ok, well (boring backstory) after a night of conversing down the local, a friends better half said that he has a dual xeon server that he will sell me for £30, it has 8gb ddr2 ram and said it has no psu, its just the board, ram and cpus.
now because i do 3d VFX compositing work, the idea of rendering out on a server is more appealing than just using my crap desktop (low budget steambox basically) and would save a heck of a lot of time, how ever, ive made general gaming rigs, but have not a single clue as to servers,
so any help you can give me will be welcome, i need it to say the least.
(help like what i need to get to get it running basicially)
