So, a 5995wx will offer more RAM capacity?
And between a 8ch ddr4 and 4ch ddr5, I’m not sure the ddr5 is always better (ddr4 should beat on bw but not latency which depends on the base freq of RAM).
As soon as you introduce AMD TR in an intel cultivated company, people adopte AMD for their others project/collegue. It is remarkable. So why shot its foot like that AMD? They should have put in place an “advantage” program for targeting pro user who eat RAM. There’s a market there.
I think it’s because they want to offer 1 mobo for TRX and WRX sockets, so economic reasons.
This is idiotic: people wanting a TRX mobo, will have a bit more expensive mobo, and some (many?) people/entreprise will go epyc/intel because those can’t even have more RAM than the 5995wx.
I’ll be upgrading from 128go to 512 on a 5995wx for my thesis. 128go came from an intel from 2013. In France, there is no epyc genoa workstation tower, they came from america and have restricted warranty to there. The future will be underperforming and expensive intel… If they don’t fix that shit, or, we will have to resort to lenovo and dell and pay extra to avoid a downgrade.
When you buy a machine that cost 500 000 or more, 10 000- 30 000 $ to treat data shouldn’t be a problem (and it’s not regarding the amount they spent on 12c intel).
Obviously, speaking as 5995wx user, I don’t consider/compare TRX socket.
Mobo changed : wrx90 will have the same mobo as trx50.
WRX80 is 8 module. WRX90 is 4.
I’d really hope if I missed something and there is no vital regression for work.
