  • Server hardware upgrade this weekend - update


    Somewhere this weekend I'll be upgrading our server hardware. I'm not sure when exactly, you'll know when everything is down. Sorry!

    I'm going to replace the 14-core/28-thread Intel Xeon E5 2680 v4 2.2GHz. CPU with 12-core/24-thread AMD Threadripper 1920X 3.5GHz CPU. While that leaves us with fewer cores and threads, it does gives us a boost in IPC and much higher clock speeds. Overall things should be considerably faster with the new CPU.

    Of course I can't simply put an AMD CPU into an Intel motherboard. The motherboard will be replaced by an Asrock X399 Taichi. This new motherboard has two 8-pin CPU connectors so I'm also upgrading the power supply to a Corsair RM850X.

    You can read more about the server hardware stuff on our forum:

    All of this new hardware is paid for by our generous donors and Jiro who is taking the old server parts of my hands. Thank you all for supporting us

    *update*
    The upgrade has been completed!
    As always. If you notice anything out of the ordinary or not working as it should then please let us know.
