Home server advice

[Desty]

I'm trying to sort out components for a home server which will probably mainly be used for media serving and squeezebox.

Don't know whether to go for an atom 330 or an AMD Athlon II X2 240e. Trying to keep power consumption down to a minimum.

Was looking at this for the atom board Asus AT3N7A-I

Or this for the Athlon Gigabyte GA-MA74GM-S2H AMD 740G

Thanks

atom 330 should be capable of what ur doing, but the amd is future proof.

i would go atom myself.
