I have a z820 32 cores, 128GB of RAM, 3 nVidia GeForce GT 710 cards, and 3 x 5TB drives. You're not missing much with the z640. I have a z620 as well. The z620 just has 2 fewer PCI-E slots. The difference is the same for the z840 and z640.
- the_real_sparky 9y agoI just assume that the larger Z8 chassis might handle the heat a little better? The Z6 works for my use, but the CPUs are definitely running on the hot side.
- oso2k 9y agoMaybe. With a bunk front fan on my z820, everything still runs relatively cool at maybe a max of ~55C (2 CPUs, 3 GPUs, 16 sticks of RAM) according to sensors util in RHEL.
- PascLeRasc 9y agoCan you explain the 3x Nvidia 710s? The only reasoning I can think of is running ~6 monitors silently, but the heatsink-only cards aren't usually used in prebuilts so I'm a little confused.
- oso2k 9y agoExactly. 6 monitors in 3x2, they're super cost effective at $40-$45, and silent as you mentioned.
