Home Server (Intel or AMD)

by adetolaoyawale . Updated 18 years, 2 months ago

Hi,

I’m planning to build a new server for my home lab to be used mainly for running multiple VMWare Machines. I have settled for the following: Ubuntu 8.4 Server, 8GB RAM minimum, 1TB Hard Drive.

However, I can’t make up my mind on the processor and motherboard to use. I prefer a QUAD core processor (AMD or Intel) and would appreciate any recommedation from the forum on what to go for bearing in mind that I want to keep cost to the minimum.

Many thanks in advance.

Tola
