I have a tower server with an AMD Athlon 1212 CPU and 8G of ECC RAM to give away. The above URL has the relative performance of the CPU (it beats the i3 and Core 2 Duo systems but doesn't compete with the quad core CPUs). The CPU lacks the feature needed for KVM, if you run QEMU it will be in software emulation mode which is really slow. It used to be a Xen server. It has PCIe*8 slots so you can't install a decent video card without using a saw. All RAM slots are full and I think it uses unbuffered DIMMs so expanding the RAM probably costs more than it's worth. If you need a 64bit dual-core server with 8G of RAM then this will probably work quite well. It can work as a desktop system (and did so well for a few years), but the inbuilt graphics is slow. It makes little noise if you have a SSD and the CPU is mostly idle. I can bring it to a LUV meeting. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/ _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] https://lists.luv.asn.au/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/luv-main
