August 22, 20223 yr Right now my server is an Intel X99 chipset with 32GB of memory and an old Intel 3930K processor. I still can't believe Intel sells that thing. Anyway, would moving to a B550 chipset with a newer Ryzen processor speed up unraid? Right now I use it as a media server and backup but will be using it more with VM's and other task orientated programs. I know the Intel 3930k processor was great when it was new, but now it's pretty much at the bottom of the list. The newer box will most likely have 64GB of ram. I've seen some pretty good deals on RAM, so I may as well upgrade that as well. I haven't upgraded my unraid server in several years and this will probably be the last but not sure which direction to go. I already have the B550-PLUS motherboard and memory. Would just need to grab a Ryzen processor. Then my X79 Sabertooth (which is what my unraid is now) can finally take a rest. Are there any unraid benchmarking lists around?
