Published: Wednesday, January 17, 2007 | By: DennisGenerally speaking servers tend to get overlooked in the enthusiast market despite having superior hardware in both power and reliability though when it comes to home office servers you typically get the hand me downs of the people working in the office. In this case it only seems fitting to use ex-enthusiast hardware for this project.

ASUS Striker Extreme Motherboard Review @ Motherboards
Published: Sunday, November 19, 2006 | By: Dennis"ASUS has traditionally launched motherboards on NVIDIA chipsets, AMD (ATI) chipsets, Intel chipsets, Via chipsets and even SiS chipsets, if the board is worthy. Today they have launched their latest high-end motherboard, the Extreme Striker motherboard, based upon NVIDIA's new nForce 680i chipset. This is review of the new ASUS Striker Extreme board and the features of the 680i chipset."
Ya know black and copper make for a really good color combo but the thing that still amazes me is the triple 16x PCIe slots that adorn the new 680i. Just seems to be a little excessive.
