Hello I just wanted to link a Rig i will be building for my company they do Computer Aided Engineering and simulations using the software Ansys

CPU- Xeon x5690 - http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=52576 £1201.55 OR Double if we decide to get 2

Motherboard- EVGA Classified SR-2 - http://www.evga.com/products/moreInfo.asp?pn=270-WS-W555-A2&family=Motherboard%20Family&series=All%20Motherboards&sw=5 £486.66

Memory- Corsair XMS3 Classic- http://www.kikatek.com/product_info.php?products_id=172049
£686.56 FOR 4 SETS £171.64 FOR 1 SET

Hard Drives- Western Digital VelociRaptor WD3000BLFS 300GB - http://www.scan.co.uk/products/highpoint-rocketraid-2320(rr2320)-8-channel-internal-pci-e-x4-to-sata-ii-raid-controller(card) £921.06 FOR 9 £102.34 each

SATA Raid Controller- Highpoint RocketRAID 2320- http://www.scan.co.uk/products/highpoint-rocketraid-2320(rr2320)-8-channel-internal-pci-e-x4-to-sata-ii-raid-controller(card) £229.06

Case- http://www.lian-li.com/v2/en/product/product06.php?pr_index=554&cl_index=1&sc_index=25&ss_index=138&g=spec £369.98

PSU- http://www.scan.co.uk/products/1200w-silverstone-sst-st1200-g-strider-psu-silent-100-modular-80-plus-gold?utm_source=google+shopping&utm_medium=google+shopping £197.45

Graphics card-http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/product-quadro-4000-uk.html £553.68

DVD-RW +RW Drive-http://www.bcomputing.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=639&zenid=f01b02f6b6e9c237202ab34f820b1fb0 £49.84

All in all it is costing £4695.84 for one Processor OR £5897.39 for two Processors PLUS Mouse and Keyboard but dont worry about that

So what i want to know is are all these compatible and is there any better options as i had a budget of £5000 so with one processor i still have just over £300 I have not really looked into raid controllers but i just found one that supports 8 drives and is raid 0 as that is what i need


thank you for taking the time to answer and read this

What exactly are you planning to use this for? Guessing from the specs that its a CAD/CAM machine/Server? Hard to rate the build without knowing what its being built to do.

 

[jfs123]

I have said at the top Computer Aided Engineering and run Engineering Simulations using ANsys

 

[alan0n]

Yes. Yes you did, sorry still half asleep at work. Looks like a beefy build, thats way meaner than what I use for CAE/CAM and siming. That will probably run full assemblies of just about anything in a timely fashion.

I run a i7-2600 based system for CAE with a nvidia 460 and it runs even large assemblies of parts pretty decent; and with that much muscle your machine is going to run circles around mine.

Though to be honest my simulations are still kinda slow, especially when I get into poorly done stuff we get from over seas.

Ok thank you for your input so you see no flaw in my build?
