Can't really have a motherboard showcase without gayming shit, fuck.

fuggheug

do we know yet if naples parts will work on these?

That's a really big board...

They're pin compatible, so there should be no reason it shouldn't.

More than likely AMD will release a Naples 24 or 32 core part for HEDT to counter Intel's 18 core thermonuclear reactor

for you

If I took off the external cap, would it hurt?

>quad channel memory
>triple m.2 4x
>4-way 16x PCI-E

any price prediction on this

When are they going to announce the threadripper and naples CPUs? AMD computex appears to be tomorrow, don't know if NDAs will drop at midnight.

Given that X390 boards run up to $220 or so for the higher end ones, I reckon this will in the $300-400 range like early X99 boards, with eventual "budget" options like MSI's SLI PLUS at around the $200 mark.

That socket is gigantic

Excellent for heat dissapation though.

64 PCIe lanes!


AMD isn't fucking around, they're going for the throat

32 ckre ryzen wjth quad vegas

>64 PCIe lanes.
>2 GPUs 16x
>3 M.2 NVME SSD 4x
>20 lanes remaining.
>Asrock propably going madman and making ITX or MATX

>ITX
That huge fucking socket

Well, I can dream, but you're gonna have to be pretty nuts to attempt it.

>asscock
They will do it, boyo. The madmen.

Here be ANUS

Mother of God that's unholy lot of pins.

4094, shares the same socket as 32 core Naples.
Meanwhile Skylake server is 3500 pins while HEDT Skylake is 2066 pins

The 4094 is clearly there for the future(3-4 year) compatibility and in case Intel releases a higher core count(like 18), and AMD can shit out their own 24 core part based on Naples assuming they're not all sold out to servers

oh HOLY FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

I do not love gaymer stuff but damn this brotherhood of steel themed mb looks nice.

SOCKETLETS

WHEN WILL THEY LEARN

who the fuck cares about this. this is equal to AMD going MOAR CORES.

>64 PCIe lanes. tell me why i should fucking care bruv.

You shouldn't
Now fuck off

More X399
videocardz.com/69995/gigabyte-shows-x399-aorus-gaming-7-worlds-first-threadripper-motherboard

Are those LGA?

will /ourguys/ at AMD finally kill the intel jew?

It might be theoretically possible if they take a page out of Anus's playbook with their Maximus Impact and move some components on adjacent boards. The difference is that Ass-ooze uses this trick for nothing more than tacking on a sound card and more power delivery, but it can be used for so much more, like moving all the power, audio, M.2, and a bunch of other auxiliary features vertically.

Yes, its SP3r2 (now renamed TR4), a 4094 pin LGA socket.

No, they're Rape Grid Array

intel's 18 cores DOA

...

...

K, I'm getting a 32 core and OCing it to unholy levels.

...

>ryzen
>oc to unholy levels

What part of
>32 FUCKING CORES
did you not understand?

IT'S NOT FAIR!!!

Damn i already ordered ryzen ram and aio cooler, kill me

>aio cooler

Let's call it a CLC shall we

Ye i know but i will travel with the PC in summer and i won't have a big pile of fucking metal snap out of the socket

Use the default cooler you autist, AMD actually uses copper in that thing unlike intel.

dont worry senpai, just send me your stuff for free so you can buy threadripper with peace

I don't think 1800x comes with a stock cooler in my part of europe

If I knew for sure that it comes in the package I wouldn't get it

>this is equal to AMD going MOAR CORES.
this is AMD's board. what are you talking about?

I thought seriously but it's not worth it, not to mention I'm sure the Mobos will be expensive as fuck

fug

How can Soclet LGA2066 even compete?

Full cover block when?

Seeing bent pins on an LGA2011-3 on a daily basis, this does nothing to me

No, but it would be extremely painful

Dear god, what has AMD done to Intel.

I'm 100% positive the 1st PCIe will be blocked with a high-end air cooler mounted.

Depends on the cooler orientation and also it won't if you're using watercooling.

Also all the other slots are 16x anyway so just put the GPU there if it's triple slot

Probably yes, depending on which cooler and if backplate on GPU. D14 should fit, D15 will not, but D15S will. The spacing seems similar to many X99 boards, so you can use that as reference.

> (You)
>Depends on the cooler orientation
Have fun mounting the cooler in a non standard fashion on a non standard socket.
>it won't if you're using watercooling
True. Guess most "enthusiasts" will and since that monstrosity is targeted at them anyways..

whats with modern motherboards and all the tacky shit on them? it adds to cost but not performance. the newest example is covering the io ports with a stick of metal

STOP BULLYING INTEL

that socket is actually really big
I don't think I've ever seen a heat sink longer than the RAM slots

probably one of the cases where liquid cooling is a benefit. still who would liquid cool a $10k system?

at first i though 64 pcie lanes meant 64 gpus but then i realised x16.

64 fucking lanes?

Cryptoniggers and Machine learning markets are salivating

Do cryptoniggers actually benefit from that? Wouldn't multiple systems with more lanes per $ be better?

multiple systems cost more. you can have 64 asic miners on one system essentially. even the cheapest systems wont get you that sort of laneage

I think he is talking about cryptoresearchers not coinfags.

No, that's extra system cost and size cost.

This allows 4 full GPUs per socket, Ryzen/Kabylake only allow 1 full GPU, rest is form chipset, which is slow.

>professional gaming
wat

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the benefit of wider lanes in cryptoniggery very limited? I've seen a lot of setups with a cheapo ATX motherboard equipped with as many physical slots as possible and a shitload of riser cables to connect seven GPUs on one system with x1 links.

yeah nah, socket is wider than cooler

Because that's still cheaper than a complete new system, you will lose performance going from PCIe3 to PCie2 speeds with so many cards as cryptoniggery trashes the GPU much harder than games.

Are these still using gigabit nics or have they moved onto 5 gigabit?

This is pretty much useless apart from deep learning and "muh games (buys alienware internally)" use cases.

Some have 10GbE

>profesional gaming
Good goy, buy a 16 core CPU to play Counter-Strike

The just-announced asrock x299e-itx/ac does this, the madmen even got four memory slots on there

I wish itx boards would add a pcie riser option for cases like the M1 that have 3+ slot openings, would be handy as fuck to have an x1 or x4 cable to hook up shit like network or capture cards as well as a gpu in the main x16 slot

Been looking into using an m.2->pcie adapter to hook up my hdmi capture card in the M1

you could fit a fucking raspberry pi in that socket, holy fuck

10GbE

It actually looks about the same size as the heatsink mounting brackets on AM4 desu

Only this socket fills that entire space instead of looking stupid with a tiny socket in between two huge plastic brackets

As long as everything is x16 you can just use another slot

>still who would liquid cool a $10k system?
Power Mac G5 was liquid cooled

>even got four memory slots on there

So half the reason, which is memory capacity is gone with ITX boards?

Fuck no.

Maybe, the 3rd one would probably fit

Uhh... The point is that it supports quad channel memory, so with four slots you actually get full capability even on ITX.
Even with just four slots you're still looking at up to 64GB of RAM which is easily enough for a 16-core system. Even if we go by the 2GB-per-core guideline for Adobe Premiere, you'd still need just 32GB for a well-functioning system.

You know... looking at how big the fucking socket is and the base plate, I actually don't think these will be hard to cool. You're going to have a lot of mass in that plate, plus the two dies are apart from each other which will help thermal transfer characteristics, plus if you're doing light work you could probably turn off or low power the other die. Looks good to me.

Yeah, the cooling spread on these are going to be pretty amazing. Same with Epyc. All those dies.

First of all, I don't know if Zen supports 1DPC, secondly, 64GB is paltry for any kind of analytical work or VMs

First of all, X299 is Intel's MayoLake, not Ryzen, and we know for a fact that's its quad channel. Second of all, no one would really do any kind of heavy number crunching on a system built around a fucking ITX board anyway, especially since these kinds of people also enjoy having all the PCI-E slots crammed up with coprocessors.

so don't build a workstation on an itx platform you autist

I would if I could get 8 DIMM slots.
I'm not overclocking these things and less space used by my machine is always welcome.

8 DIMM slots would just about cover an ITX board

They're 17x17cm, fitting four slots on there (while maintaining all the other features expected of a high-end platform) is a fucking achievement already

Maybe they can make a special mITX board with the CPU-dies on board, so it wont need the socket.
That + laptop RAM, could make it.

What about Mini-DTX and EBX ?

aren't there fuck all mini-dtx boards around?

iirc they fit in the ncase m1 though so i'd be down with one for the extra pcie slots it could open up

never heard of ebx

Jesus fucking christ that's a huge socket
