Hi guys,
I have created a program in VB .NET 2010 which I'm about to release commercial and non-commercial versions.
This program interacts with a HFS HTTP Server to collect and store information. What I need to do is have my PC running 24/7 so users will be able to connect to it to check for updates and such. Now this isn't a problem with my home network (Being unlimited p/m). But the computer I own is a power hungry one. So I have decided to build a another computer dedicated to running the server, something very cheap.
Can you guys, recommend specific parts for me to order? What I need to find is a
* A CPU - at least single core with around 1.8-2.0ghz
* Ram - 256mb minimum
* Motherboard - with integrated card if you find one
* A HDD - 10gb minimum
* ATX pc tower - with a low watt rating
* WIFI card - This computer will be left in my garage, so I need it to pick up my modem in my living room.
I am not willing to spend over $100 AUD. This computer will be left on 24/7 so it should be energy efficient.
The rest of the parts (CRT Monitor, keyboard, mouse and OS) I already own, so don't worry about that
Help would be greatly appreciated,
Allen.P
