[passey89]

double post.

Nothing says it quite like 16 core / 32 threads and 48GB of RAM

 

[zakblood]

best to give a budget and what you want it for, or you may get lotto answers.

and quickest doesn't mean best either, as with no o/s it's just a pile of parts.

please remember only windows 8 pro and above supports dual cpu's, but very few programs do, and no repeat none games do!

 

[Something Else]

is this one of the many dream threads again?

will this actually be built or is it a massive waste of time?

its gonna b a dream thread as always.

No budget means its not gonna b real

actually windows 7 prof also supports 2 physical cpu's

i stand corrected, my info was off m/s

anyway, it wont do more than 2 cpu's and 4 core on each then, windows 8 will

quote "16 core / 32 threads and 48GB of RAM"

wouldn't work on windows 7 pro ^^ etc

says unlimited cores, which isn't true...

Obviously Win7 seems to be unable to handle more than 8 processors in the system (ie 2 x 4core, or 1 x 4core + 4 hyperthreaded)

unless it's been patched by now?

tbh unless you can actualy find some 1 with a xeon cpu thats actually running windows 7 normal not server edition I doubt were going to find out.

Thread is a if I win the lottery anyway.

Op hasnt stated

how much he wants to spend?
OS or not?
Monitor?
peripherals?

 

[zakblood]

true, found loads that say it didn't do or couldn't see all cores etc

 

[Doomedspeed]

To OP, if you actually want some really help.. Give us some guidelines.

passey89, you appear to have missed a couple of these

Oh, the bi-monthly "Find the most expensive of everything and pick 2 of them" threads...

Yawn!

 

[Narj]

Haha... that's amazingly cheap though, might do just fine for something I have in mind with a bit of RAM!

 

[wkingsnorth]

Passey, that's an interesting take on liquid cooling... no pump?
