Sandeep,
Thank you for all your advice!
You are right on clients being older than 2 years, and 2009 sounds right now. And, they were not high end machines back then.
Do you think there is a lot more room for improvement with a new processor/machine vs. the SSD/OldMachine? If so, and especially by a lot, how about vs. 8 thin clients on an AC server with SSDs with data backup to my main server? If that, what kind of rough specs would be needed for an AC server?
I thought your components list was a guideline for us to purchase and assemble ourselves. Didn't realize you assembled.
One Christmas I purchased components for my teenagers to each assemble a gaming desktop. Educational and saved a lot of money.
