Hi Peter,
A new 8-way Opteron system supporting 64GB of system RAM was recently released by HPC Systems:
http://www.hpcsystems.com/products/svr_a5880hs.html
Because the memory controller resides on the CPU in Opteron systems, all 8 CPUs must be populated, but this can be achieved with the slowest/cheapest model, the Opteron 840 (1.4 GHz). The A5880HS is still probably far cheaper than anything from HP or IBM with similar amounts of RAM that could run Windows, and Dell just isn't in the ballpark (and probably won't be for the foreseeable future).

What are the best options for large amounts of fast memory for Windows-based systems?
I'm looking for price & performance (access time) for:
1) Cached RAID 2) RAM disks 3) Internal RAM (using 64 bit architecture?) 4) other
Thanks for any info.
