That's terrible news - I remember Duncan very fondly. My thoughts are with your and you have my deepest condolences.

Even the latest bulk order of servers I placed at work are based on EPYC Zen 3 silicon. My general stance has always been "tie goes to Intel" - so this is pretty telling for me.

Still here. Thinking finally of building a Ryzen system. Which Ryzen processor is the sweet spot these days? Building a new system is fine, but I don't know when I could ever afford a video card again. Luckily I never sold my GTX 750.
