I was looking around for a fun/cheap system to build. I was going to do sckt a with a xp 2800+, but when I was looking for mobo's I stumbled upon the dual sckt a's.
Looked on ebay and you can bid on them and try to get them for cheap, otherwise they want 100-200 for them. So I was looking at the processors, and the only way to do dual proc's is with the Athlon MP's. Those are hella expensive on ebay too, but you can try to bid for them and get them for cheap.
I really have no purpose for this build other than for fun, and I might use it for a proxy or a storage server for my parents house. (Just for shits'n'giggles)
So do you guys think I could get mobo/cpu's for a decent price? or know of a place where their cheap? or have any that you'd be willing to sell?
Also, what kind of performance do those get as a file storage or even to play WoW just for fun? Please no flaming on how stupid of an idea this is, because as I said I'm just looking into it for fun and to learn.
