We have a similarly specced Xeon in our ewaste room, I’ve thought about making an expensive necklace out of it. I’m pretty sure it’s not even dead it’s just a CPU we can’t use or return so it’s in the trash…

That’s some expensive sand.

One could say it’s an Epyc amount of cores and threads

Got that looks sweet naked.

Just wait until you try to license Windows server for it. At $1,176 per 16 cores, spinning up 2 Windows Server VMs on that thing will cost $7,056 just for licensing before User-CALs.

What about the chip?

at 2.something Ghz I guess…

And you gotta remember, that your average gaming PC nowadays probably has more processing power than the entirety of the world combined did about 40 years ago.
Beautiful. wish I could have a dummy one of these just to look at. something about bare silicon is mesmerizing.

I remember getting really into PC gaming in highschool. Games were requiring 128MB of RAM and I felt baller with 384MB. This CPU has that in L3 cache.

My first PC, an Apple II, had 1 core and 1 thread, 64K RAM and a 64K expansion card in it called the 80-Column Card that brought it up to a whopping 128K. It played all the newest best games at the time. Good times.

Time to direct die cool it and OC to S***t and back! >:D

I’d report for not marking this NSFW due to a nude CPU but…. I doubt that’s gonna work on Pedro

That’s cool but the ESD training in me is cringing.

& how many billions of transistors under the hood? That’s the real mind-blowing number here.

Take another one, itll be teice as that in one hand!

1000 bucks in your hand
Is that a Threadripper 7995WX or the unreleased 9995WX
Edit: or is it an EPYC CPU

I would be a shame if you dropped it…
Just don’t be Linus and drop it, K?
Don’t drop it
Man. Modern tech is so neat. Shoulders of giants.
But can it run Crysis?

I need to install Gentoo on this Powerhouse XD

Plz run it through [OpenBenchmarking.org](https://openbenchmarking.org/) and [PassMark CPU Performance test](https://www.passmark.com/products/performancetest/).
Is that an engineering sample or did the owner actually delid it?
Fake. There is only 13 there
I GOT CPU IN MY HAND RIGHT NOW AND IM COMPUTING IT
That is absolutely beautiful.
