At home 32 to 64GiB is plenty. For the data center I generally order 384GiB now. It varies depending on use case.
So what I am hearing is that I need to start buying server and not desktop motherboards.
128GB isn’t that much when running multiple VMs with PCIe passthrough and docker apps in the background, but its all my little asus x399 board can handle… or any x399 board it seems.
I rarely run more than one VM at home at a time. Hosting multiple VMs what the big iron is for.
Do you have a favorite server brand or motherboard you like to use in the data center?
