Posted January 25, 2018 I have a server with 4 Xeon X7560 CPUs, a GTX 1060 and 1TB of 1333MHz DDR3. I was wondering if this setup would be supported Windows 10, I know I will have to go down to 128GB of RAM, as Windows 10 can't support higher, but will it support my CPUs? If not I also have a different server with 2 Xeon X5670 CPUs, will that work instead? I am planning on running multiple virtual machines, maybe 3-4 max. If Windows doesn't support it, Can I run 3 Windows 10 virtual Machines through Linux? Thanks! That's all!

Doesn't look like 4 is doable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted January 25, 2018 If I'm not mistaken W10 only supports two physical CPUs, so for all 4 CPUs to actually work you'd need to step up to Windows Server, and a max of 256 cores are supported in 64-bit installs (not that you'd want to use a 32-bit install anyways).

Posted January 25, 2018 You will need a server OS to support more than 4 physical cpus.

Does windows Server support normal windows apps or virtual machines? It would be nice to run something like Cinebench just to see what happens :-) CPU: Ryzen 7 2700X GPU: Radeon Vega 56 Motherboard: MSI B350 Tomahawk RAM: 24GB DDR4 Boot Drive: 240GB SSD Mass Storage: 1TB WD Blue Case: Enermax Ostrog PSU: 550W 80+ Bronze Monitors: 24" 2048x1152 and 18.5" 1600x900 Keyboard: Razer Ornata Chroma Mouse: MSI Interceptor DS B1Microphone: Blue Snowball Speakers: Logitech Wired Stereo Speakers Disk Drive: Blu-ray/DVD Combo Drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it supports Windows Store or not (been a little bit since I've used Server 2016), but I doubt you'd want to run something from the Store on a machine with that much oompfh.

Posted January 26, 2018 Yes cinebench supports windows server. It will also supports VMs through virtualbox, vmware or hyper-v. From there you can install any OS on top of windows. Basically you can install any programs. If not there must be some workaround. Windows server prioritize background task more. So its more suitable to serve VM's.
