Hello Genodians
I would like to build a computer to run sculpt on.
I have some parts that at the moment only collect dust. I would like to build a computer to run sculpt on from these and some that I will buy new (CPU / Mainboard).
From the unofficial Genode HCL (http://usr.sysret.de/jws/genode/hcl.html) I would guess a 10th generation Intel with integrated graphics would be a good a save starting ground. As the mainboard I would use a ASUS MB PRO Q570M-C which is 11th generation ready. The reason for this MB is that the Q570 chipset supports AMT which would allow me to debug problems via Ethernet.
Do you think that a system built with these components would run sculpt well or are there some pitfalls that I have overlooked?
Best regards, Pirmin

Briefly skimming the components I don't see any immediate pitfalls.
(With regard to AMT, on a desktop system using a PCIe serial card or - if available - an onboard COM header works equally well in case you are mainly interested in serial output. That broadens the choices somewhat.)

I've personally had success with a cheap PCI serial card, so I really wouldn't worry about AMT.

Hello Josef
Many thanks for your quick response.

The idea of using a serial card is a great relief, because then I can choose a mainboard which supports two graphics cards.
While browsing the available mainboards I realized that they also support 11th generation. Is there a chance that I could use an 11th generation CPU, they are currently a tiny bit cheaper.

Our limited experience with i7-1185G7 CPUs is quite good and Sculpt 22.04 runs on it out of the box including VirtualBox 6.
