Hello there!
So I was plannig to get an Threadripper 1920X for an Asrock Gaming Phantom 6. For that CPU I would like to know if I can run the setup USING DUAL CHANNEL RAM. Is it possible to run everything using 16 GB RAM at Dual Channel?? So this is my main question.
This may sound weird, but there is actually a reason for it. It is because I want to mount a server (I am not interested AT ALL at Gaming), so those cores are well appreciated for such great prize, in comparison to other Intel alternatives. Due to budget limitations in first place (maybe for a couple of weeks up to a month maybe) I would like just the minimal components to run&gun, so I already have a pair of 8GB ram ddr4 to use, then I plan to upgrade those 16 gigs to 32 gigs (dual CHANNEL as well) with ECC this time, and later, upgrade to 64 gigs of RAM (by adding new two ram slots to the last 32gigs pair) and I am at the end with 64 gigs ram ecc quad-channel.
For similar reasons, I wonder if a NVME M.2 slot is compatible with a M2 SSD sata? My big concern if it would work or not, I don't care about performance lose, as I stated before about RAM.
(ADDITIONAL: MORE INFO ABOUT THE SERVER)
This server would mainly do cloud computing and Apps&Webhosting. So multitasking here is required as well as a fast internet connection, so for this reason I picked up the CPU, and the Phantom 6 for its 2.5 Gbits port Lan.
For dissipating the CPU's heat I would go with the BQuiet black Rock pro, and the cooling system built in the case Cooler Master Master Box MB511.
I will go with Ubuntu Server as an OS.
I would be glad to hear any suggestions by you guys.
Thanks.
