Message 2028263 - Posted: 18 Jan 2020, 2:41:35 UTC

I don't know if I want to laugh or cry. I have a 3950x running a Asus ROG Cross Hair VII motherboard.

A little while ago I used the "TPU" automatic overclock in the Bio settings. It announced a 5% overclock.

What is interesting is at 3.7Ghz (up from slightly under 3.5Ghz) it is using less cpu volts and running cooler.... than it was running at 3.5Ghz.

That setting manipulates a lot of BIOS settings under the covers. Some form of moderate AMD overclocking rules and could be achieved the same way through the standard AMD overclocking menu. Just a recipe probably thought up by The Stilt for ASUS. There are lots of pre-canned things in the BIOS that he developed when he worked for ASUS.

Glad you got even lower voltage and temps. But does it hold under BOINC load? You saw the effect of going too low in Vcore under your 90% loading.

I will take a look at it this morning after I am finished with my obligatory morning routine items. If it is still running then apparently it is happy. If it isn't then I guess I will revert to 1.25 volts on a pure basic setup.

I am now wondering if there are any Ryzen motherboards besides the one Biostar that has quit on me that have an accessible "Above 4G" setting in their bios? I am being told that my cheapy 1 to 4 expansion card has a PLX chip on it. But I haven't been able to get past 6 gpu's on two different Asus MB's. I ordered a 1 to 8 card on the off chance...

Still running. Still running cooler :) This should be a good day to get my socket fan re-installed.

Last night late I got a test boot to work for my Amd 3900x cpu on its newest home. So today it (probably) will get installed and start munching. The current plan is the Amd 3950x will be 100%. Seti And the 3900x will take over all the cpu crunching for World Community Grid as well as some Seti gpu crunching.

"Cool" beans :)

I could not find any sign of "Above 4G decoding" in any previous C7H official BIOS output. But I have never played around with any modded BIOS. That might be exposed in a modded BIOS, but probably not.

The AMD 3900x just came up and downloaded a full set of cpu tasks from WCG. Apparently the Seti server isn't passing anything out so I went ahead and installed the E@H project with a resource of "0" and it promptly downloaded three gpus worth of tasks.

Now I have to go figure out how Keith had me install some wmi sensors.

This Rig has been slimmed down to up to 6 GPU cards (it was an 8 card mining Rack). I am running two straight off the MB and the other one and its 3 empty riser cards off a 1 to 4 expander card plugged into the 3rd "long slot" on the MB. The MB is the Asus Prime X470-Pro MB (Thank Keith for the recommendation).
I am going to recommend this MB to anyone who doesn't want to pay for the power/stability of a CH Hero VII. It has 6 slots to CH Hero's 5 (I am using an M.2 adapter for the 6th GPU on the CH Hero VII MB).

It should blow past 100, 000 RAC on Seti@Home without to much trouble.

Tom
ps. I got it set up just in time for an Arctic cold air blast due in today. Its heating the Master Bedroom till summer when it will get too hot.

I have to remember to cd to the newly created folder where the clone of the git repository is sitting. The make works MUCH better then.

Forget dkms, just install it.
tlgalenson@moonshot4:~$ sudo make install

You can go back later and install dkms.

I was running with that TPU1 for "air cooled" systems and it got all ambitious at set it to 4Ghz. Once I got the sensors setup it was running just shy of 90C. Feeling the heat I went back to "optimized defaults" turned off the core boost and the precision boost. Turned on the D.O.C.P. (?) ram settings and now it is doing this:

Unless you trimmed a lot of the sensors outputs, that doesn't look correct for the output of asus-wmi-sensors. The Tsensor1 for example should be +216°C. for an unterminated input.
Try running sensors -u for the raw sensor outputs idents.

Tom,

My Gigabyte X570 Ultra has the "Above 4G" setting. Kinda of a pricey board for just that feature. Perhaps some the other Gigabyte boards for Ryzen also have this feature. Not really sure how to check.

Some systems (mainly servers) implement IPMI, a set of common interfaces
through which system health data may be retrieved, amongst other things.
We first try to get the information from SMBIOS. If we don't find it
there, we have to read from arbitrary I/O ports to probe for such
interfaces. This is normally safe. Do you want to scan for IPMI
interfaces? (YES/no): y

Some hardware monitoring chips are accessible through the ISA I/O ports.
We have to write to arbitrary I/O ports to probe them. This is usually
safe though. Yes, you do have ISA I/O ports even if you do not have any
ISA slots! Do you want to scan the ISA I/O ports? (YES/no): y

Probing for `Winbond W83782D' at 0x290...                   No

Lastly, we can probe the I2C/SMBus adapters for connected hardware
monitoring devices. This is the most risky part, and while it works
reasonably well on most systems, it has been reported to cause trouble
on some systems.

Sorry, no sensors were detected.
Either your system has no sensors, or they are not supported, or
they are connected to an I2C or SMBus adapter that is not
supported. If you find out what chips are on your board, check
http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Devices for driver status.

I am certainly unclear here.

Not sure if this is the right place amongst all the motherboard/mainboard/BIOS talk but here's an interesting article for some of the discussion points:


Talking Threadripper 3990X With AMD's Robert Hallock

... Intel is woefully incapable of responding to AMD's existing 32-core Threadripper 3970X, so dropping the 64-core 3990X is akin to delivering a killing blow in HEDT: AMD says this single processor can outperform two of Intel's $10,000 Xeon 8280's in some workloads...

... AMD noticed that customers tend to jump right to the top of the stack or choose the "sweet spot" product...

... Hallock explained that the bottleneck "suddenly shifts to really weird places once you start to increase the core counts." Some areas that typically aren't a restriction, like disk I/O, can hamper performance in high core-count machines. For instance, development houses exclude project files from Windows Defender to reduce the impact of disk I/O during compile workloads.

Hallock doesn't see memory throughput as a limitation in the majority of workloads, but told us that memory capacity per core is actually one of the biggest challenges. As a result, Hallock said that compile workloads require a bare minimum of 1GB per core (64GB total), and that 2GB (128GB total) is better...

... AMD has also made architectural decisions to keep data on-chip, like an almost unthinkable 288MB of total cache, a third AGU (Address Generation Unit), and larger opcaches, among other changes, that help keep data in the caches...

... AMD's official launch date lands on February 7, 2020...

Forget dkms, just install it.
tlgalenson@moonshot4:~$ sudo make install

You can go back later and install dkms.

mkdir -p /lib/modules/4.15.0-74-generic/kernel/drivers/hwmon
cp asus-wmi-sensors.ko /lib/modules/4.15.0-74-generic/kernel/drivers/hwmon/

Yes, the list looked like EVERY MSI board offers "Above 4G decoding" ASUS rarely it appears.

The output of sensors-detect is as expected. It can't install anything for the ITE8665E SIO chip. That is why we always have to install 3rd party out of branch drivers like it87 or asus-wmi-sensors.
All it is useful for is showing that an ITE SIO chip is found at ISA address 0290.
Why don't you ask for help on the asus-wmi-driver support page. It says the X470 Prime Pro is supported. Do you have the requisite BIOS version?

True the disruptive thing that AMD has managed in de cpu world is beyond our imagination. if you asked people 4 years ago how many cores would we have on mainstream and hedt nobody would had responed with 16 cores or 64.

What most reviewers failed to address here is de multi processing power almost all viewers always look ad gaming even on the hedt cpu's while content workloads and scientific workloads are mostly forgotten. But for us seti users this core race is only good my ryzen 3700x is had the same computing power as 2 i7-7700k so comuting powers goes up powerdraw goes down. i could be more exciting for the developments

Thank you. Although I am selling the Amd 3900x I still have a 2700x with the Prime MB's name on it. So I am going to be wanting to know what I can do to improve that more limited result.. The Bios is the very latest one for that MB (don't remember the number, the box is in the other room). Took that to get the 3900x to run.

And in this article it perhaps explains why there is no octal memory channel version in that AMD are endeavouring to maintain the differential between the 3990 and the EPYC brand to justify the increased price. Thus it is not that they cannot it is that they will not.
