I need to build some SuSE 10 Enterprise Desktop and SuSE 10 Enterprise Server Linux platforms for home use and have a few questions. I want to keep the cost down as much as possible but have good performance. What's the relative performance difference between the systems below? The cost difference is large.
Should I consider AMD and what chip set should I consider? I am looking to keep the cost down to $1,700 per box while getting the best performance possible. Also where is a good place to purchase the systems or should I consider building them myself?
I would. I've built several systems with AMD and never looked back. Right now this one is a dual opteron system with 2 gig of ram. If you'd like to chat about prices and options, email me off-line.
