We'll keep on adding more boxes to the server farm as the needs grow, but for now we're definitely happy being powered by both AMD and Intel based servers; how's that for the best of both worlds? And of course, all of the servers were assembled by AnandTech. The servers are connected on a private network courtesy of one Ethernet card in each system, as well as a 24-port 100Mbit SMC switch.
None of this would have been possible had it not been for our excellent host, Elite Internet Communications and their colocation datacenter with Stargate. If you're looking for a host, Elite is the best we have ever had and for those of you that have been long time visitors of AT you'll know that we've seen them all.
A very special thanks goes out to the following companies that have helped us construct these servers:
AMD - http://www.amd.com/
Azzo - http://www.azzo.com/
Corsair - http://www.corsairmicro.com/
Intel - http://www.intel.com/

And, of course, a huge thanks to the readers that make AnandTech what it is on a daily basis. Thanks guys.

Oh, cool. I was lucky enough to visit the above-mentioned place. https://planetofhotels.com/en/ provides a large selection of different hotels and I am always looking for something mega extraordinary. Whether it is the old style of royal times or sea manor. This is the beauty of all travels around the world. This review inspires new adventures.nathandev - Sunday, October 20, 2019 - link
I couldn't find any details above related to any places except some Database server and so on and this is not the right place to post the related to the hotels. It caught my attention that why ppl do not post on relative forums like https://travelsites.com/flyertalk-forums/ which actually relative to hotels, airlines, etc.desiry - Sunday, September 5, 2021 - link
