Hello everyone.
I am involved in a very.... Interesting situation.
I work for a mid sized family owned company that serves close to 2,000 retail stores around the USA. I have spent the last month taking them out of the stone age of local 3 people on one PC to 3 terminals on a net server..... Anyways the time has come for there small file server to be upgraded from a dual pentium 3 450mgh to something alittle up do date and fast. Now I know what comes to mind when I think of blazzing server speeds so I had my parts list and was all set. Then Mr. Boss decided to throw a wrench in to my whole plan. He told me that he would much rather spend the money and buy new parts for my own personal computer and use whats left over for his server. I thought I herd him wrong so he repeated and I almost wet myself . So now my problem is. Where do I go????
Atm here is my setup as in my sig
Pent 4 3.0gig Prescott 1mg Cache HT
2 gig DDR1 Matched 800fsb (Odd ball brand from fry's )
Gigabyte GA-8Ik1100 V2.0
The rest im keeping.
So yea .. Wow.... What to do ???? I could go AMD but in the past (3 years agoe and crappy mobo) I have had bad luck so im sure they have changed sence then.
So lets pretend you have someone telling you. "Pick whatever Prossessor , Mobo , and ram you want cause its time you got the good stuff" and off you went to pick out your new chips. What would you get? Why? What would you do with it? PLAY BALL!
Thanks in advance.
