Can someone explain why do server variants always have lower base clocks? In particular I'm interested if consumer higher clocked variants are less reliable for long-term 24 hour full-load use. It has to be something like that, and not just power consumption considerations.
- gameswithgo 7y agoyou can’t fit the kind of cooler you would need in a server case is one reason, power is likely the other.
- lightedman 7y agoThey do make 4U server cases that would fit watercooling, several GPUs, and a heavily-loaded motherboard with redundant PSUs quite nicely.
- tracker1 7y agoAFAIK, you can overclock the Server variants if you have sufficient cooling, not sure on binning or the extra memory bandwidth in terms of CPU overclocking overhead... but there is room there.
