The EPyc 7601 also same core/thread and cache size does 1750h/s monero, the pre-fork asic version.

This should be similar.

Overclocking is a never a good thing for cpus like this, back in 2008 when i bought the i7 920, people were overclocking and overvolting, I overclocked and undervolted hehe, that cpu consumed almost 500 watts overclocked, 300w idle. If you luckily hit the silicon lottery then you can undervolt it and keep stock clock, cost wise this is not for mining.
This is just to say mine is bigger then yours
I have always had very good CPUs but never a true state of the art pc.
I am tempted to do it.
I would hold out for the next ryzen 7nm, no point buying this right now.

It should do 2.4K on Monero, 8x an 8 core Ryzen. Lower clocks (across all cores) at stock but in my experience with 2 different Threadrippers is that they hash 20-25% over a Ryzen core to core ratio at the same clocks.... so they might do even better.
I'd be careful about overclocking on that x399 Taichi. It's a great motherboard but it's not designed for 250 watts like the second generation TR4 motherboards. I'm confident it will be ok at stock clocks, but I wouldn't overclock it.

not in the plan.
stock clocks for the ryzen.

If you want to get one to play with... sure, go for it. If you don’t like it, you can probably flip it and get most of your money back. But from a mining ROI standpoint, you know it’s not going to be worth it. Even if it does 2k CN, I could buy 8 RX 5xx (used) for the price of 1 chip and get 6-7k hash pretty easily.
not using under 250 watts
But I did decide to buy the taichi x399 from newegg today it will allow the 1950x or the new beast 2990wx.
I got multiple promos on the mobo
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.

I wonder what the cryptonightv7/heavy algo hashrate is going to be like under this bad boy.
almost 2k for a cpu though
almost 2k for a cpu though
1800 + 2% = 1836 ..
Mobo Taichi = 300
cost = 2136
cpu cooler = ............ I have stuff on hand
2x16gb > 32gb
1tb NVME ssd
case
psu
gpu
all on hand
it is very tempting to be state of the art

preorder on
Amazon
Newegg
Fry's
Microcenter
32 cores 64 threads 80MB cache a mofo beast
of course it is 1799 USD
I skipped the 1950x but I would like this monster.
Anyone going for it?
use this mobo
