Re: New Artix hardware Reply #1 – 28 April 2025, 19:16:51 Our previous main build server ran Artix in Supermicro EPYC hardware. Given that the company is a respectable manufacturer - unlike HP - and strong player in the server market I'd say with full confidence it won't just run Linux, it'll fly it. Quote Selected 1 Likes

Re: New Artix hardware Reply #4 – 29 April 2025, 08:04:25 That gives me pause. I have a small two room apartment and half of one is already like a server room. Fan noise can be hard and the AMD EPYC™ 7443P Processor 24-Core 2.85GHz 128MB Cache (200W) is a whopping 200W! with x 900W Gold Level (90%) power supply on the chassis Quote Selected
Re: New Artix hardware Reply #5 – 29 April 2025, 19:10:29 In all fairness to the comparison, some server blades have dozens of fans and sound like airplanes taking off, not to mention those fans draw significant amounts of power. The mid-tower in question is in a completely different category in both noise generation and power consumption. 200W for 24 cores at full load or around 250W total system consumption is pretty low, all things considered.
