Hi, Please Cc: me when replygin.
I want to buy a new CPU and a new motherboard, but I really don't know what to buy. Thus I'm poking here to gather some advice. My needs are: - this will be funded by me only, so it mustn't be too expensive (I can't afford a Xeon processor for example), but of course I would like it to perform well! I'm thinking of $600. - this will be a router between two Gigabit network: I also need an advice for a performent GigE adapter; - this will also be my Internet router, so a third Ethernet interface will be needed (onboard would suffice I think); - this will be a NFS server: I need at least two UDMA133 connectors and two S-ATA II connectors onboard; - I own a PCI Promise PDC20319 with 4 SATA150 connectors currently that I'm willing to reuse, so the motherboard must have at least an old PCI slot as well; - FreeBSD MUST be correctly supported :-). Actually I don't even know if I should buy an Athlon 64 or Intel Core. If you have good articles that thoroughly explains all I need to know, please point it out! Thank you in advance for your help.
