Dear colleagues,

I am seeking advice on building a cryo-EM workstation for data processing
using RELION. Here is a draft configuration:

   - 1x Intel Xeon W Series CPU, 12 cores, 3.20 GHz;
   - 8x32GB RAM;
   - 1TB M2 drive for OS, 3.84TB U.2 NVMe drive for scratch disk;
   - 3x20TB Hard Drive (3.5" Internal - SATA/600 - 7200rpm);
   - 2x Nvidia RTX A4500.

Would 2x A4500 be sufficient for RELION jobs? And which one would be better
between 4070 (12GB memory, faster clock speed) and A4500 (20GB, slower
clock speed)? Any other advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Best,
Alicia
