Hi i am looking to build a small server for myself and can get hold of 2 of these cpu's with hsf and 1Gb (2x512ecc) for a very cheap price.
My question is are they any good as apart from the normal files hosting etc i may call on it to be a game server from time to time (aoe 2 & 3, BF2). For this reason i shall get a board that will let me use faster cpu's when the prices come down and a reasonable gfx card.
So i would appreciate anyones opinion who has used these in this sort of enviroment and also some idea's for a good cheap board for them.
Cheers
