I'm looking at upgrading a dedicated box that I'm hosting TS3 and Minecraft dedicated on...

Right now, I have a 2.5gig / 3.0 ghz single core with a 350 watt psu..

Looking to find something cheap either mobo/ram/cpu combo for older generation parts.

PM me or post here with what you're looking to part with and the price.
 
got a duel xeon 2.8 with 4gb of ram i think and will it go for $135 shipped
 
Do you want actual server grade parts? Or are you looking just for older parts to turn into a computer thats always on. I have plenty of those I'd like to part with

Game servers do not require much power. I have COD4, and CSS dedicated servers both running in Win7 VM's with only 1/2gig of ram dedicated to each. They both run w/ out a hitch.
 
It doesn't have to be "today's" server grade parts.

More or less, the server runs fine, it hitches up a lot when its CPU intensive processing... ie, people teleport around on the map etc, so we're wanting to make that go away.

It also does an hourly back up that writes 40,000 to 100,000 files while the server is running as an anti-griefing measure.

Right now, the backup takes 10-15 minutes and it hitches up while its doing it, so we're wanting to reduce that.
 
Reviewing the offers/PM's - wanting to get this sometime soon hopefully. (Bump!)
 
Donations for our server has increased, so i may be looking at more expensive parts, we'll see.

I'm still searching but a quick question to some of the avid users.

Should a AMD phenom II x4 CPU do better than 2 dual amd 285 opterons?

If I can avoid using "server" parts for the same basic use / life span, I think i'd rather go that direction.
 
My sig rig is for sale. I can strip whatever you don't want out of it to bring the price down because I was looking for like 500 for the whole thing. PM me and we can see what we can do.
 
Got an MSI K9ND Speedster, Two quad core Opteron 2352's and 4x1 GB Registered ECC. Should be great for what you want. Board supports up to 16GB ram. Can get pics tomorrow.

$250 shipped
 
The K9ND Speedster is a Very nice board. I had a bunch of them. Sold them all out. Time for C32, lol
 
I was looking into dual quad Opteron 8000's but the person's board fried when they were testing it. Totally threw my plans out the window on that.

I'm looking for something that can hold up to 16gbs of ram, either a quad core / hex core processor and has the possible ability to raid 0/1
 
Do you want Intel or AMD? I have several barebone sever models available as well as dual socket motherboards for both AMD and Intel
