Lots of mixed colors in here. No planning was done beforehand of course.

Threadripper Passthrough

I built this system primarily to introduce myself to virtualization with a desire to also game as well, so far it has excelled at both. The Host OS is Ubuntu MATE 18.10 with the gaming guest OS of Windows 10 Pro 1809. The MS500 and Crucial 960GB SSDs are in a software striped array for games. The host videocard is actually a WX 2100, but the option was unavailable. The top card is a Mellanox Connect-X3 10Gb SFP+ network adapter.
