I recently acquired a Dell Poweredge 1900 and am looking to upgrade it. I was wondering what the maximum CPU and RAM specifications are currently on the market and perhaps any other possible upgrade.
I am running Ubuntu server, and here is the output of meminfo and cpuinfo, not sure if that helps any:
