Hello,
I am an owner of a small business, and am looking for a workhorse machine to run multi threaded processes all day. I know most people here probably build custom machines for gaming, but this machine I just need solely as a workhorse to continually run in the background with multiple processes. My main requirements are reliability, expandability (for future upgrades), and good stock speed (with perhaps a conservative OC).
I am new to custom builds, and do not exactly have the technical know-how to build a machine myself. But I did find a seller on ebay who is offering custom built machines (he has 100% feedback with over 14,000 sales--which I've never seen before--so people are apparently happy with him). This is the basic machine I am looking at;
INTEL I7 860 2.8GHZ QUAD DDR3 CUSTOM BAREBONES PC NEW - eBay (item 370423056618 end time Aug-31-10 15:40:37 PDT)

-Super Talent 4GB (2x2GB) PC10600 DDR3 1333 Dual Channel

Your thoughts would be appreciated.
