Hi
Can anyone recommend a good solid mobo for building a little web server ?
Most brands have a reputation. Select one whose reputation is "good". ;-)
I have FreeBSD running on several mobos --- recently, builds have been FreeBSD 5.x on MSI and Shuttle (AK32V, IIRC).
A good, not too long read on the subject (that you may have already seen) is at:
http://www.freebsd.org/relnotes/CURRENT/hardware/i386/proc.html
(Link may have wrapped).
Is it worth paying the extra for Intel manufactured ?
That's up to you. It's not for me --- and most of our CPU's are AMD as well. But they wouldn't be the biggest if they made shoddy hardware (or would they...?)
Maybe I'm a "cheapo" ... I certainly love the cost of this OS...as well as lots of other stuff about it; I don't tend to drop more cash just for a name, though. YMMV, of course, and there are plenty of other opinions; I hope some of them will be heard here and be helpful to you.
Thanks !
You're welcome.
