Server update

[Guest]

Hi everyone.

I decide to upgrade my server. Mostly i will use it as VM server and run with 2 to 3 vitual server.
Does anyone can give me so suggest which CPU is good for it. And my budget is 500 for cpu + motherboard.

Thanks
Kevin

That budget will fetch you a 6 core AMD 1090T along with a Gigabyte 890FX-UD5 motherboard which together form an excellent setup for use as a VM server.. However, other factors are evident.. The motherboard user DDR3 RAM and has no onboard video.. So you need to possess those both first or have a separate budget ready for that.. Also, you'd want 8 GB of minimum RAM and a fast and roomy hard drive (no SSD required though)..

Hi newcomer and welcome to the Tom's hardware forum.

Since u don't need the rig as a gaming rig I think that the 1055T is a very solid option with a M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3.
