Greetings:
Am building a Linux server, which I will also use for some gaming, but mostly storage for my home's LAN (1+ terabyte worth). Have gotten Abit NF7-S Mobo.
Now am wanting to put in a Barton chip.
Which should it be and why (other than price): (I currently have 4 systems all running unlockable 2500+'s)
2500+ Barton @ $90
2600+ Barton @ $104
2800+ Barton @ $144
I am leaning towards the 2600+ to get a little more performance out of the processor than the 2500+, since they are all now locked.
What are everyone's thoughts.
NOTE: Am using 1G Corsair XMS 3200 CAS 2 memory (2 sticks f 512 for dual channel support)
Thanks in advance.
