    I am completely aware of that it is not only CPU but whole system - and that is what was bothering me, as I pay for electricity for whole system as well What I did, is that I measured the same rig with J1900Q Celeron Integrated Motherboard and it did draw around 35 Watts in idle, and up to 45 in stress test. Then I managed to install OMV (Debian 10) on the Original Rig (550+R3100), then I set power limit on CPU to 45W (AMD power settings in bios), and underclocked it to 3000Mhz. Then I unplugged that old godforsaken 660 Ti hoping it would post without GPU, and it did, and booted as well. Current power draw is around 40W in idle and 50-55W when stress testing. The thing is that I hope, that just setting frequency in BIOS is fine. Everything else is on auto. Should i adjust some other parameters? Systems seems stable for now.

    I think, the old GPU is causing a lot of the power draw (measured in the power socket). So I am going to install OS, set these power caps (hopefully I will be able to find them in BIOS), and unplug the GPU. I will see then.

    I am measuring the whole rig as I don't currently have an OS installed, i just plugged that in and POST-ed.

    Hello guys, This week I bought new PC which i intend to use for home NAS and stream server. The specs are: MB: ASROCK B550M Pro4 CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 3100 RAM: 2x HyperX 8GB DDR4 3200 MHz CL16 FURY (HX432C16FB3) System Disk: Patriot Burst SSD 480 GB (PBU480GS25SSDR) ZFS Cache: HP EX900 250 GB (2YY43AA#ABB) ZFS Raidz1: 4x Seagate IronWolf 6TB (ST6000VN001 ) GPU (only for system installtion): Old Asus GTX 660Ti PSU: OCZ ZS Series 650W, 80 PLUS Bronze I want to install an OpenMediaVault with ZFS Storage pool and Plex and Nextcloud Servers (probably also few accompanying VMs and Containers). The problem is, that when I am not using it, I want it to draw as little power as possible. Currently when idling it at around 85W, which is quite a lot in my opinion. So the question is. What should be the proper BIOS settings or some other (non-BIOS) options to decrease power consuption? Thank you :)

    I have additional question regarding NVMe Does the mentioned motherboard support NVMe SSD boot out of the box? I don't have any experience with these drives as boot devices yet. How should I proceed if there are any steps required. The OS will be Debian based.

    Hello NelizMastr, that is exactly what i needed to know, but could spell out directly So I will give it some 710 so it can boot properly.

    Guys, The GPU wont be needed for VM-s as we will run only IT Management software which doesnt have any GUI other than WEB UI. The GPU will be needed only for installation. So my original question was, if it was OK to remove GPU after I install the Virtual ENV (Proxmox, OpenStack, or other).

    Thanks so far guys. Also I am curious about "dust management" as this machine will be probably locked in server room, where we wont have access anytime we want. Is the case good enough? Arent there any better with better filtering and airflow?

    I will be running windows and linux guests. The server will be headless, but for the installation I will probably need external GPU, but that shouldnt be a problem, or? Regarding cooling, what does it mean that liquid cooler will be less realiable? could it leak? Will this Cooler be sufficient for the 2970WX if we get a budget for it? Regarding the storage, there will be probably high IO load on those drives, that is why we would like to avoid SATA disks for some specific VMs. Which Crucial disks do you recommend then? the MX 500 seems to be way slower according specs

    Hello experts. We would like to build up a training/test server where a virtual hosting software would be running. Most probably something KVM based like Proxmox or Openstack. We are planing to run there up to 20-30 virtual machines at a time with various performance requirements ranging from single core up to 6-cores setups. So, we have a budget of 3000€ and this is my first rig (All links are from website https://www.alza.sk/EN/ as we probably will need to order from them due to contractual reasons): MB: GIGABYTE X399 AORUS PRO RAM: HyperX 128 GB KIT 3000 MHz DDR4 CPU: Procesor AMD RYZEN Threadripper 2950X CPU Cooler: Enermax LiqTech TR4 II 360 RGB Storage: 2xSSD: ADATA XPG SX8200 Pro SSD 512 GB 1xHDD: Seagate Exos 7E8 4 TB PSU: EVGA 750 GQ Power Supply Case: Fractal Design Define S Window What do you say? Thanks
