Vince gave a good answer :D

In a way that is the reason I am going to get a Threadripper. I deal with Bathymetry data, which can involve point clouds with hundreds of million of points. Manipulating this data, like creating surfaces, take up a lot of ram. 16GB of my 32GB of ram has failed a couple of months ago and having having only 16GB hurts. Realistically, I will probably end up with 32GB and then 64GB and it should be enough.

If I could have afforded 128 over my 64 you can be damn sure I would have. :D - More fast ram is just better than less, its similar to how cars work... You don't see anybody saying no please Mr Lamborghini I don't require that amount of speed, please can I have less?

When the little fella in Oliver Twist says "Please sir, can I have less?", No I thought not... More, MOAR!!!!
 
Fair answer :) And with that I can announce I am also a member of the Threadripper club.

Team Group Dark Pro "8 Pack Edition" 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C14 3200MHz Dual Channel Kit - Black X2


AMD Ryzen Threadripper Eight Core 1900X 4.00GHz (Socket TR4) Processor - Retail


Samsung PM961 Polaris 256GB M.2-2280 PCI-e 3.0 x 4 NVMe Solid State Drive X3

I also bought a waterblock which for some reason isn't showing up in my Orders tab, and motherboard was the Asus Prime so probably quite different from most people's build.

Saturday will be exciting :D

Thank you all. Exciting having a new PC as the last one lasted nearly five years (4930K, 16GB DDR, Asus Rampage IV and three R290's in Crossfire).

Hoping I can squeeze a little more performance out of the TR being as its base clock is slightly higher.. and this is primarily for games with a small amount of media ripping to different formats.

Waterblock installed. Initial testing shows capable of 4.05v @ 1.35v, peaks at 81c in prime after about quarter of an hour and stabilises around 74c.
 
Interesting results. I'm pretty sure that I also have decent silicon but my AIO, as good as it is just isn't cut out to push TR hard. I assume good silicon because I managed 4.1 at 1.375v all core but temps started running away from me so I'm back at stock/xfr where most of the time my cpu decides that 3.7 all core and 4.1 boost on 4 cores is how it wants to run, load it up and it seems to be 3.5/3.6 across the board.
 
I've got it benching at 4.1ghz at 1.375v but I don't think that's going to be 24/7 stable.

It does 4ghz at 1.25v though, so I think that's what I'm going to settle at and do some long term stability testing.

That's all at 3600C16 ram.
 
One EK CoolStream XT 240, one EK CoolStream XT 120 and one XSPC 160 (can't remember model).

All with push/pull fans

Small update on the 1900X. I had some kerfuffle trying to get the system to boot and it took a good few goes stripping everything down and re-seating that dinner plate of a CPU.. I think it did not seat right first time.. I'm busy playing GAMES with it now!

Appears to be stable on all cores @ 4.2Ghz with virtually no tweaking. Just adjusted the multiplier to 42 with everything else set to auto and off it jolly well went. 8 pack's memory flies in at CAS 14-14-14-31 timings from the drop down menu without doing any faffing about. I used my old Corsair Cooler - forget what model but it is a 240 and just used the supplied adapter plate and on it went. There is a firmware bug in the software of my Asus Prime X399-A as from the BIOS is was reporting 0 degrees with the odd fluctuation of -2 !! I wish :) Aida 64 Extreme is reporting it as 40C @ 4200.. I dare say I need to run Prime95 and see how much damage that does to Delta-T.

Couple of questions for ya all:

1) Can anyone recommend a good free picture hosting site other than Photoshitebucket that is not allowing me to link or even download my own photos!... and
2) What benchmarks and versions of, should I run that will provide the data you want to see?

It's been a while and stuff keeps changing :D
