Looking for upgrade, need some advice. OK I am not rich, after my last upgrade just 3 weeks ago, but since I have trouble passing some people on here, and I found a source for 4200+'s near $210 a pop in the box, I can't resist.

I am looking to put together a fast dual or quad chip CPU Server configuration. I have reviewed many and I am at wits end as there are so many choices. I have no fear in building the system myself. The intent of the machine is passing the competition quickly and efficiently. I will be using no water just heatsinks to cool the system. I want efficiency in that it draws the least amount of power but surely gets the job done. That is why I am going with 4200 instead of Opterons (Less Heat and Lower Power consumption)

I have been looking at Tyan, and Asus boards, your recommendations are greatly appreciated, HELP ?

I am looking to have minimal installations of PS and HDD, no CDR's no DVD's just plain on simple crunching, even a low end VGA will do the trick.

There is so much knowledge here, I know I can get a feeling of direction by asking for my team mates assistance, Thank You
