das wut i got so far, from zzf, cuz newegg has no dual opteron boards, anyways, would that be good setup?

Dont you need a server case not a gaming case?

 

[aCb]

just rent a server

 

[trance565]

lol, i dun think teh case really matters, i think it will fit, but if i need a server case ill go find one, and renting a server is lame, cuz if we get this we could rent OUR server to OTHER ppl for money

 

[aCb]

wouldnt be worth spending 5,000 to rent one server for 70$ a month.

 

[trance565]

meh, lol then ill use it as my new computer!!!!
