Building A New Pc

Bubbles0592 · 2016-10-18 19:54:33

Good Evening all, I'm looking to build a PC strong enough to run windows 10 and VM ware for learning. Ideally I'd like a 4 core, 16GB, with an SSD. Have a budget of around 700 euro to spend. Can anyone make some suggestions I'd really appreciate it. Thanks Dean

Look at a build with an Intel Xeon E5-2670 2.6GHz Eight Core Processor; they can be gotten for less than a hundred on ebay. If you want to go mad, get two, and put on a dual CPU motherboard. I'd say you could get a refurbished server cheap enough.

Not sure how many virtual machines it'll allow you to run, but I'd say it'd handle a few.
