Holy fuck!
The new i9 series are just overclocked i7s with huge power consumption and heating issues.
How the fuck could Intel think this was a good idea?
>"I didn’t believe it at first, but the Core i9-7900X is using more than 70 watts additional power than the Core i7-6950X!"
>"But woe, if you have all the cores really work out properly! With Prime95 and Luxrender on all cores for the Core i9-7900X, we have determined absolute peak values for the power consumption. The Core i9-7900X achieves remarkable 48% more performance in the render score (Luxrender, console), but also takes up 58% more of the electrical power! This is almost the famous blue breaking bar."
>The system ran stable with 1.4 Vcore in 10 runs and the CPU took an average of 261 watts. Single peaks, however, were load-dependent at up to 293 watts, which is very close to the limit. A test carried out at 4.8 GHz with 20 instances of a shading-all-year calculation for a complex photovoltaic roof system including a yield calculation allowed the power consumption to rise to 335 watts. When starting Prime95 without AVX limitation then switched off the mainboard. The last, still logged value was 364 watts."
>"The real reason is Intel's incomprehensible fun brake in the form of unsuitable (but probably much cheaper) heat transfer paste instead of a sensible solder."
>"Up to 65 ° C Tcore with a heat spreader temperature of approx. 24 ° C results in a delta of more than 40 ° C. We reached this value with a power loss of just under 230 watts. As soon as you move above the 300-watt limit, which can be reached even with simple rendering programs from 4.6 or 4.7 GHz and the necessary voltages (depending on the chip quality), the chiller is hardly anything. At the maximum values of 300 watts reached by us the CPU is already permanently thermal limit of 100 ° C, shortly thereafter comes to the consequential shutdown."

Closed loop liquid nitrogen coolers when?
Hell, why don't we just stick the whole thing into a freezer at this point?
Man, just looked at the benchmarks.
>i9-7900 does 10% better than a i7-6950X
>base clock of 3.3GHz compared to 3.0GHz with the 6950
It's literally a 6950X with an overclock hahaha what the fuck
>>60986506
It performs worse than 6950X in many tests.
all this failure is seeming kinda suspicious though
>>60986466
I feel like there's something wrong here.
Is this gonna be like ryzen where nothing worked at first?
>>60986500
It doesn't matter how well you cool the heat spreader, if thermal jizz isn't transferring the heat from the die to the spreader. You'll end up with a IHS temperature below 0° and a core temperature above 100°.
but muh cinebench!
>>60986466
Intel is actually pushing these on people lul
>>60986698
>>60986560
Partially driver issues for sure, but consider what exactly "i9" is.
It's a Xeon die, with server features like ECC ram stripped off. Glue it to a HEDT socket. Overclock it and pray it works. They also shrunk the L3 cache, which might hurt some applications but the extra L2 might help in others.
I've also heard there's core to core communication latency issues. Like Ryzen's issue, except it effects all of the cores instead of half of them.
Finally, this is still a ~2000 pin socket. Threadripper will use a 4096 pin socket. That's more IO, more bandwidth, more power transfer...
>>60986500
we need hybrid liquid peltier air cooling
>>60986778
Dont forget the rumor going around intel is going to have to either gimp the clocks on the high core count dies to Xeon levels to maintain a power level that the socket can handle, or they'll put out yet ANOTHER socket JUST to handle the MCC i9s.
X99 is a grade a clusterfuck.
>>60986782
That's what I was also thinking. Slap a peltier cooler on the radiator, use a liquid with plenty of antifreeze and you can manage the condensation away from the components.

They definitely pushed it out too quickly. But I doubt there's very much they can fix with software updates.

It's fucking huge (and I mean that in the best way)
>>60987189
I've been saying for ages that we need larger CPUs. It's not like we're limited in the tower space or anything - just fucking make everything huge.
Apparently the talk is that there's a new socket for the 12 core and up chips because this one has a thermal limit.
>>60986466
So in other words, i9 is a gimmick that does more damage than good and will be gone before most people even notice it was there.
It's the fucking kaioken of processors.
>>60987010
I couldn't take that off without making it super ugly, I am not good at paint

>Pull the plug, pull the towers
What did they mean by this
>>60987252
Not POWER8?
>>60987298
Nope, hell even LGA 2011 is bigger than POWER8's socket.
>>60987323
That doesn't sound right, I remembered that POWER8 was the size of fist.
>>60987349
Well, Socket SP3 is even bigger
>>60987367
I cant even tell the difference between the shops and the real pics at this point

There is a limit, of course. At a certain point, the electrical signal won't be able to travel far enough to perform logic operations between clock cycles.
See pg. 2727 (Propagation of pulses on wires) in this awesome paper for more info.

They still need to communicate with one another, unfortunately. I'm all for breaking what we understand to be the laws of physics, but we'll need a ton of incredibly clever people to do it.
If you're at all interested in the physics behind what's going on inside of your CPU, you must read this paper. You should be able to process the broad strokes if you have any sort of background in physics. If you've studied physics/engineering (barring you civE fucks), at the university level, you'll likely get a great understanding of what the hell is actually happening inside that box of yours.

Our hails through emails are not responded to, and the phone-numbers we dial of contacts are not answered. Here in the EU Intel has killed (with a few exceptions) marketing, press and PR activities. Hence 98% media all over Europe is not receiving any information from Intel anymore
I'm guessing Intel is going all-in on burgers too stupid to realize this is their 9590

Remember all the Intel shills bashing Ryzen both before and after launch?
Remember all the Intel shills saying how great the i9's would be before launch?
Now it's actually launched and reviews are up and the shills have gone so so silent.

Just wondering, doesn't this wear the CPU out a lot?
Power consumption that high would never survive in the long run right?

Is this a solder thing then?

>>60987713
Hey, I like a powerful chip just as much as any other enthusiast. My (and everyone elses) problem lies in the fact these things are absofuckinglutely impossible to keep cool, and they suck up a fuckton of power while they're at it.
Not even Bulldozer and Piledriver was this bad, as while they had the high power consumption they didn't have their temps push 100C or require a high end CLC just to barely function within their specified temperature range.
>>60987713
thats not all of it
>>60987573
>>60986466
>AMD finally won for once
feels good
>>60987746
>they didn't have their temps push 100C
Probably that solder right?
>>60987754
That likely has a significant part to play in it. The biggest problem again comes back to Intel being cheap fucks with their own chips and not spending the $5 or so on the materials to actually properly solder their chips to their heatspreaders.

>>60987713
The real problem here isn't even the power consumption but the temps. Needing a high-grade CLC just to run the CPU at stock clocks is just ridiculous.
>>60987809
>nothing of value was lost
b-but muh Threadripper ;___;
>>60987821
thats not a problem for intel..
they probably lost a lot of money selling K cpu's
and now they are trying to lock people on a platform that is made to run hotter than sun and hotter than a blue giant if you overclock it
either way intel made them so that they are broken down faster the perfect planned obsolence that puts even nvidia on shame
you cant overclock cause it will void the warranty
you cant get maximomum perfomance because of thermal throttling
literally a cpu made to make people a tech cuck
>>60987558
Neo-/g/ in a nutshell.
I miss the old days when deep discussion of tech was commonplace. Thanks >>60987611
>>60987637 for sticking around/being interested.
Honestly, I'm all for consumerism. The money helps drive more R&D and advancement. That being said, it is a bit unfortunate that /g/ has mostly become a price comparison forum.
In grad school I took a few courses taught by a man who is likely the #1 expert in the world on atomic layer deposition. ALD has been instrumental in the development of sub-14nm lithography. His (S. M. George) courses were incredibly interesting, and drove home how amazing even the current fabrication processes are.
If you're interested in how modern semiconductor devices are fabricated and controlled, I encourage you to read some of his papers.
>>60987236
If we have the Kaioken now, I'd love Super Saiyan here in 2018/2019... Unless Intel goes full derp and thinks doing Kaioken x20 is viable (i.e. this but with 500W power consumption, maybe we just need more power to offset the heat from the power guys)
>>60987868
>and now they are trying to lock people on a platform
You know that won't work? People will get cancer as soon as they see they need to dump $300 on a mobo, $150+ on a cooler and over $400 for decent DIMMs before they even get to the CPU.

>>60988239

they did the same thing with pentium 4 and d.

At least Tom's Hardware needed an extra fan to cool the MOBO, so yeah, pretty much.

Liquid nitrogen wouldn't help in a closed system, needs to evaporate to work.
Intel wasted R&D on this when all they needed to do was cut prices a little.
>>60990048
They did cut prices, compared to their last HEDT CPUs. The 10 core 6950X used to be $1700.
>>60990048
>wasted r&d
they don't have any serous r&d anon, they've been milking the same designs for some 10 years
>>60986466
Somebody at Intel still thinks it is late 1990s and early 2000s.
The HEDT and Ethuasiast market doesn't matter much anymore. The real money is mainstream and enterprise market. Intel appears to have mainstream market lock down nice and tie unless Ryzen Moblies prove to be game changers (Not likely). The enterprise market on the other hand is in jeopardy since Epyc chips are going to cheaper to make in mass then trying to fab massive 20+ core monolith dies and AMD no longer being held back by a shitty architecture.
>>60990400
>Intel appears to have mainstream market lock down nice and tie unless Ryzen Moblies prove to be game changers (Not likely).
Are you nuts? Ryzen is insanely power efficient and coupled with integrated graphics that are actually decent I can't see any way for Intel to actually compete on the mobile side. They'll either have to rely on their own sucky graphics and lose on the performance front or use nvidia's discrete graphics which will negatively affect battery life. Also APUs are cheaper to produce so cheaper laptops and desktops all around.

This seems to be worse. The FX9000 used a lot of power and gave off a lot of heat but it was still manageable. There doesn't seem to be a cooling solution that can handle the i9

So does that mean Fast ddr4 removes bottlenecks like ryzen?
>>60993724
No, SKL mesh speed isn't tiered to memory speed
It will always be slow
>>60993724
It says right in the article that RAM speed only has a tiny effect. It's perma-slow.
How do you even justify the 6 core part sucking as much power as the 10 core.
You don't.
I predict 18 cores will suck exactly as much power, but run at 2 GHz.

It's basically two sockets stuck together
Threadripper is going to be really interesting to see if it works - because it certainly looks like they're throwing two discrete chips onto the same die
Given Intel's fuckery I seriously hope it works.
>>60990617
Even if they throw in Polaris, it'll be so much better than Intel's shitty GPUs.
>>60987179
so what's the 18 core i9 power consumption projected to hit
>>60994438
They already demonstrated TR at Computex. https://youtu.be/NeuamYdfU4w?t=16m
>>60994474
Marketing presentations mean absolutely nothing. Once people get their hands on it and run independent and varied tests is when I pay attention.
>>60994463
Like, a billion.
>>60994463
Depends on clocks.
At these clocks, you're looking at close to 500W
So not happening.
So they'll drop clocks by 20-30% to keep it "under" 260W
>>60994463
2Ghz.
>>60987252
Is it me or did someone bend pins near the top right?
>>60994463
Even if you could, theoretically keep the 4~4.5Ghz clock speed and don't bother about fucking up your PSU.
You won't be fucking able to cool it.
No fucking way.

It was, the soldered IHS allowed for liquid AIOs work decently, unlike the 7900X that can't even be cooled with chillers

The blender demo they showed for ryzen was legit - once people used the same settings there were getting to within margin of error results that AMD showed on stage thus there is a high chance that TR demo is equally legit.
>>60994709
The 9590 had a TDP of 220w. All of the big air coolers are rated for 200w+ (with the silver arrow extreme and le grand macho with fan both rated for over 300w).
>>60995427
No amount of airocoling can fix Skylake-X, water is a minimum requirement and even that is not enough stress testing at stock, much less overclocked.
>>60995427
>>60995427
9590 was crap, Bulldozer was a failure, but at least it was soldered.
>>60995532
...and possible to air cool.
>>60995427
