(Star those things about programmers)
On May 24th, Linus Torvalds announced in Linux Kernel 5.7-rc7 that his development computer (PC) has abandoned Intel CPU and changed to AMD thread tearer 3970x.
(Linus, an outstanding representative of programmers bringing goods)
Linus' switch to AMD was a hot topic in China last week .
As early as July 2014, Linus made an unprecedented public disclosure of his home office.
In this video, we can see Linus's working environment.
As for the hardware configuration information of his development machine, apart from last week he took the initiative to reveal that it was changed to AMD CPU, it should have never been announced.
On May 27th, in an interview with Steven Nichols of ZDNet, Linus further disclosed the hardware information of his development computer.
Lets come look:
CPU：AMD RyzenThreadripper 3970X
Motherboard: Gigabyte Aorus TRX40 Master
Fan: Noctua NF-A14 PWM, silent fan
CPU cooler: Noctua NH-U14S and Noctua NF-A15
Case: Be Quiet Dark Base 700
Extra Fan：Silent Wings 3
Power supply: Seasonic Focus GX-850
Hard Disk: 1TB SamsungEVO 970
Memory: 4 x 16GB DDR4-2666
The total price of these hardware configurations of Linus is about 3500+ USD.
Assemble these things, install Fedora 32, and Linus's beloved workstation is done.
In addition to building a computer, Linus will also buy the latest PC from an OEM manufacturer. He has a laptop computer called Dell XPS 13. Why buy it, in his words, is "to obtain new technology that could not be bought."
For laptops, he generally does not reveal the brand, but why did he make an exception this time? Is the manufacturer stuffing money?
No, because Linus likes it so much. When his daughter was in college, he bought her one.
(For all the above brands, please remember to pay in time! Cross out )
Everyone, what kind of hardware configuration are your development computers? Welcome to share in the comments
