Can someone advise which of these is more powerful? And by how much?
(I checked out both their Passmark scores, but am interested to hear from the experts in this forum)
Option 1:
HP ProLiant DL380p Gen8
2 x Xeon e5-2890v2
192GB ECC RAM
Option 2 (desktop variant):
Intel i7-8700K
16GB RAM
I have both machines at home and is trying to decide which of these I should use as my main unRAID server and run the following apps:
- NAS
- Blue Iris
- Pi-Hole
- Plex Media Server
- Emby Media Server
- Deluge VPN
- Nextcloud
Would you go with option 1 or 2, and why?
My biggest beef with the DL380p is the noise and high power consumption. But if the DL380p is significantly faster than the i7-8700K, I'll put up with it. But if it's only a 5-10% improvement, I may just decide to go with the i7-8700K.
Your thoughts?
