Hyper-V Server 2019 - hardware compatibility?
Hi.
I'm buying a new PC for Hyper-V Server 2019, running a couple of Windows 10 VM's. I would like to buy a new computer to last at least some years. I'm reading some posts that people have some issues with drivers for NIC interfaces, so I guess having the latest technology might not be a wise solution.
Just to be sure. I'm not talking about Windows Server 2019 running Hyper V, but standalone Hyper-V Server 2019. That is OS for running VM's. Only command-line and Power Shell.
Some users said they had to install AMD Chipset drivers, but I don't know if that's possible on Hyper-V Server 2019 using command-line/PowerShell?
Can you please advise me which CPU and Motherboard chipset to buy for best performance and as few compatibility issues as possible?
CPU:
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8 Cores / 16 Threads /105W - newer
AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12 Cores / 24 Threads /105W - older but more cores
Motherboard chipset:
AMD X570 - latest
AMD B550
If there's anything else that would present compatibility issues please advise.
Thank you very much!
