On black Friday, I bought a AMD 2600, 64 gb ram and 256 SSD + 6 TB 7200. And a 8 gb GPU.
I paid 1000€, 140€ shipping
Planning to do something similar for a 8 node rpi 4 cluster, depending the results ( 600€ because of PoE)
I'm pretty sure I will come out insanely more cheaper to run my microservice experiments with docker then hosting it in the cloud.
I don't care/talk about ARM currently. Where I work they will go for performance / € in the cloud.
Not many people care about ARM in the cloud. I don't know why the topic of coming from.
Or what I'm missing?
- imtringued 7y agoWhat made you skimp on the SSD? I bought a 512GB SSD for 66€ last year and now the newer equivalent model sells for 57€.
- kabdib 7y agoHmmm, at those prices I would worry about the quality of the SSD. (I've learned to trust a few brands, learned to avoid a few others, the hard way. The 512GB SSDs I'd consider purchasing go for 2X-4X your mentioned cost).
