Hello,
I would like to know if a dual socket with two Intel Xeon E5-2630 v2 2.60Ghz or two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v2 2.10Ghz would be able to run 60+ Virtual Machines simultaneously. In all the other builds the CPU is maxed first so probably the number of cores is the most important factor here. Im trying to find the most cost-efficient build, any suggestion is welcome.
This VMs will have Win7 installed and will be playing a game. Each VM needs 1 GB RAM, 3-4 GB of disk space and you need 1GB GPU per 15 VMs.
Other tested setups:
This runs 18 VMs:
8350 FX AMD
32GB RAM
650 GTX 2GB
SSD 250 Samsung evo
This runs 30-36 VMs:
i7-4930k
64GB RAM (45 is enough)
SabertoothX79
SSD 250 Samsung evo
GTX 660 3GB
This runs 48 VMs:
Xeon e5-2689
Asus Z9PA-U8
64 GB DDR3 ECC Kingston
Seagate Pro 250GB
HD 7950
Seagate gold 750 W
The game installed in the VMs minimum requirements:
CPU Speed: 2 GHz processor
RAM: 1 GB RAM (Windows Vista and 7 users will want 2 GB of RAM or more)
OS: Windows XP SP2, Windows Vista SP1, or Windows 7
Video Card: DirectX 9.0 capable video card support Shader 2.0
Free Disk Space: 8 GB
Thanks.
