  • I’m assuming you’re talking about version 1 of the 2620.

    Nope, V2.

    Although the xeon is the weaker processor, if you’re planning on having those containers active together the larger thread count will potentially be more beneficial than the faster i7.

    This is what I thought, before @poVoq@slrpnk.net pointed me to the quicksync of the i7 (I will have a Jellyfin container).

  • Also if you do any sort of media processing the 6700k has a gpu and quicksync built in that can speed these things up significantly.

    This is a good point that probably will make the decision lean towards the i7, thanks!

  • So what was the question? It sounds like you already decided.

    Why? No, I haven't decided.

    The i7-6700k is faster but it has less cores. The E5-2620 has more cores but the clock speed and memory are much slower.

    So for a lot of containers that each do few things, it would be better to have more cores, correct?

  • I’m assuming the xeon comes with ECC ram?

    Yes, it does.

    Since you’re just looking to make a router the xeon would be my tentative choice.

    No no, it willwork ALSO as router, but it will have about 15/20 Dockers containers.
    It's not that loud, but it will be placed in a dedicated small room under the roof.

  • Yoy're right, I haven't thought about that, and even now...I don't know what to write 🙈 3 servers are behind Cloudflare tunnel, one is reachable only via VPN. The problem happens with all of them. What kind of other information could be helpful to you? Thanks!
