I'm building a new server and would like some feedback.
It's replacing a single-core P4, Intel MBoard, 2gb of RAM, WD Raid 5, and Windows 2000 (server edition).
It needs to act as a data server for ~17 Computers. It will have 2 centralized applications installed as well. Of course no overclock. I was thinking about:
Intel Q9550 2.83 12mbL2 (couldn't find a Q9450 on newegg??)
Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3P (16GB RAM, 775, 8(3gbs SATA RAID 5), Dual 1gbs LAN)
GSkill 8GB 2(2x2) 1066 Dual Channel
Antec EA650W (like to be redundant here, had PSUs overheat before)
Seagate Barracuda x3 (500GB, 32mbCache, RAID 5, 3gbs(Storage size not concern))
Antec ATX 300 (6 Internal Drive Bays Multiple 120 Fans)
Windows server 2003.
