Noctua says their new singletower NH-U12 will perform like the NH-D15, it is due to be released later this year. They updated it with two of their new fans and added surface area by making fin stack thicker/longer because the fans can handle more flow resistance.

Outside of the high end of enthusiast processors and overclocking server grade stuff, whether you have air or an AIO won't matter as long as you get something that cools well. The processors are going to hit their limit at the same point provided you have an adequate cooler, and whether it's running at 83c or 60c doesn't matter unless you're expecting huge spikes in ambient temperature. And even then, my i7 3770k maxed out at 78c-82c before delid in 20c ambient and was still stable at up to 48c ambient. I have a 1070 that doesn't go 30c above ambient on its stock non-blower cooling. It won't go above 56c or so on stock cooling even overvolted at a normal room temperature provided I use an aggressive fan curve. My 3770k would have sucked on anything because the TIM was so bad. After delidding, it's not thermals holding me back. I'm just not willing to throw potentially damaging voltage at ancient processor that I've abused endlessly. Quality air coolers and the water cooling solutions that cost about the same perform almost identically in terms of noise and thermals. Sometimes, it even favors the air cooler. AIOs take up less functional space in the case and people like how they look. Air coolers are a big hunk of metal with some fans attached. If you have an i7 or lower or current gen ryzen stuff, that's about the only difference between them besides "perception". If you want to venture into more expensive than air territory, water cooling can have a higher price cap, and at those higher prices you will get quieter setups with a lower aesthetic number Khorne fucked around with this message at 13:04 on Jun 28, 2018 |

I suspect it's going to be a TIM similar to liquid metal instead of solder, he mentioned that Intel was experimenting with such a compound in one of his older videos, just like he mentioned 8C Coffee Lake during the 8700K launch last year. Maybe they found the long term performance to be good enough and figured out a way to package it so it doesn't spill during transport (i.e. by applying some sort of gasket material around right the die).

redeyes posted:All in one coolers are sucky? Reasons? The one thing AIOs have going for them is that they're easier to install, otherwise they're more expensive, they introduce pump noise besides the fan noise, and a failure can be way more catastrophic than with air coolers. The Scythe mugen 5 is under 50 euros and can keep up with way more expensive AIOs, it's my go to recommendation for anyone who doesn't want to spend Noctua money

Second gen phi doesn’t count as an accelerator, but they killed the third gen phi anyway. Paul MaudDib posted:Tell ya what though, if I can get some surplus Phis for video encoding I'd be all over that. 64C of AVX512 would tear x265 the gently caress up. you’d end up like the dude in this thread who picked up one of the first gen at $200 for to port his scientific software to takes too much time to tune, nvidia already got to the annoying to write for market segment on lock

The beauty of the socketed Phis is you don't need to port software, it's just a CPU with a shitload of cores and AVX. x264/x265 should just run.

Encoders AVX512 paths might not work on Phi since those paths were designed for Skylake-X, and Phi (Knights Landing/Mill) doesn't fully support the AVX512 subsets that Skylake-X supports. https://twitter.com/InstLatX64/status/969560033922035713?s=19

It’ll run, it won’t run well. Turns out getting enough memory bandwidth for seventy cores is hard and the mcdram performance is funky. But sure throw two hundred threads on there and it might be a decent encoder.

I wonder if this is at customer request or part of some Intel-driven push to get the NUC in more graphics-intensive roles. I wonder if it's a reaction to AMD launching the Ryzen Embedded line since they have the same graphics as the consumer Ryzen APUs (which completely blow Intel HD Graphics out of the water). I can easily imagine industrial/commercial vendors choosing Ryzen Embedded solution over an Intel NUC for the superior graphics performance (e.g. for medical devices or digital signage).

PCjr sidecar posted:that was Intel’s big lie. It’ll run, it won’t run well. Again though, I literally only care about video encoding, so if it does that at say 5-10x the performance of a 5820K that would be worth like $500 to me, no sweat. Not having good AVX512 support in the encoder would be a downer, but it should still have AVX2, right? And maybe the instructions they are using happen to coincide with that sweet spot? Again, even if it was only a 5-10x speedup that wouldn't be bad, if the price was right. Or, if you can trivially recompile it for the proper support, that would be fine too. If there's hand-coded assembler, that might be a maybe if you could just ctrl-v the appropriate sections from the AVX2 version, or just fall back to those versions. The standalone PCIe cards are a hard no though. WhyteRyce posted:But wasn't it cool being able to SSH into it? Can you still do this on KNL?

What would AVX512 do practically in the video encoder? Didn't x264 specifically avoid AVX for a long while?

Combat Pretzel posted:What would AVX512 do practically in the video encoder? Didn't x264 specifically avoid AVX for a long while? x264 avoided AVX1 because that's almost exclusively floating point instructions that are useless for encoding, but AVX2 added integer counterparts and they absolutely use those. https://mailman.videolan.org/pipermail/x264-devel/attachments/20130423/ffd6bfb6/attachment-0001.pdf

spasticColon posted:Is adding two more cores and hyper-threading really going to cause the TDP on 9000 series i7s to go to the moon? I guess if all they do is add two more cores and everything else more or less the same they'll only have to raise TDP by 30% to fit the same all-core turbo. The i7-8700K is already perfectly capable of drawing >150W sustained if you let it run all cores at its stock max turbo though.
