So I have 1500 to spend on a rig... I priced out a dual xeon with these specs
2 Western Digital Caviar Special Edition WD800JB 80GB ATA/100 7200RPM Hard Drive w/8MB Buffer
$63.00
2 Corsair 512MB DDR266 PC2100 CAS2.5 ECC Registered Double Data Rate Memory Retai
$120.00
2 Intel® Xeon TM Processor 2.4GHz 533MHz 604pin .13u 512KB Retail
$225.00
Tyan Tiger i7505 S2668 Intel E7505 Dual Xeon DDR ATX Server Board w/Audio, LAN Retail
$218.95
Logitech Cordless MX Duo Elite Keyboard w/MX700 Optical Mouse Combo Retail
$54.99
Enermax EG651P-VE 24Pin 550W Power Supply for P4 & AMD K7 Retail
$138.99
Chaintech SA5900X GeForce FX5900 XT AGP 8X 128MB DDR Video Card w/TV-Out & DVI
$199.99

Samsung TS-H492A/WBGH DVD 16x + CDRW 52x32x52 Combo Drive w/Nero & PowerDVD Software (Black)

My question is this a good set up? Or should I look into a faster prescott.
Thanks for ALL suggestions
