Dear CCL,
While I do not do computing anymore, my son needs to put together a CentOS server
for an application (not a quantum chemistry, though) that will need a lot of memory (512 GB)
and the fastest possible single-threaded performance (Ryzen or XEON ?). I will be grateful for
any suggestions on the best motherboard and CPU combo + memory for such computations.
He can put it together from parts himself, but if you know about some companies that sell
such specialized computers, I will be also thankful. You can send the answers to me
(jkl*wowway.biz) and I will summarize the answers.
