- ATI Radeon Sapphire X1950GT with 512 MB video card (dual DVI and TV out)
- Intel DG33FB motherboard with 3 gig pc800 memory with Intel Celeron 450 (single core 64 bit) 2.20GHZ/512/800/86 processor
I'm not entirely sure what I'll do with it but someone gets an upgrade. I'll need a new power supply since this has some PCIe slots and 24 pin power. Power requirements from http://extreme.outervision.com/psucalculatorlite.jsp for a reasonable configuration is around 443W. I'll order a 600W power supply and a couple of fans. While I'm at it I'll order fans for Ohio.
The board also has 11 mount points. I'll need to check the chassis I have to see if they are in fact usable. If not I'll order a case.

Intel docs say board supports Core 2 Duo/Quad processors ($170-$200 chip upgrade). Not worth it.
I'll need to work through the details but it looks like I can mount it in one of the old chassis with a new power supply. Alternately, I could buy a chassis and build a really big storage server.
