that sounds more like a desktop system, not really what I'd consider server grade. no ECC support, no redundant power supplies, etc etc.

Going this route has served me just as well for the last 3 years and at a cost I can afford. This is actually a major step up from what I am running and should see better mysql performance. (pretty high CPU utilization currently)

Although these old servers were cutting edge when I originally installed Centos the installs were pretty smooth. But since have had a few bad experiences with some other Asus Nvidia chipsets on install.

So I am looking for some proven success with the G33 chipset so I do not end up with a board which going to be a pain on install.
