I bought once Supermicro workstation (dual Xeon 2680), and it was LOUD. Even when shut down, the fans were still making noise, so I've had a habit of turning it off from power to make it silent. While the idea looked appealing at the beginning (dual CPU, 64GB RAM, great cable management), at the end I've decided that it doesn't justify the cost and hassle. Plus sometimes there were very funny issues - for example to run Rocksmith you needed to manually set affinity on windows to run it on only one CPU. After upgrading to last gen Thinkpad extreme it feels that Thinkpad even does 4k rendering faster.
