My favourite setup is an HPz620 v2 with e5-xxxxv2 CPUs, and >= 64 gigs of ram.
Basically any workstation with 2 Intel Xeon E5-2650 V2, or the L variant (lower power) will do.
for example:
1 x HP Z620 Grade A - 800W - V2
2 x Intel Xeon E5-2650 V2 - 8-Core 2.60Ghz (20MB Cache, 8.00GTs, 95W)
1 x HP Z420, Z620 - Heatsink
1 x HP Z620 2nd CPU Riser Board, Fan & Heatsink
8 x 8GB - DDR3L 1333MHz (PC3L-10600R, 2RX4, ECC REG)
1 x 2TB - SATA (7.2K, 3G) HDD - Major Brand
You'll need a new graphics card and an SSD, but that is £750 inc vat. this means you can spend £500 on an nvidia RTX, and get a 6k monitor.
- Obsnold 7y agoThanks I've found it difficult to find any info on what I can expect for certain hardware. It seems most people are either hobbyists who are on similar hardware to me or people working for big companies who can afford massive build servers.
