Building a server
I'm going to buy a computer, and customize it. I am going to add new harddrives, motherboards, fans, etc. What motherboards and graphic cards, harddrives, etc etc would you recommend? This will be a dedicated server, also. I have a few things in mind, but I want to hear other people's opinion.

server motherboard (supermicro, intel) with serverworks or intel chipset, SCSI 15K RPM drives, RAID - ICP Vortex or if you want to go cheap serial ata + 3ware controllers

you don't have to be worry about video cards on a server

chasis - redundant power supplies....

Yes, I'll run it out of my house, but it will just be a server computer. I have got a few things in mind:
I need a video card, because the computer I'm buying doesn't have a good one. Are these good things to buy?

No, if I did offer free hosting, it would be around 100mb. Anyways, thanks. Do you have any tips for me? I would really appreciate it.
