Hello experts.
My old trusty atom file-server just died on me, so I need some advice on CPU choice before I build a new one. I had almost ordered the Intel Xeon E3-1225 V2, but now I'm in doubt if the AMD FX (8350 Black?) would be a better choice, since my server will often be doing multiple things at the same time.
Usage:
Torrents, HTPC (video and music), SSH, tiny webserver, samba, transcoding, dns, etc...
No gaming, headless when not used as HTPC and onboard GPU won't be used. It will be running Linux of some sort.
Thanks for any info
