So, now I am finally getting back to building PCs. I have not built my own PC in 8+ years. I have since been using laptops with no need for serious HP at home. We with the trading development, necessary backtesting, and fast order execution, a new PC is in order. I need one that if optimized for running Windows based VMs. Here's my current plan:
- Corsair Obsidian Series 650D (CC650DW-1) Black Aluminum / Steel ATX Mid Tower Case
- GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 AM3+ AMD 990FX + SB950 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard
- GIGABYTE GV-N760OC-4GD REV2.0 GeForce GTX 760 4GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 HDCP Ready Video Card
- CORSAIR CSM Series CS750M 750W ATX12V v2.4 and EPS 2.92 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Modular Active PFC Power Supply
- AMD FX-8350 Black Edition Vishera 4.0GHz (4.2GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ 125W 8-Core Desktop Processor FD8350FRHKBOX
- CORSAIR Hydro Series H100i Extreme Performance Water/Liquid CPU Cooler. 240mm
- SAMSUNG 840 Pro Series MZ-7PD256BW 2.5" 256GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
- G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900) Desktop Memory Model F3-1866C9Q-32GXM
- (3) SAMSUNG S24C750P Glossy Black 24" 5ms (GTG) HDMI Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor
I have not pulled the trigger just yet. Still analyzing. I here that the more cores the better when it comes to VM performance.
Let me know your thoughts.
