Ah the good ol' RAID 0, perfect for SSD's. Nice computer. Smile

Shame it's a Dell though.

Lewis · 2011-10-31, 01:09

What are SSD's ?

Whats wrong with a dell ?

Jon · 2011-10-31, 01:59

Dells are for Dongs.

Lewis · 2011-10-31, 02:01

Knew you would butt in you nub ! Smile

FR4NOx · 2011-10-31, 02:13

Solid State Drives, more reliable, faster, no moving parts, more expensive. Putting SSD's in Raid 0 is a good idea because it's cheapest to buy smaller sized drives and Raid 0 makes them operate as one. Smile

My mom's totally anti-Dell because she got unlucky with her m1330 and forces me to hate Dell, but I despise prebuilt desktops anyway. It's cheaper to built it yourself, and it's more "you" in it instead of a conveyor belt and a clueless monkey putting them together.

:3

Anyone out there with Macs?

Pfft two things:

1 Who needs sleep? -says the one who goes to bed at 5am only to wake up 30 minutes later for school

Street · 2011-10-31, 02:48

Kenwood, I have a Macbook for my musical stuff and my custom build PC (I say custom built, I picked the parts and Overclockers did most of it, I added a coupla things mind). Smile

Yes, make sure to purchase a DP to whatever you need adaptor, 6870's ship either with 1 single link DVI, 1 dual link DVI, 1 HDMI, and either 2 mini displayports or 1 displayport. Wait for your PC to arrive and the see what port you have to get a proper connector for the third monitor, unless the monitor uses HDMI then you should be all set.

Yes I know custom-built and self-built, I only go custom-built if I'm laptop shopping and I'm torn between a Sager/Clevo or a sexy MacBook air. Smile

. What are the specs for both?

Hahaha I have two P4's myself, one is my dad's of course. I'll post one up.

Dell XPS Gen 2, out of service due to a corrupted hard drive.
Pentium 4 HT 2.8Ghz
512mb DDR400 ram
ATi Radeon x1650 Pro AGP X8 512mb, a very nice card (that's the third ATi card it's had within 6 years.) stock was a 9800 pro
160GB HDD 5400rpm I think.
Stock airplane style cooling, two 120mm fans blowing full force in a piece of plastic towards an enormous heatsink. Those P4's were hotplates.

Hehe they do make nice monitors.

(194 Fahrenheit)

Yup it's a 2.8GHz socket 478. I don't even know how hot this thing runs, it used to constantly run for months at a time.
