You did not ask about SSD's before. In general, the disk storage is not a big factor because the data gets cached in RAM. So repeated reads from disk are read from RAM instead. Then there is the...

The number of cores is less important than the total bandwidth. If you search "intel ark E7-8880" you will find that all three processors have the same 85 GB/s bandwidth. This means that the eight...

This is a fun puzzle!

I think that you need at least two ranks per channel to reach maximum throughput, because the controller alternates addressing these ranks for better performance. It is...

The available bandwidth for your 8 channel system is:
DDR4-2133: 8*2133*8=136.5 GB/s
DDR4-2400: 8*2400*8=153.6 GB/s

Both your measurements do not reach the true limit. On a dual socket system,...

I recommend you go for cache because it helps memory performance which is critical for CFD. In addition, more cache usually means more chiplets. Each chiplet contributes it's own infiniti fabric...

Yes, I have gone down to 6200 MT/s and FCLK at 2067. On the 7800x3d the infinity fabric is the bottleneck. So I have FCLK:UCLK:MCLK 2:3:3. My performance improved to:

Ran this on 7800x3d and OpenFOAM v2312. Had to use the original setup, because of some naming changes in OpenFOAM. However, easy to insert the mirror operation in the old template.

There is a bios configuration with just 16 cores active per processor. Would be interesting to see if you get better performance.

Nice result! Impressive on first try too. Did you have anything else running during the 64 core run? It has no cores or threads to spare, so that would be my guess. I usually leave hyper...

I have not run this cpu myself. However, I seem to remember that the RAM was run at 4800 MT/s. That would be 33% faster. If you can run your memory at that frequency you might reduce your run time...

OpenFOAM solutions at higher core count are determined by memory bandwidth. The bandwidth to the various caches is much higher than the bandwidth to memory. In fact the memory will not even come...

That is based on a 100x40x40 grid, which is really a small problem. The benefit of the L3 cache reduces the larger the problem.

No, you can change the memory frequency (you can try) by going into the BIOS and set frequency from "auto" to "2400". Most likely, your DDR4-2133 will be able to be forced to run as DDR4-2400.

René,


I presume you now have eight RDIMMs of DDR4-2133, one DIMM per channel. So you can still improve by going to DDR4-2400, when you get your inheritance.


Otherwise, you now have one of...
