I have a bit of a delema here.
I can buy a pair of 5150's, S5000VSA, 2gigs ram for $350 locally. I have 8 gigs ram laying around and a power supply for it.

Or I can buy another Q9450.... Choice?

The dual 5150s need FBdimms and the board will probally cost you more.
Thanks
 
The 8 gigs I have are FBdimms and the S5000VSA is a intel server board...

More input? I am about to buy them :p
 
Well does your board take e54xx xeons? If so there is a guy on the forums selling two e5410's for $200ea...pretty sweet deal for 8 cores of intel goodness
 
Buying them tonight :) Looks like I will be selling the 5150's for some 54xx's since they are cheap. Ebay has a pair for $200 ish.
 
ehh he sold them already..but you can find them on ebay for about the same.
