Is anyone using a 2700x? can I see some results?
Thank you

It looks like Keith has at least three... I'm sure he will chime in but just in case. :^)

How they get 48 gpus lol. Anyway to see just CPU?

just click any of his hosts and click the valid tasks and see CPU tasks first in the list.

Thank you

Ian and Kevin pointed you at my hosts. The 2700X has been very solid for me. Much better than my first generation 1700X and 1800X cpus. I can get all core clocks of 4.025Ghz on them with very reasonable 1.34V cpu voltages. That keeps the temps to around 70° C. or so with AIO cooling.

They also handle decent memory clocks, but that also goes part and parcel with a decent motherboard. I use the ASUS Crosshair VII Hero mobo. I run 3466Mhz at CL14 latencies with fast secondary timings.

My hosts show what you can expect out of the current task types with decent memory and cpu clocks with a 2700X.

Hope you were able to snag the 2700X that was on sale for $199 at Amazon today or $159 at Newegg.com. Looks like all that stock went quickly. Now only third party sellers have any stock for much greater prices.

I got a 2700x from Amazon in Canada tho. I also got 16gb ddr4.
I need to get a board and GPU now.

That $150 price on Newegg was for the non-X 2700. I was drooling at that one until I remembered I don't have discrete graphics yet.

The non-X 2700 can be overclocked to behave exactly like the 2700X with a few tweaks in the BIOS. That was discovered back in the non-X 1700 days. It just won't have XFR.

I saw 2700's for $149. I almost bought another one :(

And its got 5 pcie slots so with riser cards it will run at least 5 gpus. Maybe more....

What's XfR?

I guess I should have. They are all up to $200 again.

What's XfR?

eXtended Frequency Range. Just an automatic frequency overclock by the cpu that automatically overclocks whenever the cpu can stay within its thermal and power limits. Ryzen Gen.1 did not have it nor did the non-X versions of Gen. 2. Gen. 3 has XFR2 now. Also the cpus have Performance Enhancement and Power Boost Override. Both are additional overclocking algorithms built into the cpus. PBO and PBO2 allow the user to override the normal AMD power limit budgets that allows the cpu to overclock further and for longer. You access the those menus in the BIOS or through the Ryzen Master program.

Good to know. how do you get 64 GPUs?

A secret known only to a few, and if he told you he would probably have to kill you ;-)

Tell me first, then kill me.

I take the BOINC master code branch and recompile it to "spoof" more gpus in the client than I physically have. That way the scheduler sends me 48 gpus worth of work instead of 4. Don't have to worry about long Seti Tuesday outages or unexpected server downtime issues.

Ha ha LOL. NO killing involved. Maybe a harsh scolding would be warranted.

There are a few, but the easiest way is modifying an xml file so the client believes more to be present. For example my host 7324426
7/18/2019 5:36:57 PM OpenCL: NVIDIA GPU 0: GeForce GTX 750 Ti (driver version 364.51, device version OpenCL 1.2 CUDA, 2048MB, 1967MB available, 1622 GFLOPS peak)
7/18/2019 5:36:57 PM OpenCL: Intel GPU 0: Intel(R) HD Graphics (driver version 10.18.10.4358, device version OpenCL 1.2, 1195MB, 1195MB available, 358 GFLOPS peak)
7/18/2019 5:36:57 PM OpenCL: Intel GPU 1: Intel(R) HD Graphics (driver version 10.18.10.4358, device version OpenCL 1.2, 1195MB, 1195MB available, 358 GFLOPS peak)
7/18/2019 5:36:57 PM OpenCL: Intel GPU 2: Intel(R) HD Graphics (driver version 10.18.10.4358, device version OpenCL 1.2, 1195MB, 1195MB available, 358 GFLOPS peak)
7/18/2019 5:36:57 PM OpenCL CPU: Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU J1900 @ 1.99GHz (OpenCL driver vendor: Intel(R) Corporation, driver version 3.0.1.10891, device version OpenCL 1.2 (Build 76427))

The scheduler code has, or did have, a limit for the number it is willing to accept from the client. So any value over that would be ignored.
