Could you please fill out the sticky for systems? Helps us to help you

I won't even try to recommend most of the server stuff...

I don't know much of that mobo (and hence don't know the reasons why you probably got it) but it's $600...

Errm.. I don't really know much a bout servers...

ahh.........

*bump*

Could you explain what you mean by "server use"? That's pretty vague. Do you mean as a gaming server? Or teamspeak/ventrilo server? Or web/database server?

And yes, filling out the sticky would be helpful.

I can't see spending that much money and not including an SSD in the build.
