  • Sounds nice, but yes, uses quite a bit of power.

    I should measure mine - I have a Ryzen 5900 (24t, 64MB … some 20k cinebench score) as the main, and a Core 12700 (16+4t, 12MB).
    (And Intel gen 7 and 2 at my patents. All of them proxmoxed.)

    Never ever managed to bottleneck anything on them, not really, but got them super cheap used.

    Buying anything server/enterprise that powerful would cost me a lot of moneys. And prob have two CPUs which doubles a lot of power hungry bits.


  • Isn’t that a bit like buying an old truck instead of a year old Miata?

    Afaik those CPUs use so much juice when idling … sure, you dont get all them lanes or ECC, but a PC at the same price with a few year old CPU outclasses that CPU by a lot & at a fraction of the running cost (also quietly).

    Just something to keep in mind as an alternative, especially when you don’t intend to fill all the pcie bussy (several users with several intensive tasks that benefit from wider bus to RAM & PCI even with a slow CPU).
    Ok, and you miss out on some fancy admin stuff, but … it’s just for home use …

    Yeah, but from the morbid (& historical) perspective it is kinda impressive tho, isn’t it?
    It’s done differently and at a much much higher cost (& more constant maintenance) than in your average direct regime controlled counties.

    Eg 70 years of cop shows & how they solve all crimes (and not just 0.2% of the 1% they even bother with), or how movies go though DoD for 'Murika superiority forever check rewrite, how Americans don’t know the direct (much less indirect) dearth-toll they are producing year through year, how 3/4 of the world population hate you but you think they warship you, etc?
    I especially like how a lot of openly available data is treated as ‘conspiracy theories’.

    If you didn’t have any knowledge of it, there is no way you would believe such a thing is possible.

    I don’t think that particular game is hunted on the streets.

    They have meticulously maintained resorts, islands, megayachts, etc for exact purpose.

    It’s no proper sport tho, once the staff stops protecting them, they just stand there sucking their thumbs.

    But it’s still fully worth it, once the kill is done & the empire (for at least a moment) falls, nature can’t believe what just finally happened, etc.
