Great information - this is one of the first processors which has me seriously thinking about upgrading my desktop from an i7-6xxxk. The latest chips from AMD are screaming fast for compile times!

Minor sidenote: I wish the article wasn't spread over 14 pages. It was.. a lot of clicking.

I specifically bailed after seeing the paging mechanism. I'm not going through all that.

Browser plugins like PageZipper might help you in regards to the multi-page clicking

I will say there were a lot of things on each page.

but yeah, maybe "all on one page" or "printable" might have been nice.

Great performance but I miss the competitively priced Threadrippers. In 2014 I was able to get a workstation type CPU with extra memory channels, ECC support, and such for roughly the same price as a similar scale consumer CPU. It took 9 years until I increased the amount of RAM and total memory bandwidth by getting a 2 channel DDR5 system with 192 GB, and I'd hardly call that much of a win over 128. At least the price of the RAM itself has come down greatly in that time!

How does that compare to M3 Max?

depends on the workload, but the ripper will be 5-10% slower single thread and 3-3.5x faster multithread.
