My current server is a Core2Quad with 8GB of ram. Ram is my major limiting factor as I do lot of VMs and plan to expand that by making some training environments and what not. I need more ram, but 8 is the max I can go.
I'm toying with buying this:
Supermicro 5016T-MTFB
6 x Kingston 4GB DDR3-1333 PC3-10666 ECC
1x Intel Core i7 960 Quad Core Processor LGA1366 3.2GHZ Bloomfield 8MB LGA1366 4.8GT/S
Comes up to $1,806.24 total
I don't have that money right now, so I would be buying this in at least a couple months from now, and maybe it will go down even more by then.
Also, anything else I need to buy or is that all I need for a fully working system? I have a feeling I'm missing something here. The rails usually come with SM barebones right?
