[Wien] budget CPU and Linux system for precompiled binaries

[pluto]

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
