Any server-hosting with Ryzen + ecc-ram ?

I know but it's not ecc-ram.

"128 GB DDR4 ECC RAM" .. sounds pretty ECC to me.

I was talkin about Ryzen 8core more actually. Those have low clock speed. And are called EPYC.

Got it. For what it's worth I think EPYC is based on the same "Zen" arch as Ryzen.

With a bit enhanced memory controller, Zen refresh (2xxx) should do a bit better still.

Packet.net offers it:

Please see other comments. It's EPYC and not RYZEN. 2.0 Ghz base clock speed is not nice for single-thread.

For compilation it is a beast. Built a dual 7551 Epyc workstation for myself recently, it builds llvm in ~160 seconds from scratch. https://openbenchmarking.org/result/1809030-AR-DUAL7551867

God damn that's a beast!

Epyc is the name for the server chips. Both Ryzen and Epyc are based on the same microarchitecture.

Both based on Zen. Still I wanted the high-clock-core and not the hundred-slow-cores.

In that case, Threadripper is the core that is inbetween.

Do you have experience with packet.net ? There's virtually no discussion on HN, which I find surprising.
