I would like to repeat the previous question that I am most interested in now: Should more attention be given to selecting a particular (specific) processor and motherboard, or is it a question of architecture as such? And ram. When I first built my new Xeon server I ordered ECC memory from Apacer but the lead time was over 3 weeks. So, I bought a cheap Crucial module so I could get the server up and running and ready for the Apacer. The Crucial memory I got was non-ECC and buffered. The server sounded pretty good initially but when I put the Apacer memory in it went to a whole new level. Night and day. I am now convinced how much of a difference the memory can make.
