At a $2K budget, here's what you could do. But it would be like mowing your residential front lawn with a tractor. It's borderline overkill, depends on your style. But the plus is that wherever you go, you mow that lawn like it's fkn cake. You'll be able to host and whatnot at blistering speeds.
Dell PowerEdge 2900 Tower
32 GB Ram
Dual quad core proc's, (good ones, since you're hosting)
Redundant power supply
Perc 5i controller
(
146GB 15k SAS Drives (fast speedy drives)
Go to www.cheapdellservers.com, call the number, ask for Chris. Tell him Treachery referred you. He doesn't know shit about hosting, but he's got deals on the hardware. Don't go for a Dell Workstation though. Same power for like $4K.
