This shouldn’t apply to Europeans thanks to the GDPR

Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll be careful about that.

I’ve had a look at that motherboards and they seems to only have 2 PCIe slots (I’ve checked the X670E and B650) About the GPU for the VMs, it can be passed through directly to them. I haven0t tried it yet, but it seems that a lot of people do so.

Well, actually my almost 10 years old i7-6700K struggles.
The problem is probably that I keep a lot of programs open:

  • Outlook
  • about 100 Firefox tabs (with 10+ addons)
  • 10+ Chrome tabs
  • 5 Edge tabs (with Excel 365)
  • 3 or 4 Excel sheets
  • MS Teams
  • Foxit Reader
  • a coupe of VMs
  • QCAD/Photoshop/Premiere for basic editing (for these software I may need a discrete GPU)

IMHO RAID6 is the only way.

Or SnapRaid

For example on my laptop if I open Firefox it opens in full screen, if I open a terminal it resizes Firefox to half the screen and opens the terminal in the other half, a third and it splits whichever window I’m focused on vertically etc etc

Interesting!!! I’ll definitely give it a try! Thanks!

Thanks for your kind response!
I’ll definitely try using Wine and the Premiere alternatives.
About the virtual screen, I mean…screen, not desktop. I’ve added a screenshot in the OP. I know that there are tons of Linux distributions, but I don’t have much time to try them. I’ve been using Ubuntu for my servers and I’ve seen that it’s quite nice and user friendly in the desktop version, …but I’ll do some extra search!
