Ask HN: Recommendation for desktop workstations
I am looking for something that has a high core count (> 8) and large amounts of ECC RAM (32GB+). Around the $4k-7k price range. Is it better to just build one?
- PythonDeveloper 9y agoYou can buy previously owned 16 core (32 threads) Xeon server with up to 64gb of ram for under $300 from garlandcomputers.com. I buy them all the time and they run perfectly. Just change out the case and add a video card.
- PaulHoule 9y agoOEMs charge insane amounts for RAM. If you buy you can save a lot by ordering a separate RAM upgrade.
