Happened to have an older Xeon server drop into my lap today.
Specs:
Dual-CPU 2.8GHz Nocona Xeon processors w/ 1MB L2
1x2GB DDR2 (PC3200)
Video card wise, it's rocking an older 6800GS and a 7300GT.
The board is a super micro board that has PCI-E v1.0 so it has the full bandwidth, but I'm trying to figure out what card is right for the system.
Upgrades i'm doing:
New PSU (Seasonic 520W Modular)
couple of SATA drives for OS and storage (nothing more than 500GB a piece)
2GB more of DDR2 (board can handle 16GB but not worth it)
And lastly, the video card.
I'm a little puzzled as what I should pick up. Any suggestions?
