hello , me and my bud created a dedicated server using linux redhat9.0, we are using 3 motherboards with 3 pentium3 processors overclocked at 600mhz a piece, we are using cat5 cables to wire it up, i was wondering if it would be worth getting cat6 cables, or will it not make a differnce?

Well, Cat5 Cables have a maximum throughput of 100Mbits.

So if your Ethernet cards are also maximum of 100Mbits then no, it would do no good to upgrade your ethernet cable.
