I've seen some fairly high hashrates reported for Threadripper on Monero, pretty sure they were using XMR-Stak miner.

I don't remember WHERE I saw them mentioned specifically though - servethehome's "monero" thread perhaps?

my 1800x with no overclock does 575

how many watts?

Could you share what miner and settings you use?

I'd most likely avoid anything that already has a GPU miner made for it. With the exception being probably Monero.
It's still a solid coin to mine with a CPU. It is also the only popular/successful coin that is still CPU-profitable.
I am not aware of other decent CPU-only coins though, so I'll let someone else fill that spot.

Thanks. It's weird that I cannot find any guides on hash rates with the Threadripper. Anyone else mining Monero with it?

I'm interested in this too as I have the ryzen 7 and it's a beast of a CPU

These CPU's are supposed to be good bang for the buck. Anyone know something good to mine with it to help recoup the cost of the Threadripper?
