Saw that the Centriq 2434 (40 cores) is listed at RRP $888.
Does anyone know if you can get hold of a Centriq cpu & compatiple motherboard to build a local server or two? I fancy one in our lab rack to play around with.
I'm assuming that this is not possible and that they are currently just for datacentre partners who make a large order. But would be great to hear otherwise.
- chomp 9y agoIf you ask your distributor rep, they should be able to procure a single unit or two for testing. We did this when Calxeda was a thing.

- ballen 9y agoAsk your HPE or SuperMicro reps.
- bjackman 9y agoNot Centriq but I think there are boards with Cavium ARM chips that you can buy as a consumer (can't find link to cite so may be wrong, but may be a useful avenue for your search).
