yeah u gotta give it lil try cuz its way deeper then just Multiplier OC the normal way without touching the bclock, sometines u just only need to put the bclk higher and thats it, no need to oc further hehe ^^


yahh well degredation happends but much slower then we really like to admit, sure, especially thoes crapzy chips but they will prolly degrade at a time where that machine that 7980 or what ever is useless to you as a main System prolly move it down as second pc and downclock it and get rid some of the voltage and be happy, but degradation hapends sadly everywhere, with CPUs tho idk you will use one for that long where its going to be a problem,,, prolly is the Performance which is before its a degredation but we can all agree at that level of hardware, almost every degree is a win

have a good morningy dudes, ive gott clean my sidepanel soon hehe ^^

thehe ^_^

i might still go for the 10980xe maybe but my 10940x already decasifies the 7980xe but it was too good for its time still so if somebud has it, optimise it a lil and put an alphacool eisbaer or some in that range on it and yeah cary on and have fun

I owned a 10980XE for a brief period, other than better silicon. My 10980XE and 7980XE performed the same.

I ran the 7980XE on an older bios with older ME and direct die before specter melt down and all that, so essentially it was actually faster than my 10980XE because the 7980XE wasn’t just out clocking it, but it was faster per clock without the newer mitigations in place on the 10980XE. I left the 10980XE soldered, and eventually returned it for a refund, mainly because I could not afford to keep both.

You may be talking about stock performance of these chips though. They did boost up the stock 10980XE quite a bit over the 7980XE. But I always looked at the 7980XE/9980XE/10980XE as the same chips for some reason other than solder.

The 7980XE had a weak stock “All-Core boost” I believe it did 3.4Ghz with (18/36) loaded.

I’m running an older ME/bios on my 3175X as well. You may be talking about stock performance of these chips

Well I tried to explain that to him few pages back but seems like he don't get it 7,9,10 series on X299 are basically the same except for the stock/turbo clocks....
Anyway I have 7940X on Asus Rog Gaming and still using older bios because on that bios I can use ECC ram and currently have 192Gb that works on 2400Mhz and I managed to tweak a bit timings so aint that bad in quad channel..... @tps3443 that Xeon 3175X is true MONSTER how long you have it and is it still expensive and what about the mobo that's LGA 3647 if I am not wrong are those still very pricey?

Yeah the 7980XE was running at a very tame 3.4Ghz on all 18 cores stock. It was efficiently tuned though. The 10980XE ran +400Mhz faster, and even this Xeon 3175X stock during an 18/36 core load runs 4.0Ghz. So lots of chips out of the box will or can potentially whoop the stock 7980XE. But once it’s overclocked, it changes drastically. My 7980XE wasn’t a fantastic sample by any means. But they all have HUGE OC potential.

But yeah the 3175X and LGA 3647 are still kinda expensive to build nowadays. I’ve only had mine for 4+ months now. I actually had a 14900KS/Z790 Apex before this. And I went out and bought a Dominus Extreme, and a Xeon 3175X to play with and use daily, and I traded off the 14th gen Intel system. This system has been a very reliable platform though. As for ram, I know some of those 7th gen HEDT chips can run some configs that aren’t even supported or supposed to even work. I also heard the ram limits on these chips are much higher than what’s actually listed as well. Intel was literally just saying a ram max on the specs, and not actually locking things down. I have seen someone running 1TB or even more ram with a 3175X but apparently and they are 512GB/768GB ram limits which isn’t true at all. ‍

Well.....that "monster"of yours supports a hexa/six channel memory and you have there 12 slots so if that mobo supports ecc ram and if you could find those rare and expensive 128Gb ddr4 sticks then I really can't see the reason why should not work and theoretically then it could support 12x128Gb=1536Gb(1,5Tb)of ram......well same goes for X299 it's just that have few slots(8)less and it's quad channel instead but realistically it's much easier and much cheaper to get 32Gb sticks or even maybe 64Gb so my guess that you can get 768Gb that's not going to cost you anymore yours "arms&legs".......
BTW what are you doing on that machine is it a "working-horse" or just a enthusiast fun project?

P.S.I am still OK with this 7940X 'tho I was thinking about 7980XE as possible upgrade but I am really not in a hurry as this machine is more than enough for my needs atm....
