I have built several gaming type computer but now am building my own server. Is there any reason why I would want a server chassis and power supply over a standard case and power supply (ATX server motherboard should fit fine?) I'm looking to cut costs where I can where it doesn't matter that much. All server tower cases seem to be quite expensive. I like power supply/case combo's but do want a relatively decent power supply that isn't going to kill my components or die after a year. Any suggestions?
