Looks good here. Identical motherboards (ASUS x370 Prime-Pro),
different CPUs.
3950x
Interesting. I thought the 3950X needs a newer motherboard.
This board has the 3950x listed on the compatibility matrix, so I took
the punt. I am running a beta BIOS with the 1.0.0.4 AGESA but it's
running in a stock production environment and has been stable. I don't
overclock or game, it's predominantly a VM host.
Is that CPU as amazing as everyone says it is ?
It is fairly impressive and a significant update over the 1800x it
replaced. Kernel compiles are pretty quick :)
And does it really need liquid cooling ?
No. I'm using a stock AMD Wraith Prism cooler in a 4U rack case.
It might reach higher boost clocks with better cooling, but under an
all-core load I still see > 4.1GHz across all cores.
