Hi Everyone,

What motherboard would you all suggest to buy that would be easily upgradeable, that would be able to have high computationally intensive workloads, I am looking for either a Intel DUO or AMD
with dual core depending on performance. This is for running an ISCSI device.

Video is not a major concern as it is a server

I was thinkign ASUS-P5WD2-E Preimum LGA775

or the Asus P5N32-SLI Deluxe

if you anyone could think of a different motherboard i can look into plaese let me know

If you are looking for a server motherboard, I would suggest something from Supermicro or Tyan. These boards are known for being incredibly stable, and are ideal for heavy workloads. Also, you have to consider that servers aren't upgraded as often as consumer level systems. You use them until they no longer do what you require, not necessarily when new hardware is availalbe.
