"We can't shrink the node anymore" is bad. But that's not the problem that we're facing. The problem that the industry is facing is "We can't shrink the node anymore on SILICON." Honestly, it's amazing that we've even managed to get to this point on the one single element since the beginning of the semiconductor era.

There's a new BIOS out for the X370 Taichi that contains a new AGESA. It appears to do little else but update the microcode on Raven Ridge to support IBPB instructions for Spectre V2 mitigation.

Not necessarily. The industry has been working on drop-in silicon replacements like SiGe, SiC, SiGa, BP, and most recently InGaAs and GaN for almost a decade now. Intel has said, at various points in the past ten years, and as recently as 2015, that they will be moving away from silicon at their 7nm node. Whether or not they can *get* to that 7nm node, and how long it takes them to actually get there, is an entirely different slice of cake, but it's not like the entire industry hasn't put any thought into this whatsoever.

I was actually serious about it being hilarious, I'd rather have "the monster truck of computing" than the "radeon rebellion". The latter is cringey for me, the former is obviously not taking itself seriously at all. The metaphor of a monster truck kinda fits anyway given the abnormally large package. (  )

Khorne posted:Can do cool things a normal car can't. You're never going to do those things, but there's no debate that it could do them. While we're on this metaphor, need I remind people that Infiniband QDR 40 GbE cards are like $30 a pop, and cables are like $10 a pop? You don't even need a switch necessarily, you can do a direct/crossover connection with a standard cable. Those adapters have 2 ports per card, so you can connect up to 3 machines in a triangle, or daisy-chain additional machines. And if you do need a switch, we're talking like $175, not $600 like a 8-port 10Gbase-T switch. Runs longer than 7m get expensive, but for that throughput you could probably afford to put the machines next to each other, right? The NAS to back it up at full crazypants 800 MB/s transfer rate with 64 TB of raw storage is only like another $1300... wouldn't you like to boot that other machine you use from your own personal SAN?

I can shovel 1.8GB/s over my 40GbE connection. I wish Microsoft wouldn't be a dick and support iSER and SRP, or help Samba implementing RDMA, then it could be potentially up to 6GB/s

Oh sure, I'm just talking raw HDD throughput here. If you have NVMe backing it up with cache/direct storage it can be a lot faster.

The actual dumb thing is that since I didn't have NVMe onboard my gaming rig, and I wasn't willing to commit to my steam drive being a virtual device on the NAS, my main HDD was the bottleneck. I still found my IB 40 GbE NIC very useful... it could deliver whatever I asked of it, drive speeds over the network, but I could also be dumping something from my older NAS to the newer one over the ethernet at the same time. Potentially, if you only have one or two HDDs in your rig, you could do that with Gigabit too, if your mobo has dual NICs or you can add an adapter card. Having a dedicated channel between your main rig and your NAS actually owns pretty hard. Probably not cheaper than IB these days, but maybe more flexible. All it took was adding a hosts mapping on my gaming rig that said that traffic to the NAS should resolve to a 10.0.x address while my 1Gbase-T network resolves to 192.168.x. And vice versa for the NAS. They can coexist on regular gbit ethernet while also having their own private device-to-device host mapping. And there is no problem doing this on 10 Gbase-T or 10GbSFP either, you just need a NIC and a cable (crossover for 10GbaseT, the cable I linked above for SFP). You can buy the NICs now (how about that X399 Fatal1ty board with the onboard NIC) and have your dedicated 10 GbE NAS channel now, and have your future 10Gbase-T network upgrade set as well. You can get 10 Gbase-T NICs for about $100-150 a pop iirc. Paul MaudDib fucked around with this message at 18:40 on Mar 10, 2018 |

What kind of bottlenecks might you encounter - I imagine local network bandwidth wouldn't be saturated by RAID even on not-cutting-edge home networks.
