There is not an EPYC 7xx4. EPYC 8004 is Siena. We reviewed an ASRock Rack Siena platform this week actually.

We had this in the Genoa launch piece but AMD largely kept $/core constant between Milan and Genoa. Milan is still being sold since it uses cheaper PCIe Gen4 motherboards and DDR4.

On the server side it takes a few quarters for new products to start making up the majority of shipments. These days it is better to think of new servers as N, N-1, and still some N-2 generations being sold as new.

Yea, it looks better for when we put it on screen in videos though.

Easy one would be the P part is single socket only.

I was browsing one day looking for barebones to throw in one of our clusters and saw Newegg was selling these 1U servers cheap ($2200-2300)

Usually with AMD desktop and server CPUs buying high core counts at lower TDP yields a great perf/ W figure

We bought Newegg out of all the new Tyan systems they had in stock. I was hoping to do a piece on them, but they must have had few in inventory

Good one. These presentations are like 30 min each so it is hard to stay on top of all of them.

Thanks. We will have more in a bit, and may not get to all of them. I was talking to lots of folks that came to say hi today. Trying to get at least a good portion of these done this week.

I am not going ot post our own links, but last week we did the UM790 and we have the GTR7 Pro review coming as well.

Yes. I think that is a solid NUC alternative with one exception: the lack of USB4/ Thunderbolt as standard. Intel was very good about including TB on its NUC line and also did a better job upgrading to 2.5GbE.

Yes. We have done pieces on the BlueField-2 DPUs running Ubuntu and doing things like running ZFS and iSCSI off of the DPU's Arm cores as well. This is the BlueField-3 base, so a faster Arm core complex and more memory bandwidth.

Sometimes 2-3 tries but that is also from pacing. I usually have my laptop out to reference quickly but no prompter. People can tell when I read from one, so I have just had to get comfortable without reading.

We are going to have a Dell PowerEdge review tomorrow. We call that a server or more than one servers not server units so that would feel strange to me.

Well that was the part number for the NVMe expansion kit. TBH that is one of the hardest things about doing server reviews on YouTube... The model names

It is hard to title since they are stopping servers, but not server CPUs.

This is servers, the systems like Dell, Supermicro, and others sell, not server CPUs (aka Xeons)

That is why I said servers not Xeon or chip. I was not sure how else to describe it other than servers since that is what is being sold.
