Default Project Triple Rig

I wasn't sure if this should go here or in Mods and Ends. It's more of a Computer build then a mod project (right now anyways) so I figured it would fit here better.

Over the past couple of months I have been buying, trading, and acquiring computer parts for my 2nd Rig. In the process I bought another case and PSU. So now my Blue Full Tower Cheiftec w/PSU is sitting empty. I can't just let a case sit there empty so I bought this on Ebay. I know its not high speed but it will serve its Purpose.

So I will be basically building/rebuilding 3 computers simultaneously. You can see my Sig for my Main Rig's current configuration. When I am done all three computers will be as follows.

MAIN RIG
Lian Li PC75
AMD 64 X2 4400
Corsair XMS 2 GB DDR,
EVGA Nvidia Geforce 7900GT CO
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum,
ASUS A8N32 SLI Deluxe (Trade)
Enermax Liberty 500w (New)
Plextor PX-708
Plextor Plexwriter Premium,
Western Digital 74 GB 10 K RPM SATA Raptor drive
4 x Western Digital 250 GB 7200 RPM SATA in Raid 5

RIG #2 (Linux Box)
Cooler Master Wavemaster Silver (New)
AMD 64 3700 (Trade)
ASUS A8N SLI Premium
EVGA Nvidia Geforce 7600GT CO (New)
Enermax 550W Whisper II
1GB Gskill DDR
Pioneer CD/DVD-R Dual layer Combo
WD 320 GB HD SATA (New)

SERVER
Blue Chieftec Dragon Full Tower
Dual Athlon MP 1200 CPUs
Tyan Tiger S2460 Dual CPU MB
Nvidia Quadro 2 64mb AGP
512mb Viking PC2100 ECC
Enermax 350W PSU
WD 200 GB HD IDE
Still need a DVD drive for this Rig

I will post pics of all three builds. Should be fun.

Drat. I thought you were cramming three computers into one big case.

I should have used Rigs in the title instead of Rig.

I have always wanted a Dual CPU Rig. They are just cool. I don't really need Dual CPUs in this Rig, but then again I don't need 2 more computers either :)

I can dig it hitman. I purchased a dual p3 taulitin with all the SCSI drives for a server, and man, it runs MS server 2003 real good!!

The dual p3's are the 1.133mhz chips. I just need to find a 32 bit PCI pro card somewhere. Not sure who in the world would be still have any of them in stock
They were fairly hard to find 8 or 10 years ago.
