But yeah, it's looking like I'm going to need to build a new server. Crap.

However, if you're not really interested in upgrading or gaming and only care about the small amount of space I'm sure it'll be fine. These new cpus probably don't heat up as much.

Funny enough, even with four hard drives and the tower being powered on 24/7 for 3'ish years now, I've never once had a cooling issue with it. The MB dying is the first issue I've ever had with it.
So since it's obviously going to be easier to build a new system, what parts would you guys recommend picking up? I use it as both a backup space for all of my work projects (1080p raw video files) and as a media server for my TV via my PS3 and computer.
