 One thing I learned when building my own computers ... if you want to go for the latest and greatest ... get ready to work out problems.
Agree. Just think of all the v3 and v3 out there for E5 chips.

I owned a 3900 for one week but sent it back. If you're looking for max kN/s, buy some other chip.

 Would it not be much better to wait till 11-12/2019 and get a much more powerful Threadripper system?

Re: The Busted Dutch
