For the solid state drive (SSD), from among the different types [1], I
do recommend trying to get the M.2 PCIe NVMe [2,3] if it fits within
your computer configuration and budget.

Dear All,
I am considering to build a simple Linux PC for WIEN2k, price range
between ca. 500-2000 EUR. It would be used to run band-structure
calculations.
I will run precompiled WIEN2k executables on this. Is there a
preferred CPU and Linux system that would ensure good compatibility?
I suppose this question is asked quite a lot, but hardware changes
quickly. Any comments on a particular CPU/mainboard configuration, RAM
amount, type of SSD etc. would be appreciated.
Best,
Lukasz
