'Budget' rackmount/server rig questions
#5
Not sell per se, but make a recommendation. My employer is a training provider and one of our courses will involve the use of the rig that we will be building. We always provide students with a full kit list with recommendations of suppliers and parts, but we're vendor-neutral so will provide various options, including (but not limited to) suppliers like Sagitta as well as building it themselves (many of the customers have internal teams for managing/designing their HPC/GPGPU setups)

Therefore whilst of course cracking performance is the number one priority, getting premium components is easily justifiable for our customers.

Ah the backplate removal is a good suggestion! Just the back half right?

7049... this? https://www.supermicro.nl/products/syste...GP-TRT.cfm

Using the 7049 would require Xeon Phi processors as it's LGA 3647 on the board, which are veeeeery pricey!
