So doing a tower build mostly to try and achieve something quieter than what a rack server would offer, didn't think about CPU coolers until everything arrived so went to local Best buy, kinda digging the dual water cooler aesthetic. Waiting on RAM to arrive still but also have a question.
Currently I have the CPU header split for the radiator fan and pump, is that ok or should I split the system fans with the pump. I guess I could also get a molex pump controller but don't think I need one.
I just lurk here for the tech pics, please forgive me: Why does that computer have two CPUs?
Most likely for virtualization. Though in this configuration, it would be a challenge to provide the storage and ram to support more than say, 16 cores, or a standard single cpu build.
Why? NVMe drives produce more throughput and IOPS than whole SANs 7-8 years ago.
The first SAN I ever worked with was about 20 years ago
Cost close to a million dollars and was the size of two refrigerators
Just bought an NVME off of Amazon for $21 that's faster :O
