Hi
I'm planning on building myself a new mini-server for manageing AD DS, WDS, DHCP, DNS and Hyper-V. My current setup is a Fujitsu-Siemens OEM-motherboard, Intel Celeron D 346 3.07GHz Single-Core and 1.5GB 200MHz DDR memory. Right now the bottleneck is my CPU as it runs at 100% when haveing a remote connection to it.
The system is in a OEM Amitech Mid-Tower case and there's very restricted airflow.
My new build is planned to be as follows:
Motherboard: MSI FM2-A55M-E33
CPU: AMD A8-5500 4 MB
RAM: Kingston HyperX 2GB 1333MHz
ATA-133 PCI-controller: DIGITUS DS-33104 PCI-ATA
I will use the case I already own, and I have a 300W PSU that has all the required connectors, but only has a 20-pin for the motherboard. I read on the internet that you can use the 20-pin, but when the systems gets under load it will need more power than the 20-pin can provide. I need to save some cash, so I decided to use my old PATA-drives, as they run smoothly and I see no need of changing them to SATA-drives just now. I also looked into getting myself a better cooler for the system, so I took a look at the ZALMAN CNPS 5X Performa, as it's small and would fit into my case and not block anything. I will not be using Hyper-V in the beginning until I get more Money to upgrade the memory.
If the PSU will not work I will buy a Corsair AX750 for my current desktop pc, and take my 750W non-modular PSU from my desktop and use in my server.
What do you think of this setup? Will the CPU run very hot for running the tasks mentioned? Will it be able to run on a 300W PSU that only has a 20-pin motherboard connector?
Here's a list of the final setup:
Case: Amitech OEM case
Motherboard: MSI FM2-A55M-E33
CPU: AMD A8-5500 4 MB
RAM: Kingston HyperX 2GB 1333MHz
PSU: 300W OEM PSU
Boot-HDD: Seagate 80GB P-ATA
Storage-HDD: 250GB WDC P-ATA
DVD-drive: Lite-On Super-Multi DVD-drive P-ATA
ATA-133 PCI-controller: DIGITUS DS-33104 PCI-ATA
