Hello guys,
I'm planning to build a new workstation for running vmware workstation.
At this moment I'm running workstation 9 on a HP Proliant ML150 G5, but if I want to upgrade the ram to 16GB, it will cost me about €600,- (=$800,- USD).
So I think it is better to remove the cpu and mobo and replace it for a new one with DDR3 support.
I don't want to spend more than $400,-
Here are some questions:
-Is it an option to use an AMD (like a FX-4300)
-What is a good affordable motherboard for this use?
-Are there any AMD 3+ mobo's with built-in kvm?
I hope you guys can help me with this.
