I mean... is it really necessary to overclock a AMD Threadripper, for the price of this new Threadripper ($9,999) I wouldn't take the risk of overclocking it..

- account42 3y ago> I mean... is it really necessary to overclock a AMD Threadripper Yes? The main point of the Threadripper (especially non-PRO) is that you have a many-core CPU that can still run at high frequencies. Othervise EPYC (many-core) or Ryzen (high speeds) would be enough.
- burrish 3y agoAh I see thanks, but still for this generation of Threadripper, I would avoid overclocking it if it means having no warranty. Also shit move from AMD because even if you overclock with their software, the warranty still becomes void
- unregistereddev 3y agoIt depends. If I'm an IT manager at Pixar and this is going in the workstation of my best and most productive animator, the price might not matter. If reducing the time s/he spends waiting on the computer means I can produce movies faster, I'll take risks to give them the best machine possible. If I'm a home freelancer staking my livelihood on this workstation, I'm not taking the risk.
