:D Nice.

Indeed. :) Thanks?

Thanks for the feedback, as always! Glad you enjoyed it.

Sorry, I missed your question when you posted it originally. You've probably already moved on, but we did apply one of the built in overclock profiles to the memory and have been using the PC off and on for a couple months now for editing videos in Premiere without any instability. I'd need to check tomorrow on what speed we managed to set them to and get back to you.

be aware the max speed posted by amd for threadripper is 2667MHz

Thanks! Glad you liked it.

Can you be more specific about what you see in the FS scores that seems off to you? The individual GPU scores seem pretty reasonable compared to what we saw with this GPU previously and the CPU / Physics scores are just a touch below what we saw with this CPU's big brother.

Not bad at all. During the livestream, they commented on it briefly during the benchmark run. It was pretty quiet.

I feel like it carries its metallic look well in person, but yes, it's a pretty bright red if you're trying to gauge how to match it up.

We created the part list specifically for the livestream, so a few components will likely be recycled into our inventory for future content. That said, one of our developers is eyeing the high core count setup for a development rig, as he uses a lot of virtual machines.

And everyone in the office is eyeing that EVGA GTX 1080 Ti SC2. Something about wanting to "more fully benchmark" it.

Interesting. What CPU are you running? Are you overclocked past 3.5 GHz? I believe the OpenGL test is impacted by both GPU and CPU, but that's certainly a large gap to be behind. I'll re-run those test to make sure we didn't miss something.

Oh my. That's quite a request.. But glad you enjoyed this one!

Skimming the result files, it looks like the max CPU clock reached across any subset of 4 cores was 4.174 GHz, so close, but not quite 4.2. Typically the peak across most testing seemed to land around 4.123 GHz. The system is still built though, I'll see if we can push it a bit more and see if we can get there.

I have a similar case (no TG, just C) and you can look at my build with both front-mounted aio and heatsink for cpu cooling here https://pcpartpicker.com/b/BHWD4D

While cpu are has a good airflow, the gpu (at least with an open air coolers) gets higher than average temps due to the heat getting trapped and not really dissipating much in that area between psu shroud and gpu, causing the hot air to recirculate and warm up gpu further. I found no solution to this problem sadly and the restrictive front panel with dust filter just add up to the issue. If you mount a radiator in front - the temps will be even worse compared to using heatsink on a cpu. With that case I'd really suggest using a blower card. Surprisingly, you might end up getting better temps and less noise in that scenario.

I'll have to double check which mode the PSU is in, but after a couple months using the PC I haven't heard any notable noise from the PSU.

Yes, the X399 Gaming Pro Carbon AC includes an internal PCIe (x1) dual band / 802.11 ac card.

Definitely. The max system draw in this build is actually under 500W, though we usually allow some headroom for future GPU upgrades, etc. The main requirement that pushes you to higher wattage PSUs on X399 is the need for two CPU power connectors, which tend to only be available on higher wattage units. (The PCPartPicker system builder's compatibility check filters this for you automatically if you've added a motherboard that needs it before selecting a power supply.)
