So I'm trying to build myself a budget server and will use it mostly for a small webserver, database and filesharing and stumbled upon a pretty tempting offer:
70€ (78$) for an AMD Opteron 6272 (they have 2 in stock and I'd be going for both)
So now there's a few questions for me:
The cpu is new and still sealed, from what I could gather it's a hardware store trying to get rid of some old stuff.
Of course I'm still gonna face the challenge of finding a cheap G34 dual socket motherboard.
However it would be awesome if that's a deal I shouldn't pass.

So now there's a few questions for me:
■ Does this particular CPU still hold up or should I go for something entirely different?
■ Is the price ok? I'm guessing it is.
■ What RAM should I get? Can I get any 1600mhz DDR3 RDIMM?
