Hi, I am building a workstation to run OpenFOAM on Ubuntu (academic research) and would appreciate recommendations/suggestions on my proposed build. My budget is ~$4000 USD.

My proposed setup is as follows:

x1 -- AMD EPYC 7302 Processor

x8 -- 16GB DDR4-3200 RAM

x1 -- AMD Radeon Graphics Board

x1 -- Supermicro MBD-H11DSI-B Motherboard

x4 -- Fan

x1 -- CPU Cooler

x1 -- Tower

x1 -- 750W Power Supply

misc. -- internal SSDs, wireless setup.

I ultimately plan to add a second CPU (and CPU Cooler, RAM) to the system, but am starting with just the one for now.

Is this an appropriate/compatible build? I am also looking for help on how to integrate a wireless setup that will run on Linux.

Thanks!
