A small update on this case.
I have bought a used Xeon Silver 4112 (4c/8t) processor which actually arrived a few days ago.
No doubt I could have gotten more cores for the same money, but I still tried to minimize the "overkill" even on a thought level.
A Supermicro X11SPL-F is currently being planned as the motherboard.
As far as I understand, the processor only supports a memory speed of 2400 MHz, and this speed was not found in Supermicro's tested memory list.
Supermicro tested memory list:
DDR4 1.2V-2666 -> MEM-DR432LC-ER26
DDR4 1.2V-2933 -> MEM-DR432LC-ER29
DDR4 1.2V-3200 -> MEM-DR432LC-ER32
I assume that the suitable 2400MHz version would be MEM-DR432LC-ER24?
Supermicro's product page lists the memory as the "original" model number M393A4K40CB1-CRC, which is Samsung memory.
These 32GB memory sticks are available on EU Ebay used for ~40€/pc.
The motherboard has 8 memory slots, but according to the manual, it is recommended to use all 8 slots only when necessary.
I have understood that the processor has a 6-channel memory, so 6 RAM sticks are probably recommended in this case?
I would like to receive confirmation of the memory selection before I place the order. Of course, I also accept other recommendations!
What are your thoughts on the Seasonic 650W PRIME PX-650 or TX-650 as a power supply?
