I am going to be building a new box that will be dedicated to running only GNS3 and virtual box.
Main questions:
How much faster is ubuntu( using cinimin or even lxde desktop) at running these two programs vs on a windows machine?
My goal is to have at least a firewall, 3 or 4 routers running ospf, bgp and maybe eigrp and then 4 VM's running. How much RAM should i get and what CPU is going to be able to keep up with the machines and the network?
I stopped using virtual box 3 years ago because i could never get any of my VM's to run full screen and it was bugging me so bad. Have they fixed this? My desktop will most likely not have a GPU in it, just onboard video.
Is it possible for my laptop to do all of this? it is running win 10. it has 12gb ram and a dual core amd
thanks
