Popular Post Solstice380 Posted April 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 15, 2020 These are the results for my new system that I posted in the EC Modulators thread. i9-9900KS, Asus RTX 2080 Advanced, Asus Maximus Hero Z390 mobo, M.2 drive, AIO water cooled. Haven't done much Windows trimming, yet. It can run Closed Form - 16M with ASDM7EC 44/16 to 256 DSD. I think that is (one of) the hardest combos and I don't have to worry about changing rate family with my 48K base capable DAC. CPU at 27% but has a couple cores pretty loaded, and GPU at 12% . Core temps stay around 43 deg C. All while doing a RDC to the NUC NAA, surfing like this, and taking screen snips to post. jabbr, 4est and motberg 3 https://audiophilestyle.com/profile/21384-solstice380/?tab=field_core_pfield_3 Link to comment
Solstice380 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 @jabbr I ran the GeekBench benchmark so I could compare. i9-9900KS at 5GHz Asus RTX2080 Advanced I'm not sure how to compare OpenCL to CUDA, though. I understand that OpenCL code runs faster. For my use case I'm extremely happy. And @Jussi keeps killing us... DSD512 with EC modulators in realtime probably won't happen in my lifetime! 😂 2.5X the 9900KS.... ouch. https://audiophilestyle.com/profile/21384-solstice380/?tab=field_core_pfield_3 Link to comment

JC Some of the HQP filters require the GPU, and for convolution with impulse response for room correction. https://audiophilestyle.com/profile/21384-solstice380/?tab=field_core_pfield_3 Link to comment

I just ran their GPU Test and it returned the OpenCL result. I was curious why @jabbr got a CUDA result and I got the OpenCL. Difference between my GPU and the Ti? Or? https://audiophilestyle.com/profile/21384-solstice380/?tab=field_core_pfield_3 Link to comment

Popular Post Solstice380 Posted April 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 17, 2020 @TubeLover You can get the 9900K at <US$500 now at microcenter and others. You don't NEED the GPU to do most of the filters with the new EC modulators, which is what everyone seems to like. The Fractal cases (nice) are $160-200, Seaonic PSU ~$200, Asus or Gigabyte mobo ~$200-250, cooler for $60, RAM for $75. Everyone likes the Noctua coolers and Jussi recommends a specific HyperX Predator low latency CL13 RAM, which I got. You can search for the P/N in the Build a HQP server thread. That will get you great performance and allow you to run most anything on HQP for <US$1500. There is a comment above about not being able to do Closed Form-16M filter without the GPU. What DSD rate do you plan to use and do you think you will do room correction convolution? motberg and jabbr 1 1 https://audiophilestyle.com/profile/21384-solstice380/?tab=field_core_pfield_3 Link to comment

Main thing for the server seems to be CPU speed and RAM latency.. https://audiophilestyle.com/profile/21384-solstice380/?tab=field_core_pfield_3 Link to comment
