Re: [Xen-users] CPU reccomendation?
Hi,
I'll offer one success story, since my needs are the same as yours.
Not necessarily a "recommendation", as that would involve comparing
multiple alternatives, and I've only tried this one.
I bought an HP Pavilion d4600y desktop PC. It has a Core2 duo
processor, and a P965/G965 chip set. It runs multiple OSs just fine,
including unmodified windows under VT. It does not have any BIOS
option to turn VT on and off, which at first led me to fear that it is
permanently off. Also, another thread on this mailing list raised the
fear that the P965 chipset may not be compatible with VT. Both fears
turned out to be groundless, and VT is working great for me.

Hi, I'm new to the list. Please forgive me if this has been discussed
recently.
I'm looking at buying a server for at home and I'm looking for advice on
which cpu to base it on. I will want to put a lot of vm's on this
server, but the load will probably not be very high. Most of the VM's
will be linux, but I love to try out OS's so I may try any OS that has
an x86 port (including windows). The server I put together will probably
be 1 socket, but have a dual core chip.
I know both Intel and AMD offer virtualization instructions on their
chips, but I can't wade through the marketing fluff to figure out which
one I want. I'm also very new to xen so I don't really know what to look
for.
I've been looking at the Opteron and the Intel Core 2. From what I found
the Xeon 7000 series is the conroe core. Is that right?
