Even a Core Duo chip like the t2050 will be way overkill. I actually have that left over too since I am using the t5500 now and I bought the other for testing the jetway.
You can find core duo's for about $20 on ebay.
I dont know what it is Toaster, I guess maybe because my first install was such a flop. I had to pull the whole thing out and now im starting from scratch. Ive wasted so much money trying to go by a budget, my MoBo was crappy, PSU was crappy, and Ive had to replace so much. I figure this time i'll just buy the most high power stuff, that way I have no worries. I think I will go with a T5500, that way not so overkill.
