Yeah, I remember looking into getting a refurbished cloud server instead of a brand new desktop a decade ago or so. They weren't free, but you'd still get a machine with 40 cores and 120gb of RAM for only $400. Pre-Ryzen, it was a very attractive offer. I never ended up buying one, because it'd consume way more power than made sense, and they're kinda shitty for gaming/workstation use due to low single-core performance and NUMA issues. |
