Hello all, I am going to get a new computer next month, and I got a suggestion from my Dad to get a rack mounted server, as he works with them for a living, and could install a graphics card, etc. I was looking through Compaq's servers yesterday, noticed that I could get a system with 4 gigs of memory, a 200 gig hard drive, 2 USB ports, mouse/keyboard hookups, 2 PCI slots, a monitor hookup, and a CD rom drive, for around $3,000. Unfortunately for me, it seems like the only Operating systems offered on these things are windows server and linux, keeping me from running any games on them. My question is, would it be possible to somehow install windows XP onto one of these servers, fit a graphics card into it somehow, get a USB sound card, and have the fastest gaming computer on planet earth?

Just curious...There's gotta be a catch.
