![]() ![]() All of the options in this unit are factory-installed: 32GB of ECC DDR4 RAM (maximum 2TB), an AMD Radeon Pro WX 7100 workstation video card (roughly a hopped-up RX 480), a Samsung 960 EVO 500GB NVMe SSD on a PCIe card and a Microsemi PM8068 SAS 3.0 controller. By having both processors installed, all of the PCIe slots in this machine are unlocked (this was a deliberate design decision for efficiency, not to make you buy hardware you didn't need). It contains two four-core Sforza POWER9 processors on a 14nm process at 3.2/3.8GHz with 512K of L2 and 10MB of 元 per core there is a discrepancy with the wiki which says 3.1/3.7 but you can read Raptor's spec sheet. This system is best described as a middle-road configuration now that the 22-core chips are becoming available. This is about my experiences with the unit now that I've been using it most of today with my early firmware issues now largely corrected.įor what's in it, see my unboxing photographs from a few days ago. If you want performance benchmarks, you can read Phoronix's performance tests which are substantially more thorough than anything I could gin up. Relatively little is optimized for PowerPC these days, and even less still for little-endian PowerPC or POWER9 in particular. I'll call this a "semi-review" because, well, the system is a work in progress and getting the most from it will take time. ![]()
