The new EPCY 9004 CPU's look like a great option for a low(ish) power build. (alien.top)

I'm running 2 Proxmox nodes in an HA Cluster with dual E5-2697A V4's and while it works great it's making my office rather warm.

The 9124 isn't cheap, however, it has a 200W TDP and has a higher benchmark with just 1 of them compared to my dual Xeon setup. It's $1150 though which is kind of sucky, however, it should kick out much less heat I'd think?

Is anyone using this CPU or the other 2 I listed below? They are $1600-$2000 though.

Supermicro H13SSL-N Motherboard - https://www.supermicro.com/en/products/motherboard/h13ssl-n

AMD EPYC 9124 - https://www.amd.com/en/products/cpu/amd-epyc-9124

AMD EPCY 9254 - https://www.amd.com/en/products/cpu/amd-epyc-9254

ETA: The Supermicro H13SSL-NT is the same as the H13SSL-N except that it has 10Gbe, however, it's $120 more expensive. I don't need it as I use SFP+ with fiber everywhere at the moment.

actually i’d be looking at 8004 which should hit retail very soon. Should be even more efficient. Either way, both will outperform any v4 system. Don’t worry too much about the 200W, i’m sure you idle at 100W each node now. Not only does Epyc idle much lower, i doubt you’ll be hitting 100% cpu usage. No experience with 9004 yet, but i love 7003.
