yeah, i've been eyeballing one for when my truck sells; I too have never had state of the art, but have always ended up with 2 generations old top of the line..... This little i3 ive been on since I received it can only do so much =)
It's hard to justify spending 2K on a motherboard and processor, but I figure I would not need to replace them for at least 6+ years..... that makes it worth it to me.
80mb cache.... that's really where it hits the home run. Most people can't imagine the difference between a 2Mb cache and a 10Mb cache intel chip; until they actually experience it..... it's a night and day difference.
My downside is I would be footing for a MB, CPU and a cooler; which I definitely will not be doing air since AIO's are so efficient and easy on the wallet these days.
If I did get it; Ill definitely be putting it towards cryptonight in its spare time. It would be a waste to not.

My 1920 has done well. I run 4 Vega 56 and the 1920 it will actually roi. Which is impressive.

I reach the maximum performance by putting 16 threads, I also installed coreprio by reading various guides but nothing .. maybe we need some particular configuration in xmr-stak?
July 02, 2019, 10:22:00 AM
since jce-miner is outdate and not support monero cryptonight_R o variant 4 someone have any solution because if i use xmr-stak with 2990wx in windows 10 it have only 1200 H/sec
You're doing something wrong. jceminer was only better on older CPUs, you should get the same performance
with xmr-stak on a Threadripper. The most common mistake with XMR is running too many threads.

Thanks for the info
Got the JCE miner configured now and getting 2500 to 2600 With 32 threads. Did lift higher
To 48 and 60 threads but same symptoms occured-hashes went down. Hopefully miners can
Get more efficient in time for this cpu?
Alls good now. Cheers
2500h-2600/s is already excellent and probably around the best you can achieve with cpu. If you want to try with more threads with JCE, you need to use special options for additional threads to avoid using cache, since you are fully using the cache with 32 threads: doing this will probably bring a small performance increase with a power consumption increase ...

Step 1.
Use JCE miner
https://github.com/jceminer/cn_cpu_miner
Step 2.
See this link if JCE miner autoconfig dooesn't give you 2000+ H/s

Hello again
I have examined the lock page setting and it seams that the claymore miner has applied this fix already, When run with admin rights. So 1200 is still my max hash rate with 16 threads- any more threads still reduces the hash.
I am told windows 10 has a sheduling problem and may need the 1809 upgrade.
We shall see soon.
Good luck and thanks

Thanks for the post
Are we talking about using lockpages with gpedit- thought this was specific to the 1920x silly me.
-ill look into this today.

My experience with the amd threadripper 2990wx for mining is not good.
Firstly i tried using monerod solo and next the claymore pool miner. after downloading the monero block chain i set the threads to 16 and i got about 8/900 hashes. In claymore i was getting 11/1200 hashes.
Tried setting to 32 thread but now the hash rate dropped by 25%
Tried 48 threads and it dropped another 25%
And at 60 threads i was down to below 200 hashes.
I am a bit peeved with these results- maybe to do with windows 10 1803.
Running an instance of monerod solo and claymore pool together with 16 threads each, starting one at a time did not cure the problem either. When the second miner started it stole hash rate from the other miner and vica versa.
It seems the best thread count is 16 -no matter how many miners are running the total thread count cannot be more than 16 to get best results
Hopefully a fix can be found.

It can be found, in this same topic. Only a few posts before yours. Just take a careful read, and then ask again if you are not sure

A GCP n1-standard-64 with 240GB, non pre-emptable, is ~ USD 1500 / month.

319 + 20 tax = 339 - 25 pay with master pass = 314 - 40 rebate = 274 - 50 dollar gift card promo = 224 -3 = 221 which is
cheap for that board.
excellent !

You guys look at everything from pure profit side
Maybe the guy wanted threadripper 2990WX anyway, but now he can actually return small part of his pc by mining when not using it.
Right now I have ryzen 1700 and vega 64 PC, when not using it i just start the miner. And I like it

I am really happy with my setup at the moment.
I have the ryzen 1920x
I have 1 rx 560
I have 2 1050ti
I use 220 watts
I now get 1500 for cn7 that is about 85 cents and I use 5 kwatts which is about 80 cents in the summer due to high summer rates and about 50 cents in the winter .
not much profit but a kick ass pc best I ever had.
And when the 2990wx drops on sale 10 minute up grade.

I paid 404 for the 1920x.
I am getting about 800 to 900 on xmr stake.
Happy with it so far.
I burn very little power getting the 800-900
