48 core, 1024 gb ram, opteron 6172 g34 build

[DerpyX3]

Ello im building a g34 opteron 6172 12 core cpu base build, i have the d16 mobo and 1080 and 980 graphics cards. 

I am in need of any experence builders of the models, i am building this to use for simulations for aerospace quantum physics and thermal dynamics simulations mainly, a few planetary here and there. But i want to build this to test and see if i can have a rig that can render 3 to 10 day simulations for a good price. I am open to all hints and tips, its my first opteron build so i listen carefully to all information big and small. if this works well i wish to have a handful of rig running portions of a simulation at once ( separated subjected physics simulation) and just need to figure out exactly what i need to mod in order to get it running and producing a full rendered simulation

 

 

I would love to here what worked and especially what didnt work for you, 

im also building a OEM Dell PowerEdge C6145,SuperMicro H8QGI-F and Dell PE 6950 Mother boards to have multiple variables for if one fails

I'm not really sure what information in particular you're looking for but I can say the scale of this blows my 16 core 32 thread dual Xeon server with 128GB of ram out of the water.

 

Are you looking for hardware recommendations? Hardware compatibility? System assembly? Configuring the software?

This is typically the post a kid would make when he discovered something cool.

 

But those parts at this point in time are pointless. The amount spent for these old parts is just a waste.

yea that sounds about right on what he wants, which is as many good cores (so maybe not oprteron as old intel is better than old AMD) as possible as much ram, the 1080 is good, probably. and other general help on the system

you say that with the kid and you are right, but normally the kid goes "I have ran into some money and want to get this" instead of "I need to simulate complected shit for uni, which need a lot of power" so their probably not a kid

total waste. had to wait for amd 32 - 64 thread cpus to come out. i think the will cost about 3000-3200

that depends on the budget on what he's got, as he might be able to afford that, at the same time his budget might be half that and need to get older hardware to do this, which raises the question of budget what is it?

Well those pictures are from google so..
