Default Wanted..sorta?

What im looking for is a dual p3 motherboard... I have 4 X 512MB PC-133 ram sitting here..and a P3 1GHz processor, along with some lower end p3's...833?

So yeah... basically in the end I would like a Dual 1GHz p3 server with 2GB of ram to use just for an FTP server.

Anyone know where/how much it would cost for a 1GHz p3, and the motherboard?

EDIT: Scratch the processor, im pretty sure I have 2 x 933MHz P3's here...only one 1GHz P3

What do you mean i walked into 3 computer shops yesterday looking for an Antec Neo 550w PSU and the best things they had were p2 PSU's and p3 boards.... I didn't even want to look at the "Computer recyclers" after seeing that.... I mean these shops were selling according for thier signs, "Upgrades, Computer technicians" sorry if i may be wrong here but i'm no certified tech but when i talk to the tech there asking about a 550W neo and he goes, "HOLY S*** what, they make a 550W PSU" yeah i feel uncomfortable.

Even more disturbing is that 550w PSUs are getting old already. Saw somewhere (can't remember where for the life of me) where there is a PSU coming out at over 1Kw, SLi ready of course.

16 hard drives? (a coolermaster stacker with 4x 3to4 drive bay adapters would fit 16 HDs for an 8TB NAS...not that i have $6k laying around)

Enermax also has a 1KW + powersupply, and I believe that Zippy does?

A side note all those 1kw PSUs i believe are abvove 85% effciency. So not only are they massive but also work well to boot. However i think they need high effinciency just to keep the power bill down.
