New to the community, so hello all.
Anyone have any thoughts on MB/CPU to use for a low power consumption system to be used as an always-on Linux server.
My first thought was to use an old Pentium system, but these old ones use so much power, the money I save on the system will be used on electricity.
This will be a simple file server for my home, so no requirements for redundant power supply, super-fast processor, etc. I just want to know what's a good MB/CPU combo that can use a small, efficient power supply.
Thanks.
