October 18, 20232 yr Hello all, I am considering a new build in an old case... I Define 7... I have already bought a dual AMD CPU epyc MOBO+CPU combo to include 256g RAM and a 6900GT(xt?) GPU... and I plan on water cooling the whole thing... a mix of parts that I already have My current server setup has 136tb Pool across 19 disks(2 parity), that I would like to mirror on this rig... I mostly have 8tb drives with a few 14tb drives(I can get more) This new build(OG server build) I would like to make this my main rig... Run Unraid (as a backup array for the main system) and to host a VM (where I would conduct my work from) via the 6900xt(play some games with my son) There is alot to consider here... Can this be done? is it wise? again I have not used Epyc CPUs before... nor have I tried using unraid for hardware passthough(vmware term) via unraid to a VM to a physical GPU... There are a number of unknowns... but I have a few weeks to figure this out while I wait for parts... and figure out(fit) hard line water cooling lines... What have I gotten myself into Edited October 18, 20232 yr by mathomas3
October 18, 20232 yr Author Someone done something like this before? Are there somethings I should consider per UnRaid and Epyc CPUs?
