Hey guys I am looking at a crazy system to build right now and was wondering what all this system would be good at? 

 

Cpu: 4 16 core opteron CPU's (I cant find any specific ones..)

Ram: Crucial Ballistix Tactical 8GB x32

Mobo: Supermicro H8QGi-LN4F

Gpu: Radeon HD 7850 (It is what I had laying around)

 

Edit: What I plan on using this for is audio production and maybe light gaming..

Why do you want to build it if you dont know for what to use it for? ... makes no sense.. This is totaly useless for anything but servers.

 

I know what I want to use it for.. I was just wondering if anybody had any ideas that I haven't thought of.

The guy is just asking for parts or and idea of what he should use in the build. Don't try and fight him on why he is doing it cause that is not what he is asking for, he is asking for a overkill system for uses he has not specified nore does he really need to. 

A shadowy flight into the dangerous world of a man who does not exist.

Games don't need more then 4 cores, so how ever many cores you have would suck bad. Look at Linus'  rendering machine that thing was worse then a 4790K based system in games

Rendering with that many cores would be awesome. Gaming it would suck at hardore.

 

Yeah it would be great at rendering. But wouldn't it be ok at gaming if I OC'ed this system to 3 GHz? I have seen people do that to these Cpus..

It is also not meant for gaming. I put that in the OP if you would have read that instead of just commenting on this negatively! Plus it is also MY money I am spending so I can do whatever I want with it.

this is literally what you would use for a transcoding, rendering and encoding server PC if you were, say, linus. it will not game well no matter WHAT GPU you put on it

 

Again I AM NOT GOING TO USE THIS FOR GAMING!!!!!!! MAYBE LIGHT GAMING LIKE CSGO OR SOMETHING SUPER LIGHT! I HAVE A GAMING PC FOR A REASON! THIS WILL PROBABLY BE A SERVER OF SOME SORT!
