Damn shame, I was actually looking forward to buying a TR 5000 based workstation. But not at these prices.
Wonder what would people suggest if one is looking into a long-term many-core Linux workstation setup as of today?
I'd reckon probably a refurbished ThinkStation P620 with a TR Pro 3000 CPU?
- donkarma 4y agomay as well go for EPYC
- pdimitar 4y agoNot a bad idea in fact. Any ideas where can I source some that are not jet engines and don't cost north of $10,000?

Well, ryzen 5000-family and threadripper 3000-family core count do not intersect(16v24). if you need more than 16 cores and dont mind spending twice as much per core, go with threadripper. otherwise, ryzen 5950x is an absolute beast when cooled properly and is only $480
- pdimitar 4y agoYeah I'm heavily leaning to a 5950x machine as well. But maybe I'll wait for the Ryzen 7000 lineup first. Thank you.
