@Paul_D
----------------------------------------Not saying it's you. I was just questioning about those results. Check the Southbridge, X370? I thought TR is going to be X399  |

Geekbench is just a syntetic benchmark and it is absolutely not representative for high core CPUs.
I have Ryzen 1700 and Xeon 2683v3 (14c/28t working at 2,5Ghz@full load). Bothh are crunching MCM only, both at stock voltage. Xeon is faster by about 10% but it costs five times more (!!!), draws 80% more power and needs much more expensive motherboard. Ryzen R7 is simply the best CPU for WCG at the moment. Of course there are Intel CPUs that are faster but work/$ and watt/$ Ryzen is unbeatable. Threadripper won't be worse, why should be? |

This ranks the 32 Thread "Threadripper" in 7th place. All those ahead have more threads.

I wouldn't really call that apples to apples though, comparing a 10 core i9 to a 16 core AMD. I realize they are basing off price, but dont really agree with it. |

Try running something else than the short FAHV, if that's what you're running with their hugely inflated credit/hs and then report back in 14 days, with normalized points. Here's my report of 13 days running SCC My host on Free DC for you guys to compare the output before someone say I photochop the pic: http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=host&proj=bwcg&hostid=3839262  |

For comparison my dual E5-2650 running OET using ~250w
----------------------------------------http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=host&proj=bwcg&hostid=3839262 If you can find a board these cost $60 these days I can buy a complete 1u server with 1Gb ram per thread for <£300 Is threadripper better ?? of course it is but how long would you run for in terms of cost of electricity when you look at the purchase cost difference  |

Well... Threadripper will be more or less two times faster than your dual E5-2650 config. And will consume less power. (And produce less heat, important thing if you are using air conditioning).
Of course it won't be better in terms of perf/$ but you are comparing five years old used stuff with brand new. |
