Well the release date will fit in well with my next upgrade/rebuild. It will be interesting to see who has the best single card available at the time I build. I will be saving all my money for the June/July timeframe for my build.

I would like a comparison between stock coolers and after market ones.

I think it will come down to who can overclock higher, from memory the e8400 overclocked higher than the q6600... But modern games are more multi threaded... Hard one to call but I think Luke will win... Until Linus cheats

I have a backup system that backs my important data to both disk and LTO3 Tapes.

Got a mini ITX system for my main system. Bought a BitFenix Prodigy case for it. Not a bad system or case but I just didnt like it. Just replaced the case with a Silverstone TJ08-E case and im about to replace the motherboard cpu and video card for a matx motherboard and i7 processor. In the past: - Gave away or sold all of my previous cases (Antec P182, Antec Super Lanboy, Silverstone TJ06) - Bricked a motherboard with a bad bios flash (P166mmx and Athlon XP boards) - Threw out or lost all my old consoles.

Im finally back home now so I took a few pics of my server to add to the album above.

The scope on this job is just going nuts... That room needs to be completely repatched. Get experienced help on this one... This is a mess

Vlanning it would be the most secure option although you could just configure the wireless router to only allow traffic out the internet and not to other network devices (depending on the wireless routers capability of course)

That would be ideal but I was thinking of trying to keep the costs down while fulfilling the redundancy and avoiding single points of failure requirements

I stand corrected, I scanned but didn't read it.

Not in Server 2012 http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mvpawardprogram/archive/2012/11/05/windows-server-2012-hyper-v-high-availability-without-a-san.aspx

The idea of virtual machines is that they are hardware independent, so its easy to move the VM to another host. Making all servers virtual will fulfill the requirement of high availability. It also makes it easy to migrate to new hardware. Hyper-v hard drive performance and SQL on a VM are fine. Aim for two hosts with good specs (more cores and more ram is more important than high clock speed), set up high availability between hosts that will cover you for hardware failure. Have a good backup system in place, I suggest veeam or shadow protect.
