Review of ASRock Rack EPYCD8-2T server motherboard for AMD EPYC 7000

The good thing about the AMD EPYC 7000 platform is that a large number of PCI Express lanes are available to you in 1-socket format. This is a serious advantage for assembling a server with several GPUs, because the 1-processor layout allows you to assemble compact machines in the ATX form factor. The good thing about the AMD EPYC 7000 platform is that a large number of PCI Express lanes are available to you in 1-socket format. This is a serious advantage for building a server with several ...

Comparison of three Noctua coolers for workstations based on AMD EPYC 7000

Due to the gigantic dimensions of the socket, coolers for TR4 / SP3, as a rule, are placed in a separate category and are not compatible with anything else (this does not apply to SVO). We'll compare the top three Noctua remote cooling systems and see how they differ from each other. AMD EPYC processors have a multicrystal layout (so-called chiplets), which makes the CPU bulky in terms of size, and, apparently, the tendency to increase their CPU size will continue in the future. Since the ...
