Hi there,

I'm thinking about upgrading my desktop workstation and I would like to know which options do I have. There are two things that I would like to upgrade:

  1. CPU - at the moment there is Intel Xeon Ep-1560 v4@3.60 Ghz - the goal is to install the CPU with 20 or 22 cores. Which option do you recommend Intel Xeon E5-2698 V4 or Intel Xeon E5-2696 V4?
  2. Video card - at the moment there is Nvidia P4000 installed - is Nvidia P5000 compatible?

In case of upgrading both option, do I have to buy more powerful PSU? At the moment there is 700W PSU installed.

Thank you so much!

P.S. if that is useful info, there is also 128GB RAM@2400 Mhz installed
