[@DMV-SaxTv]

Simply loved the intro setup ... As for the build ... F#$@*&ng Amazing! Thanks for always being consistent for the creators!

[@bgtubber]

Looks like you had a lot of fun doing the intro. 😄 Fantastic build too. I would like to do something similar, but with the 32-core 7970x which is more in my price range. Looking forward to seeing some CPU+mobo combo discounts before I pull the trigger.

[@theTechNotice]

right now I think there are only 2,3 motherboards out there if I'm not mistaken?? :)

[@chriswright8074]

​@rokiesensei7600

[@undisputedtruth4954]

Best option for encoding/decoding certain Intel exclusive formats on a system running amd cpu's. I have heard that QuickTime is kinda...uhhh...funky on those ARC770 GPU's, but it's an option with a 16GB frame buffer as a 2nd GPU.

[@flitai]

I use a WX radeon card for encoding and a xtx for gaming

[@davidyusaku]

@@flitai which wx ur using

[@rickjbradbury]

Those cable hiders are a brilliant idea.

[@moldyapple1789]

YOU DID IT! results pretty much as expected, but it's an abomination with potential. can't really blame developers for not supporting this much, as it is uber niche. hopefully they will down the road

[@dukekaboom3125]

your threadripper builds are awesome

[@theTechNotice]

Glad you like them!

[@user-qo5qp7tu6h]

Appreciate the timestamps man

[@Skillividden]

For such crazy builds I would definitely use a bigger case.

[@nykyman]

Excellent, thanks a lot

[@theTechNotice]

You are welcome!

[@nadtz]

You can get a torque wrench for installing the CPU but the included wrench makes that a lot easier since a decent small torque wrench can be kind of expensive for something you might never use again. You can also get 256gb DDR5 rdimms but they are like 3k+ a pop. Interesting case and nice try working with 2 different GPU's, hopefully that gets supported at some point. Beast of a system, even if I'd slap it in a boring workstation style case myself.

[@wolfk.l.5582]

I just finished this build myself actually. Azza has beautiful and unique cases...

[@67er]

Very excited For your comparison of this build (or better with 7970X) to the M3 MAX ❤ Wonderful Video!!! I like your kind of review a lot. Well done!!!!!

[@theTechNotice]

Thanks a lot!

[@minime1988]

I was thinking to myself "let me check out the links to see if I can afford to somewhat build this..." just the CPU alone cost more then my entire set up lol

[@jacknicholls10]

Mate love the very end! God I wish I could even afford half the value of this pc. Would be like a dream come true!

[@theTechNotice]

Finally someone watched the end haha!

[@Brunnen_Gee]

I've used TP to clean off thermal paste for about 20 years now. It's never had any negative effect. Just have half a working brain and remove any excess lint if some happens to stick around (which hardly ever happens).

[@theTechNotice]

There we go!

[@Itsyesfahad]

My 3ds Max, V-Ray, Corona, Arnold Renderer would love to run on something like this. 😁

[@nalrimmsi1998]

AWESOME!!!

[@Turgineer]

This is truly an ultimate PC.

[@MaddJakd]

What I'm building atm (essentially) Working my way up the generations for the fun of it. Praying to Odin Gigaby drops some more TRX50 motherboards. Need that Aorus in my life!

[@TorinBell]

Are you an engineer?

[@Gokulbalram]

After watching this video, one thing I now understand is that ignoring Adobe's general unwillingness to better optimize their software, the threadripper, while it may not be the best at these workloads, can do all of them AT ONCE. This is hugely important because I push my i9 13900k, 4070ti workstation at work to the limit with Photoshop, Illustrator, Blender, and After Effects, sometimes with all or most of these open at the same time.

[@graelstream2353]

This is such a nice build, quick question good sir. Would the corsair commander XT hub work with the EKWB EK Loop FPT 120 and 140 fans and the EKWB EK Nucleus Lux D-RGB aio? I am recently bought a set for my H6 build. Im really new to pc building... please help...

[@Games_and_Tech]

have you treied the phanteks d30 420mm AIO to cool the threadripper? I am really courios on how good it does it...

[@rationalwatcher7739]

Make sure you are testing with PP24. Added Arc function, stability & speed.

[@theTechNotice]

yep, did!

[@67er]

Very cool effect at 1:30👌

[@theTechNotice]

😇

[@hightechsystem_]

You need 11 slots on back to support these threadripper boards properly. Case designs need to get much bigger to accomodate more pci slots with larger cards.

[@nadtz]

The Fractal Define 7 XL has 9 and there are some niche cases meant to work with multi GPU's that would probably work but an unfortunate truth is these boards are designed around blower style GPU's which is why you usually get 2 slot spacing.

[@MaddJakd]

​@nadtz plus you'd have to add a new motherboard standard to accommodate the 2.5+ slot GPUs. Like, even bigger than XL-ATX, amd those are already rare. What we really need are more AIO variants of these cards (Sapphire, Gigabyte! 🤬🤬🤬), or more exotic cooling.

[@UnSnyked]

I need that pc rn

[@andrey.003]

I would like to see a build of one single brand of components. Maybe msi or asus. I plan to build my own later and wanna know what brand would fit the best my taste.

[@harryniedecken5321]

This would be a good use of the amd W7000 series graphics cards

[@iprince7934]

I can finally run 2 chrome tabs with this

[@johnnygeorgopoulos4072]

Too bad it looks like that case isn't available for sale, because it's a pretty sick looking tower/cube.

[@theinterfiles]

Missed the last part, can you repeat😂😂... "do not ever"....

[@murraywebster1228]

Now that’d be a dream DAW…

[@Tiger-888]

The End was sudden like you said. (not going to spoil more)

[@radeksparowski7174]

do the pcie 16x slots all individually support bifurcation????

[@oneguy9916]

That case is like a mansion for a Hamster

[@theTechNotice]

Haha

[@whatafailedchannel3052]

Here's me thinking about a 96 core thread ripper build for servers and another 24 core intel gaming build, both full of 8tb ssds, 2* 4090's each PC, have a 80k budget.

[@user-dt5rz8zp9d]

How much time it will take to compile the Unreal 5 project ?

[@justatim8143]

One thing I don't understand is WHY other case manufactures don't have their front I/O on the bottom if they are designed for Desk Top use Like Thermaltake's Tower cases that you have to get up and stand to connect to the I/O. Love the case except for the Top Panel as I would rather have holes for exhaust or for the price they have add a mesh top panel with the case.

[@julianfiacconi709]

I’m thinking the best GPU’s to use would be the 2X RTX ada6000, and 1 single slot RTX ada4000. That would make it a complete content creation powerhouse. Great video, thanks for the great content. You are a great educator, and with a little humour added…bonus.

[@sabyasacheebanik6018]

That's good

[@WayneWatson1]

I use coffee filters to clean. Nice and strong and lint free

[@theTechNotice]

Great tip!

[@Ptrmrkks]

enthoo pro 2 server has 11 pcie slots ... you could solve the problem of the bottom pcie slot with that case

[@pliashmuldba]

[@Charlton873]

[@langamtimkulu6846]

quick sync is awesome.......but the software really needs to catch-up.

[@robeeteam3399]

Does A380 support fast enough AV1 encoding?

[@ChrisHensley2]

I watched a linus video resurrecting a 10 year old 10k pc and made me realize better to scale out not up. My purpose is homelab, home automation, a few professional hosted services. I was wanting to build a top of the line machine but the cost is i am better off building 3 machine vs one. I am not saying threadripper is bad or others dont have purpose for it. Just giving my perspective because most attracted to this cpu and type of build are those that are more hobby / small business.

[@erikkazarov207]

Hello! will that cpu run with 4 x Kingston 96GB ECC Registered DDR5 5600 RAM? Motherboard supports that model RAM

[@TheRealDavidLawrence]

Wall-mount it. then try using the 3 gpus 😁

[@joshcartu4332]

You really want two PCI Express Gen 5 drives in here to do it justice. RAID 0… even better. You can make it happen if you use shorter GPU waterblocks and ditch this AIO stuff which also doesn’t do this hardware any justice. Love your channel, man, wasn’t trying to be a critical but would like to see this system really stretch its legs.

[@justinpatterson5291]

The 7900 series is rather solid. I've got an XT Hellhound. Both, it, and my cpu- just laughs at the games I throw at them. My rig is weak sauce compared to yours though.

[@nguyentrungdung3576]

Hello Sir, I have just made a same build as your but it have dual 7900xtx and I'm trying to use AMD MGPU in Adrenalin but that option is not available. Its my first time to use this mother board and MGPU and im so confused. Is there any option in bios i need to turn on before i can use MGPU? thank you sir for reading.

I have to say I waved the Intel flag for many years, all my systems are Intel consumer and HEDT systems. This video has me convinced that Intel is on the ropes, at least in the HEDT market. My next system build will be Threadripper or ThreadripperPro. Your videos are compelling and honest. Thanks again.

[@aidan216]

[@akashtriz]

Dude u needed blender, it scales amazingly on multi nvdia systems. It's actually a GPU driver clash that's made the whole thing slower. But thanks for this video it shows that companies will keep pulling each others legs instead of having universal multivendor-gpu compute drivers😂😂😂

I guess Adobe chooses ARC instead of RX because it's the first in the list in your system. Probably if you swap them in your PCIs the issue will be resolved.

[@theTechNotice]

Actually in my PCIe config the Radeon is first. I think that's how windows labels the GPUs. The iGPU is always before dGPU and I guess they've used it the same way with ARC. 🤔

[@ukrainian333]

Does Adobe Premier can give you a choice what GPU will be used? Davinci Resolve can do it, you can choose all cards, and technologies, for every card, as I remember.

[@theTechNotice]

Tried Resolve as well, same story.

I think that DaVinci Resolve Studio (the one you have to pay for) does simultaneous multi GPU support - not so sure for the free to use version.
