Ok,
So I got my hand on 2 Xeon Prestonia 2.2 Ghz Processors (check out the link) with their corresponding Heasinks and Fans, oh, and a stick of ddr 2100 memory too
now, im trying to get a motherboard so that I can put all that good stuff together (yes, i want to, its definetly a way step up over my current 1 ghz server I got running at home)
But I dont have the slightest idea of what to get...
I've checked out Tyan, and MSI and SuperMicro, and there are just way too many choices....
I really dont care for video (agp, vga, etc)...I got scsi drives, sata drives and ide drives, so thats also not an issue...
What I do know is that I DONT want WTX...I seem to like the ATX or EATX format, because apparently, it uses a regular power supply, and not those really expensive ones
can anyone suggest a few boards for me to look at...and lets try to keep them cheap too please
thanks
