Threadripper has been an undisputed success for AMD and showcases the higher end of their Zen+ architecture. The value-adds like Ryzen Master and StoreMI are legitimate extras that consumers or enthusiasts can use. Pricing is competitive, perhaps even agg...
The performance of the 2990WX is interesting, at some points it's extremely impressive, and at other points, it's less impressive. That is basically because of the way the dies are connected, which results in long pathways to certain cores/dies. In applic...
We recently updated our Linux testing suite a wee bit, making minor changes, but at the expense of dropping all single-threaded benchmarks – by accident. We hadn't thought much about every single set of results being hugely optimized for core counts, whic...

Expensive platform
