I saw on ebay that one of those 28 core xeon cpus go for about $9,000. So you account for the ram he installed and the motherboard, GPU, and everything, you are probably looking at about at least $30,000 there, and most likely, the average PC user is not going to get much more performance from a 28-core cpu than they would with a Quad to 6-core cpu since most programs still only use maybe 2 to 4 cores at most at a time. Rather than the number of cores, I think the performance of each single core is probably more important.

[@KSSilenceAU]

Yo Linus! When you mentioned "First Boot" before it does the "Proper Bootup" around 12 minutes in, this is common on Server and workstation boards with IPMI / BMC's installed, and this is because the IPMI / BMC will initialise itself before the rest of the system is allowed to boot, and this usually means the system will act like its doing nothing for a while then suddenly springs to life, or it will post right away but then wait for the IPMI, Reset, and then go at it again before continuing. I have witness both types of behaviour on my Workstation, Home Server, and Home Lab servers, which are a mix of IBM and Supermicro machines. Basically if you have a machine with an IPMI / BMC, you should apply power to the system, then you have 2 options, you can either leave it in "off" but power connected for a few minutes to give the BMC time to start up, or you power on right away, and then wait for the BMC to start up while the machine does basically nothing in the mean time but make noise. On my IBM servers i prefer to leave them "off" with the power plugged in and "on at the wall", because there is no fan control until the BMC has started up, so turning them on right away just means having to listen to 100% fans for about 2 minutes while the machine waits for the BMC, whereas if i wait first for a few minutes, then the machine is quiet and POST's right away as the BMC is already booted and running. On the IBM's you can tell when the BMC is booted up by watching the blink rate of the power button LED, Fast flashing is power applied but BMC not ready, and when it changes to a slow blink rate, the BMC is ready and nows the time to turn the machine on.

[@kozmikhero6749]

He's a man with something to say

[@curt8806]

This is what happens when clueless people build server machines and buy parts from eBay. They ruin other peoples CPUs and blame it on the seller. One of the worst type of customers are those that buy without knowing they have compatible parts. Like honestly trying to boot it up by holding the cpu in place? I'm sure no one here wants to sell to a buyer who is going to validate a cpu by holding it place then return it if it doesnt work.

[@MrScram-ih5eg]

This is the type of customer every seller fears. Doing all sorts of very ill-advised things to a CPU and then going "uh, your chip doesn't work dude". You're not being scammed. Returning a chip after that is being the scammer.

[@AegisRick]

So here's an intresting story. I worked at Intel for a few months as a mechanical tester and I immediately recognized those SKX and KNL Foxconn brackets. I must of went through thousands of them because it was a concern for Intel that after many cycles of taking off and putting on those heatsinks, there would be tiny bits of debris leftover. Obviously bad when we're talking about CPU sockets. All of the screws (and fasteners) had this special coating called (fumio?) on them that is supposed to capture the debris. You'll notice they have this golden-like color to them. Anyway, yes, the heatsinks seemed proprietary, but nothing too special, a metal block with a medium sized square copper heatsink. Had a box of hundreds of them. In fact for testing we just used a thin aluminum plate which indeed held the CPU in place. The large spikes coming out of the bracket are intended such that you can't possibly put it on wrong, can align it rather quickly and deals with the small bit of torque you get with bolting something down.

[@AegisRick]

Aw MAN Ok I saw that Coolermaster briefly at work too! Opened it up all the way and the coolest thing about it was the wicked design they came up with in the copper plate for supposedly better heat transfer. It was like a turbulent maze, don't know how well it worked in practice. The black plastic thing that was attached to it was a actually what clipped the CPU to the heatsink. You didn't have to line anything up. CPU clipped into the plastic, plastic clipped into the heatsink block. You could essentially do it before screwing it down.

Linus. I used to work extensively with loose chips at a testing company. A large chip with a ball grid like that needs to have even pressure, not necessarily high pressure. If only a few contacts were not getting a good connection you could have many issues, or even damage the chip. A good socket will have even pressure over the entire chip, or at least the areas with contacts. You may not have been spreading the pressure over everything.

[@raidermaxx2324]

@ a few bucks, huh? You sure about that? and lets just say its $10.00 doesnt seem like alot, but because of trump ive also lost my health insurance, NEVER got the tax Break he promised, since only the rich elites got that, and wages are still shit. And the cost of living is fucked. Also, we all had to give Trumptard farmers in rural america, a 20 billion cash infusion, because Trump had to pay them off, since his tariffs fucked them over so bad. Se we basically had to pay trump supporters to keep supporting trump. So that money didnt go to anything that helps me or my family. And now, we find out his tariffs which are totally unecessary and counter productive, are making shit that we enjoy, as a hobby. more fucking expensive. So its fucking relevant. Thats why politics are needed, amigo.

[@jasonterry1959]

​@@raidermaxx2324 That has nothing to do with gpu prices. 1) obamacare sucked ass. 2) that's simply false. "only riches and elites" did not get it. do your research. 3) cost of living isn't on trump 4) so? smaller farmers (relative, not SMALL) do need help... 5) no you didnt have to pay trump supporters to keep supporting trump, that's false. 6) sure, maybe it sucks to be you - it didnt help you directly. But it may have helped america as a whole... So suck it up buttercup... YOU individually dont matter. it's how it helps people as a whole. 7) politics aren't needed. you're clearly lacking in basic knowledge about how any of this works (prices, gpu prices specifically, politics) so keep it to yourself kiddo
