For $1000 you could basically build one today. 5950x (16c cpu) is $400, 128gb kit of ddr4 is $250-300, maybe enough budget left for mobo, ssd, psu, case, cooler

For $1000 you could basically build one today. 5950x (16c cpu) is $400, 128gb kit of ddr4 is $250-300, maybe enough budget left for mobo, ssd, psu, case, cooler if you bought used bits (may also need cheapest gpu on Craigslist depending on your needs). All new ~$1200. Aws/gcp prices are nuts compared to on prem, although hetzner and co would be much cheaper.
- omgwtfbyobbq 3y agoYeah, Cloud is definitely a money maker. If someone has a microcenter nearby, they could build an 8 core ddr4 system with 128gb of ram for maybe $800. $3200+ could build a 64 core/128gb ddr5 rig. https://www.newegg.com/tyan-s8050gm2ne-9534-amd-epyc-9534-2-45ghz-installed/p/N82E16813151352 https://www.newegg.com/tyan-s8050gm2ne-9534-amd-epyc-9534-2-...
