!<abbr title="Memory speed is commonly expressed in effective frequency, which means data transfer cycles performed each second. For example, DDR3 1600 refers to a 1600 million transfer per second. Each RAM transfer cycle consists of a 64-bit word, or eight bytes. By multiplying the frequency by eight, you convert transfers-per-second into bytes-per-second, namely the theoretical bandwidth. For DDR3 1600, its bandwidth is 12.8 gigabytes per second. Memory is designed to be backward-compatible, so generally speaking, you can safely add faster memory to a computer that was designed to run slower memory. However, your system will operate at the speed of the slowest memory module. One thing to keep in mind is that the memory does need to be the same type.">Speed</abbr>

!Timing

!<abbr title="Memory timings or RAM timings measure the performance of DRAM memory using four parameters: CL, tRCD, tRP, and tRAS in units of clock cycles; they are commonly written as four numbers separated with dashes, e.g. 7-8-8-24. The fourth (tRAS) is often omitted, and a fifth, the Command rate, sometimes added (normally 2T or 1T ?also 2N, 1N). These parameters specify the latencies (time delays) that affect the speed of the random access memory. Lower numbers usually imply faster performance. What determines absolute system performance is the actual latency time, usually measured in nanoseconds. For example CL=7 for memory bus with clock 1ns (frequency 1000MHz), gives an absolute latency of 7ns. Other memory with CL=8 and memory bus 0.75ns (750ps, frequency 1333MHz), gives an absolute latency of 6ns.">Timing</abbr>

!<abbr title="DDR3 memories operate at lower voltages compared to DDR2 memories, which in turn operate at lower voltages compared to DDR memories. This means that DDR3 memories consume less power than DDR2 memories, which in turn consume less power than DDR memories. Typically, DDR memories are fed with 2.5 V, DDR2 memories are fed with 1.8 V, and DDR3 memories are fed with 1.5 V. DDR3L, the low Voltage DDR3, supports 1.35V and 1.5V operation. When configured at 1.35V, DDR3L memory can reduce server power consumption by 15% or more over an equivalent 1.5V memory, especially on servers. Some memory modules may require higher voltages than those listed. This happens especially with memories supporting the operation of clock rates higher than the official ones (i.e., memories targeted to overclocking).">Voltage</abbr>

Revision as of 21:44, 30 June 2024

Quite some time ago, we wrote up some specs on a PC Build. Fast-forward to 2024 and it's time to build a new Linux Workstation and here's some details on that.

Processor[edit | edit source]

Intel Core i9-14900K 3.2 GHz 24-Core Processor

  • Game without compromise. Play harder and work smarter with Intel Core 14th Gen processors
  • 24 cores (8 P-cores + 16 E-cores) and 32 threads. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 770 included
  • Leading max clock speed of up to 6.0 GHz gives you smoother game play, higher frame rates, and rapid responsiveness
  • Compatible with Intel 600-series (with potential BIOS update) or 700-series chipset-based motherboards
  • DDR4 and DDR5 platform support cuts your load times and gives you the space to run the most demanding games
