General CPU Discussion / Re: POWER9 water cooling kit

« on: August 10, 2020, 05:46:05 pm »

This is really, really, really great. Is it a complete new development or an adapter for existing cooling solutions for e.g. LGA-2066 water cooling sets?

Anyway, I really appreciate your work.

I am looking forward to your OpenPOWER store.

What comes to mind is libreSOC. At first I was a bit skeptical, but now it looks promising.

Second that. A Raptor news section would be good on this board. I only joined Twitter because of Raptor ...

I might have split it up by continent for now. But it's a good idea anyway.

This will probably take some time (weeks). The same was the case with the 18 and 8-core POWER9.

Maybe IBM first.

A few little things:

Condor is for LaGrange CPU. All others for Sforza. Blackbird has a audio chip which the others haven't.

Good idea. On the TalosII table, you should notice that only in dual CPU configuration all PCIe slots are available. Otherwise like the TalosII lite.

Blackbird / Re: using bigger CPUs with some cores disabled on Blackbird?

Haven't tried, but would be interesting if a change in SMT (ppc64_cpu --smt=n) level influences power consumption also.

I don't know if there are enough users already, but a news section would be good.

I have changed the settings, so the "compress" message doesn't popup again.
