Going to build a new systenm around one of these
Will get the board when it is over in the UK, are in stock in Holland.
XP 64Bit
4GB RAM eventually 8GB
Two 45nm XEON's hopefully 3.0GHz
then put it somewhere as a printserver (one printer!!) so it can be on 24/7

Very slick. What do you think the whole thing will cost?
HOME: A physical construct for keeping rain off your computers.
well it 'ant going to be cheap. the PSU will be about £200 by itself.
If it was going to be at home then the power usage would be a show stopper. It will be about £2500-£3000
If only i could find a board with that chipset and DIMMS instead of FB-DIMMS that would help the memory band width. Still the chipset lets it run as 2x4 cpu's through the northbridge instead of 1x8 cpu's that other chipsets would do.
Will get the parts over the next 4 months or so get the most price stable bits first, cpu's last.
