Då får du ett problem. Administration. I core kan du inte få någon hyper-v administrationskonsol. Du kan administrera från din klientdator om den har Windows 8. Communityt har dock gjort ett plugin som kan göra lite basic konfiguration, bland annat starta, stoppa och visa hyper-v maskiner. Jag krånglade en del med 2008:an hemma för att få remote management, men de var enklare nu.
Så länge du inte kommer maxa all CPU med en maskin är nog två cpu:er bättre, eftersom det ger mer minnesbandbredd.
Jag tror nog det som ska likna ett serverrum kommer behöva kylning, dör inte servrarna av det så kommer operatörens utrustning det.

"Server Core Installation Option
Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008 R2, and Windows Server 2008 feature the Server Core installation option. Server Core offers a minimal environment for hosting a select set of server roles including Hyper-V. It features a smaller disk, memory profile, and attack surface. Therefore, we highly recommend that Hyper-V virtualization servers use the Server Core installation option.
A Server Core installation offers a console window only when the user is logged on, but Hyper-V exposes management features through WMI so administrators can manage it remotely. For more information, see Resources later in this guide.
Dedicated Server Role
The root partition should be dedicated to the virtualization server role. Additional server roles can adversely affect the performance of the virtualization server, especially if they consume significant CPU, memory, or I/O bandwidth. Minimizing the server roles in the root partition has additional benefits such as reducing the attack surface and the frequency of updates.
System administrators should consider carefully what software is installed in the root partition because some software can adversely affect the overall performance of the virtualization server."
