two bargains? MB+CPU; 1U server

[Tyler Aviss]

I haven't had a biostar mobo in recent years, but the one I had years ago
served faithfully.

I loathe Dell desktops (non-standard parts, highly expensive replacements,
often crappy mobos), but we have mostly Dell servers at work, and they've
been pretty solid, not to mention speedy parts delivery, RMA (a few flakey
drives) etc. There's a definite divide between their corporate and consumer
service/components.

Not sure about Biostar boards.  Never dealt with them.

The CPU is sold out however so it probably doesn't matter.  I guess they
wanted to clear out the old leftovers and seem to have succeeded.

Well I know enough to not buy any computer that says Dell on it.
Monitors and some other parts are great from Dell, but I will not touch
their computers or printers.
