what kind of server are you making, a file server, a game server, a web server...?? what kind... Also, its notusually the hardware that makes a server good (sure it helps a damn lot) but the real thing is your net connection, if your running dial-up its gonna be a pretty crappy server, you would need at least a T1 to operate even a basic commercial server on.
So a bit more info i sneeded on what you actually want to do.
