Hi gang,
I'm thinking of building a server, and setting it up as a NASCAR 4 server. I'm close to haveing all of the "bits and pieces" to put the actual rig together, and plan on running Win2000 Pro for an OS.
I'll have at my disposal;
P/// 700E, running at 933MHz (133FSB), I'll run it there, though it's capable of more, to keep the buses in spec.
512MB PC133
Abit SH6 mobo
Hard drive: undetermined. Any "budget" suggestions??
The only other thing this rig will do, is Fold@home, when it's not being used for NASCAR 4. This is going to be a 3rd rig (the main components are now my 2nd rig, but I've got a Shuttle AK31 v.3.1 coming, and will be getting a 1.4 T-Bird for that. That'll bump the P/// rig down to 3rd fiddle.
Are the above components capable of what I'm interested in doing?? I want to run an IDE HDD, so I know 7200RPM is more important that ATA100 over ATA66, right??
Any suggestions or comments are welcomed! Thanks!
