Thanks for all the suggestions and feedback guys... I certainly will take it all into consideration when building this. I have plenty of ram lying around, though with that old style memory it's more a matter of finding a match than anything. I am putting it together either way, and will check out its serving capacity once it's up and running. I will upgrade later on down the line if it goes well and I deem it as "necessary" (it WOULD be fun to host a 32 player server, I've just got to get enough people interested in playing on that server without cheating or hacking, which doesn't appear to be very likely, hehe). Anyway, I'll certainly let you all know how it turns out in the not too distant future =)
Take care...
