Benchmark your computer @4K with Handbrake 1.1 and H265! NOW WITH ZEN3!

[Micrornd]

even if it does, you won't be able to afford Server 2016 licence...

Why would you bother?
Windows 10 Pro supports 2 cpus and up to 256 cores, 2tb ram
Windows 10 Pro for Workstations supports 4 cpus, 256 cores and up to 6tb ram
And those are real cores, hyper-threads are twice that amount.

Cuz I need a server to replace my 2012 datacenter eventually?

Server 2019 essentials is $501. If I really needed it, I could afford it, as I already have $4k in that box with 64 cores. But it is doing what I need right now, and I don't want to spend days playing with this software just to prove a point. I think the 3960x proved it. My 64 cores are about the same as the 32 of the 3970x.

Yeah, I used to think that way, way back when.
Then you need to ask yourself, how could one individual actually honestly need a datacenter server OS or even a server OS?

If you have an EPYC system with 64 to 128 cores that only supports server OS's ?

Like me ?

@Hulk

Nice chart! but the 1700 (1700x/1800x) is an 8 core 16 thread CPU. The 1600 (1600x) is the 6 core 12 thread CPU in the 1xxx family.

Then you use Windows 10 Pro for Workstations (or Windows 10 Enterprise, if you're a sadist )
Both have been available since at least 11/2017 and support up to 4 cpus of Xeon or AMD flavor (including EPYC)
Up to 256 (real) cores and up to 6tb ram
I sincerely doubt your system is outside those specs, right

Microsoft announces Windows 10 Pro for Workstations | Microsoft 365 Blog

Windows 10 Pro for Workstations is a high-end edition of Windows 10 Pro, comes with unique support for server grade PC hardware and is designed to meet demanding needs of mission critical and compute intensive workloads.

I have a datacenter licence because it allowed me to spawn a lot of vm server 2012? Otherwise I would have to licence some other version of windows on top of the datacenter licence.

I do do work on it, not purely a toy.

I did buy 2 eaton 5kva active ups plus 4 battery modules and 2 44u racks from a production company auction :awe:. Integration is still WIP.

Eventually I should be able to turn off the furnance and just circulate air through my stack for home heating :awe:

Oh I didn't mean you personally. Was more commenting on MS licensing.

Think about 44U stack of 64 core x2 1u servers.

IF you decide to go that way, Server 2019 Essentials is available direct from Microsoft through Amazon for $370

Yep, that's where you lose me.
$1000+ for 2012 Datacenter for home use?
And then your upgrade path is 2016 or 2019 Datacenter versions. Have you priced those?
How many VMs do you really need for working at home and must they be Server?

If they don't need to be Server vm's, you could just run Hyper-V in Windows 10 and licensed Windows VMs.
(Windows 10 as with other Windows versions (other than Datacenter) has a hardcoded limit of 1024 vm's, I'm pretty sure that is enough for you)
Legit keys are cheap for Windows 7 and 8, and still allow free upgrades to Windows 10 for the foreseeable future.

I just hate to see people waste money on an OS, that could be put into hardware

Your needs are not the same as my needs. I am simulating multiple dc and sites. I actually don't need higher end server right now since like you said, I am one guy. But eventually I will need to get out of 2012 and probably will be on an off lease Epyc Rome 64 core.

it will never be your full boost clock so for all cores just over 4Ghz sounds about right.

I also notice the scores move up and down abit so best to run 3 then take the average
