32 core 64-threaded AMD's new flagship thread ripper ThreadRipper 2990X is about to debut, then the number of core threads has doubled, and how can it be achieved after completely surpassing Intel? Overclocking expert Der8auer has recently conducted a simulation test. .
The ThreadRipper thread tearer comes from the server-level EPYC Xiaolong, so this simulation test uses a top-level EPYC 7601, It is 32 core 64 threads, and it is overclocked to 3.4GHz, which is the reference frequency of 2990X, with Haiyun Platinum Power, Yingruida DDR4-2400 memory.
Since the server platform is designed without overclocking, the server board under test has only 6-phase power supply, and its own heat dissipation design is very weak (the server generally relies on system cooling), and the server platform supports eight-channel memory, thread tearing. It's just four channels, so the simulation is definitely not very close, for reference only.
The first round of testing, Just use four memory, CineBench R15 running score is 3867, obviously too low, you know A generation of thread tearers 1950X can exceed 3100 points.
then Inserted eight memory, running points came to 5224This can be accepted, but the effect between the low-frequency eight-channel memory and the high-frequency four-channel is not well confirmed.
Next Full-core overclocking to 3.8GHz, running to 5863, quite good.
Considering that the new batch of X399 motherboards is in heat dissipation, the overclocking will be greatly enhanced, and the consumer memory frequency can be higher. The performance of the second generation of thread tearers is worth looking forward to. The 2990X normal running score is in the range of 5500-6000 minutes. , the force of more than 6000 should also be able to do.
Finally, I ran a round of 3DMark Time Spy Extreme, which can use 32 threads (still half wasted), and the result is 7237. It would obviously be better if I could support all 64 threads.
It is said that the second generation of the thread tearer will be officially released on August 13. Anyway, no matter what day, we will give you a first evaluation, so stay tuned.
