Sorry for the delay, but discovered that the CPU I had intended to use was not compatible with kernel 2.6.28, so had to downgrade to Phenom X4, which then required changes to motherboards, and so on. Anyway, the following components were chosen to support Ultimate Edition 2.3, or at least that is the intended goal. If I've made any screw-ups in this, please advise what changes need be made. So my parts-list:
CONSOLE~ Either Cooler Master CM Stacker STC-T01-UWK or CM Stacker810 RC-810-SKN1
CPU~ Either Phenom X4 9850 (95w) or 9750 (95w)
PSU~ No idea yet, but I require a quiet one, either platinum or gold grade, 600 to 650w; recommendations welcomed.
MOTHERBOARD~ in order of preference:
GA-MA770-UD3
GA-MA770-US3
GA-MA790FX-UD5P
GA-MA790X-UD4P
GA-MA790X-UD4
GA-MA770-DS3P
GA-MA790FX-DS5
MEMORY~ Depends on which board I can track down, but I want the high-grade sort, & max amount possible.
NIC~ This is backup card, in case of problem with the onboard. In order of preference:
Intel EXPI9301CTBLK PRO/1000
DGE-528T
Netgear GA302T
Startech ST1000BT32
GRAPHICS CARD~ Either Geforce 6800GS or 6800GT (PCIe x16 slot, 256 to 512 MB).
SOUND CARD~ Asus Xonar D2
SATA DVD BURNER~ Thinking about the Plextor-880SA, but open to better options.
SATA HDDs~ Need three for dedicated installs. Either WD7500AVCS or WD7500AAAKS-00BA0
SATA HDD MOBILE RACKS~ Need three for above. Suggestions welcomed.
EXTERNAL HDD DOCKING STATION~ Either Orico 6618SUS-BK or Rosewill RX-DUS100
EXPANSION CARD~ Either Orico PST-2E or Rosewill RC-219, for boards without eSATA.
WIRED ROUTER~ In order of preference:
TP Link TL-R600VPN
Netgear FVS336G
