Hi,

There once was a rule for Hewlett Packard Germany that every part
costs 5000 Mark.

Actually i am in good hope for my next workstation for about 1600 EUR:
  Xeon, 4+ GHz, 4 core, 32 GB DDR4-2666 ECC,
  500 GB NVMe x4, 4 TB HDD CMR, Blu-ray burner,
  low noise Midi-Tower, extra silent 550W power supply
(3 percent points VAT reduction because of the plague times we are in !)


I lack of ideas for employing more than 4 cores with 8 threads.
But if i had bursting money bags, highly parallel work to do,
and a free room in the basement, i'd consider a double processor
with 192 cores and 768 Threads:

Nevertheless, i am already duely impressed by the single Threadripper
with 64 cores (for about 3900 EUR over here).


Have a nice day :)

Thomas
