    Dell precision 670 dual Xeon 3GHz HT any good?

    This system is based on netburst chips, so I'm guessing the power consumption vs performance isn't worth it. But I just wanted to check before this system gets scrapped (mainboard needs some new caps so it got pitched).

    Even if I had free electricity , I wouldn't run it.

    I think a PhenomII would produce a lot more.

    Go netburst if you want a single system heating your house and producing some point at the same time (as opposed to points and some heat)
