I'm really interested in making a small form factor file server and BOINC 24/7 machine. I've looked at the AM1 ecosystem but it seems to be EOL and the used parts that are available are too expensive for their performance level.
Are there any plans for a cheap socketed replacement for AM1? I haven't seen any BGA or socketed Stoney Ridge or Bristol Ridge parts anywhere. It seems my best route right now is to find a used FM2+/APU combo on eBay or go Pentium G4600 / Celeron on a cheap ITX board. Any advice?
