665980 - Need a build/benchmark machine for Bill McCloskey

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Infrastructure & Operations Graveyard :: Servicedesk, task)

Description

[Bill McCloskey [inactive unless it's an emergency] (:billm)]

I would like to have a fast desktop machine for builds and benchmarking. Ideally it would have:

- i7 with a lot of cores and big caches
- 16GB of RAM or more
- SSD with >= 128GB

I don't really care about the graphics card, as long as it works in Linux. I'll probably be running it headless most of the time.

Thanks.

Comment 1

[Bill McCloskey [inactive unless it's an emergency] (:billm)]

Any progress on this?

Comment 2

[David Mandelin [:dmandelin]]

Approved, in case anyone's waiting for that.

Comment 3

[Damon Sicore (:damons)]

What's the status of this?  Total radio silence here after three weeks.  It's frustrating.

Comment 4

[Guillermo Huerta [Disabled MoCo account]]

Sorry, this got bounced to me when I was out of the office.  Here is the spec of the machines we have been ordering for build.  I've ordered one for you.  I'll enter an update when I have shipping info.  Let me know if you want something different.

Looks great. Thanks!

Comment 6

[matthew zeier [:mrz]]

Sorry guys, looks like we dropped the ball on this.  I don't see a quote number so I've asked DELL to regenerate a quote based off your requirements.  I'll pass that to you and expedite the order.

Attachment: T7500

Comment 9

[matthew zeier [:mrz]]

Take a look at the two attached quotes and let me know which to go forward with.

Comment 10

[Bill McCloskey [inactive unless it's an emergency] (:billm)]

I guess I would prefer the nicer one (the T7500).

Comment 11

[Bill McCloskey [inactive unless it's an emergency] (:billm)]

In case my previous comment sounded too undecided, I resolutely choose the T7500.
