting in their face at this point. We need to force companies to stop giving him money by not watching his videos anymore.

>Is he retarded?
No doubt. Legitimately retarded.

>is called Linus
>gets a boner from "server" form factors
>doesn't know how to use Linux

It's like Tool Time but for computers.

Isn't this like the 5th time he's done this? He's run out of ideas. He should have kept it a 3-4 man show.

Do people not realise that Linus has multiple channels?

One is basically marketing and consumerism but he has decent channels and talks about a variety of topics

Why does he own a warehouse and yet keep his server in a fucking bathroom? Does he need to have easy access to all his donated junk that bad?

eh I don't think any who watches him takes anything seriously, he just does a bunch of random 'what if" type stuff. Like that computer in a table, or the one where he made the gaming system that can play 8 games at once, or where he does that SSD raid 0 array with 30 drives or whatever it was.

It's kind of odd though, linus fucks things up, alot. Why would I give him free hardware to advertise my product if there's a reasonable chance he'll do something stupid, it will break and make my product look bad?

I just check in on linus every so often to see what went he fucked up. I like watch Level1Techs because they know their shit.

>not storing your server in the fridge

"""server"""

It's just fucking regular consumer grade hardware in a server rack, used for exporting videos, did you even watch the video?

Yeah I get it. I'm just saying it's shitting on good practices and design philosophy. I know nobody is going to take him seriously but we shouldn't reward stupidity.

>It's kind of odd though, linus fucks things up, alot.
No clue why he has so many problems. Hardware shouldn't break all the time but he manages it.

>Why would I give him free hardware to advertise my product if there's a reasonable chance he'll do something stupid, it will break and make my product look bad?
Bad PR is good PR?

The warehouse is for their multiple sets and all the free shit companies send them. No need to keep your servers out in the open with all the wires and shit.

About a third of our primary datacenter is water cooled. I'm not on the facilities side, but I'm told that it's much cheaper to run and only slightly more expensive to maintain compared to air.

Overclocking seems silly to me though. Even with all the redundancies we have in place, losing a host breaks things. Some applications don't like being vMotioned, etc. It seems like OC'ing a server would be asking it to fail.

I'd rather have my server or central rendering unit against a wall in an open warehouse than in a fucking bathroom.

>not having your expensive server on the bathroom counter
>not running all you cabling over and inside the actual sink
>not keeping the mains water connected to the bathroom as well

How do I trust he isn't subliminally putting in his dumbfuck antics into these "decent channels"?

So far everything points to him being a dumbfuck.

>industry
>some canadian cuck

And get paid fuckload for it through subscription s

>what is raw footage

Yeah dude, they don't even use half that footage. It just kind of sits there for unspecified projects. They need to either offsite their storage or trim down the fluff. Designers should not be allowed to run wild with unreasonable data storage limits. It ends up making for sloppy editing.

his server isn't inside a bathroom for a long time now

let me guess, you stream movies and music, right?

Guarantee that they do not need 1PB of storage for what they're doing. I should know, I've worked in a special effects studio for a while and we only had 2 10PB storage facilities for all of our content (and we had ~100 people working on around 3 different movies).

>trust
>implying you're stupid enough to use any one source of information as an authority on a topic

People like you really are the reason that the six year old mentality of "we should just stop fighting wars and hurting each other" doesn't work. Without your kind, we could build a society to make every vision of utopia thus far look like chaotic, miserable crap.

Change your ways or get off my board.

And its directly over their "pedobyte project" tink with the 100 10 tb drives.

>2 10pb storage facilities
were you working on 32k 500fps video or something? That's such a ridiculous amount of storage that it's hard to quantify.

>Overclocking the servers in an HPC cluster could be useful
Not really unless you're nigger rigging a Beowulf cluster using parts that are already trash
The increase in failure rates, possible corruption of data, and downtime would negate any performance improvement
>This is also why if you look through a list of Xeon models you'll occasionally see among all the zillion-core ones a quad-core with a rated clock over 4GHz.
This isn't overclocking, the problem with overclocking it's that it increases the possibility of data corruption and it increases failure rates, which cause downtime
All of them catastrophic for mission critical and sensitive stuff like HFT
The 4+ Ghz Xeon's are golden chips that are guaranteed to work well at said speeds

>the computer in the table

pretty much, there is a thing though the newcomers treat him seriously

Didn't that already happen once?

It's not what's on their server that's for sure
That server is for finished videos only, that 8k desk video he made probably is half a terabyte raw by itself, he has plenty of "working" computers to edit and fuck up his raw video footage at whim

He makes "fat bank" from doing interesting shit, doesn't even have to shill, that just a bonus.
Don't YOU want to see a water cooled / overclocked server?

Almost, they recovered the RAID array. Linus was shitting bricks.

Why?

>Are you retarded? Google data centers are watercooled you fuck

No, they're not, you fucking idiot. That would be a plumbing nightmare.

It's the server rooms themselves that are water cooled, the servers are air-cooled.

Anyone who overclocks is retarded.

If their application requires it it easily pays for itself to simply buy a faster chip. Frankly for anything high performance I'd go pre-built, only stuff I assemble myself is cheap shitboxes where performance isn't an issue.

LEAVE LINUS ALONE

>spending more money for the same thing pays for itself

unless you need something faster than the top-bin chip that they'll sell you.

>This isn't overclocking, the problem with overclocking it's that it increases the possibility of data corruption and it increases failure rates, which cause downtime
>All of them catastrophic for mission critical and sensitive stuff like HFT

Shit, the first overclocked servers were expected to fail in under a year, but people bought em.
theregister.co.uk/2010/10/13/appro_hf1_server/
theregister.co.uk/2010/12/17/sgi_rackable_overclocked_server/

And apparently they're still buying em.
insidehpc.com/2016/08/icc-updates-vega-financial-servers-with-latest-intel-broadwell-e-microarchitecture/

If putting nitrous in your servers makes you millions of dollars by being faster than the other guy, you don't really care if a few of em blow a gasket and need to be replaced.

My CPU has been overclocked at 4.5 sense 2011.
LRN2 COMPUTAH.
Seriously though, just understanding the hardware goes a long way.

Casualfag

Overclocking low end parts is where all the gains are.

5 years ago I built my mom a $250 shitbox with a $27 sempron 270 (2.7ghz am2 single core) and Radeon hd4200 IGP. Unlocked the second core and overclocked the CPU to 3.8ghz, overclocked the IGP from 500mhz to 1ghz.

End result was a build very close in everyday use performance to my E8400 @ 4ghz build I had at the time, that was all-in built for the cost of the E8400 CPU itself.

That and my current i5 2500k @ 4.8ghz is still faster than every single Intel CPU you can buy brand new stock. I had a CPU 5 years from the future just from half an hour of overclocking.

>Retard car analogies in my Sup Forums
I don't think how irrelevant and retarded people oust themselves as when they say these things, even jokingly

you can't risk losing hundreds of thousands dollars in data center servers if something goes wrong due to your lack of self preservation

What's your cinebench score?
My dual core hyperthreaded laptop posted a score that was well into the records of stock 2500k's I just want to know if that's actually true?

Well call me names if you want. Fact is you're wrong, the HFT crowd most certainly does use overclocked servers, warranties and fault-tolerance and safety be damned, and they do it because the higher clock speed makes enough of a difference that it makes them money. Go read the links.

>It has been over 6 years since LinusTechTips was okay
Where has time gone

For a data center, it's most likely a bad idea, I think the Idea was most people would find it interesting and what's he really keeping on there anyways, were talking about LTT not Google.
Then again, most places just have a big ass parts room, something breaks you pop it out, swap it, set it and press the button.

It's not going to be faster than any of the 8 thread CPUs in cinebench but for games it will. It got just over 600 cb as I remember

>when ya got a whole office of people working on your youtube channel and it STILL has fewer subs than vloggers and faggots yelling at video games

At least he gets more money than them through all of the shilling. God I hope so.

No, you won't, unless you're an actual electrical engineer specialised in computer architecture, and then it's still cheaper just go to work, earn money and buy proper hardware, because at that point your time is far too valuable for something like that. And if you do want to do this sort of stuff for fun on your own time, there are a whole lot more interesting projects to undertake than ricing gaming "rigs". Take Andrew "bunnie" Huang, for instance.

There's a reason why serious hosting companies or compute farms don't rely on hardware cobbled together by amateurs. I'm sure a few of the major ones like Google and Amazon have electrical engineers on staff, and even then they largely rely on commodity hardware.

Wow, you made a setting in you BIOS configuration screen, please tell me how I can be as l33t as you!

>And if you do want to do this sort of stuff for fun on your own time, there are a whole lot more interesting projects to undertake than ricing gaming "rigs".
yeah how dare someone have a hobby that you don't like. The nerve of those people.

I'm not wrong, you definitely are retarded for thinking some dumbass car analogy is ever relevant, useful or welcome here
But say I ignore your fucking special Ed analogy (I won't), "blowing a gasket" would mean loss of possibly years of data, loss of a host which may be inportant, and loss of that servers task (which I assume is running 24/7, making money and making promises 24/7) people who aren't Linus want reliability above all else in servers
But stop making car analogies they make you look like you found this website on google

Pressure he /you got those replays because board term "anyone" not specifying server.
>Wow, you made a setting in you BIOS configuration screen, please tell me how I can be as l33t as you!
With that said you pretty much said "nothing" here.
"wow I need to make sarcastic remarks because I have nothing of value to add but still feel defensive!"

>changing a few numbers on a screen
>hobby

That is retarded. To be fair I also think watching football is retarded, but at least those people can make the argument that it's more cost-effective to sit in front of the TV than to buy all the gear and become football players.

>loss of possibly years of data, loss of a host which may be inportant, and loss of that servers task (which I assume is running 24/7, making money and making promises 24/7) people who aren't Linus want reliability above all else in servers
Oh gee, you can't possibly replicate data to more than one machine or anything. Nope, it's totally impossible to design systems that can survive one of the servers failing. Nobody can do that.

>John Lee, vice president of advanced technology solutions at the blade and rack server vendor, says that Appro was approached by a number of financial-services companies that are not thrilled about Moore's Law and the effect it has had on clock speed. For many of their algorithms, having extra cores does not help their applications run faster — having faster clocks does.

>These financial customers — presumably big banks and hedge funds that are engaged in high-frequency trading — had a bit of PC envy, with gamer workstations being overclocked to give players that extra bit of performance, and asked Appro to create a prototype overclocked server.

>The HF1 server is based on Intel's 5520 chipset, and overclocks the six-core X5680 processors to 4.4GHz. These chips normally run at 3.33GHz, with a Turbo Boost frequency of 3.6GHz if a bunch of the cores are not being used. At their 3.33GHz speed, they dissipate 130 watts; Appro has not said how hot they run at 4.4GHz, but Lee said that a normal two-socket Westmere-EP server using the 3.33GHz chips would dissipate about 400 watts of heat and the HF1 pumps out about 1,000 watts.

>Appro is shipping the HF1 server to a limited number of financial-services customers now, and will begin something akin to volume shipments in the first quarter of 2011. If you have to ask what the HF1 costs, you can't afford it. Just like lingerie.

>every single Intel CPU you can buy brand new stock
Don't be a retard, you mean most stock quad core CPUs with no hyperthreading. A 6600k posts a little over 600 stock and a 6700k posts close to 1000 stock
Wow I've never seen anybody actually arguing against the concept of overclocking

I didn't read that but as long as there's no retard car analogy in that I'll tolerate it

blender also keeps their renderfarm in a bathroom

>cost-effective
That is the initial point of overclocking, sometimes just getting more out of hardware and extending time between upgrades, which also saves money.

Have you seen what cable sports packages cost these days? plenty of people spend two grand a year just to watch numbers go up on a screen for a few hours on the weekends.

here's another car analogy for you

A server isn't just a glorified hard drive you know

>not understanding the meaning of "pt. 2"

That's hardly overclocking in the sense Sup Forums and other amateurs use it. That's just a hardware company doing what hardware companies do. Making informed decisions when designing their hardware and setting parameters.

Blender are also fucking niggers. Point being?

You're proving my point, a stock 6600k is as fast as my 5 year old CPU. The thing is I paid $199 5 years ago for mine, while jewtel is asking $300 for a 6600k.

i'm a fan of his stuff but imo he is slowly losing his touch and pandering to the outlandish LOLSORANDUM crowd more and more.

Wish he would go back to old school videos like back from 2010 - 2012

He used to be a lifeguard at my local swimming pool. There is a roughly 50% chance my Dad yelled at him once.

>This is why people say consumerism is bad.

People who throw around buzzwords like "consumerism" without actually understanding them are what is bad.

i was thinking the same thing lol

Depends entirely on how you set up your environment. If you have enough money and operate at a large enough scale, you certainly can make your servers into expendable things that you can survive the loss of. Plenty of places do it.

Put the goalposts down user. They're staying in one place here.

That is most certainly overclocking in the sense Sup Forums and other amateurs use it. Someone is taking a chip that's rated to run at one speed and setting it to run at a higher speed. And then testing and burning it in to decide if its stable (or stable enough) at that speed, and then using it for something where the extra speed is important. Who does it - some gamer in his basement, or a systems integrator selling servers to hedge funds - is entirely immaterial.

The same way you're a driver whether you're behind the wheel of your own car going to the store, or behind the wheel of a taxi driving other people around.

Did he really or are you just bullshitting?

I know the 2500k is great and all but don't become retarded trying to defend yourself
Mine was $220 and I only needed a $20 cooler to reach 4.7 GHz

Yes really.

During his tenure as a lifeguard me and my Dad were at the pool. The staff got bitchy with Dad over some safety bullshit so he started swearing at everyone and we stormed out. If Linus was working that day he definitely got screamed at.

Views are views and nowadays young kids are the gold mine, just look at how well those superhero videos were doing. It sucks but for someone like Linus who is really doubling down on this shit he's going to milk it.

Seems legit, from Linus's linkedin

That's not what consumerism is.

This is a separate and much more grievous error. The idea that every joe blow's opinion about everything is just as valuable as those of experts who have spent decades studying and working in the trade. That's not consumerism, that's narcissism. This is why we have SJWs.

Really?

I don't want to believe that's the case, but Linus does it, and apparently Hillary Clinton too, if the google results are correct.

The bathroom is the perfect place for his server to shit itself
