Hey, folks,
I'm working on finding some new compute nodes. What I'm looking for is a 64 core box, with room enough for a lot of RAM. I can get it from Dell, or HP (bleah! a 4U box), but I need to have three quotes, y'know. We've gotten a lot from Penguin in the past, but they're all Supermicro, and we've had a *lot* of problems with the 64 core boxes, so I'm looking for another vendor.
Whats wrong with the SuperMicro 64 core boxes? I have never seen any problems with them. I assume you mean AMD, in which case the IPMI sucks but other than that.....
Dell PowerEdge R815's are pretty ok.
Cheers,
Andrew
