I just ordered my Dell Dimension E510
Pentium D Processor 820
80GB HD ( will add second HD myself)
128MB PCI Expressâ„¢ x16 (DVI/VGA/TV-out) ATI Radeon X300 SE HyperMemory
512mb memory (will addd another 512 shortly)
Saved some money and got NEC MultiSync-E750, 17" CRT Monitor

All I can say is I am happy it's like going from a Pinto to a Lamborghini well for me it seems that way

Sounds like a neat system. Certainly better than mine. Enjoy!

what would be the specS?

[blutach]

Athlon 64 3800 X2 (Dual Core)
ASUS A8N-Sli Premium Mobo
1 Gb Corsair RAM
80 Gb WD300 IDE drive (system drive) - this is my data drive in my current machine
2 x 300Gb Seagate 7200 rpm SATA-2 (16Mb) in RAID 1
Leadtek PX6200TC-TDH (128Mb) (I'm not a "gamer")

Will transfer my trusty 4163B over to the new machine and keep my BenQ FP737S monitor.

Good corsair or the slow stuff?

Mirrored redundant data array?

performance hit from the old hard drive as system drive?

are you doing the load?

[blutach]

Corsair XMS3200 400Mhz
RAID -1
No, the old drive is actually quite fast and is just used for the system.

Thanks to anonymez for his consulting on this.

Moi? Load? BWAHAHAHAAHAHA. I'll add the software I want when it comes to me with Window$ installed.

This thread is being hijacked - sorry to BR7. Congrats to BR7.

how do you tell the dif? is it a good of the slow?

Corsair CM2X1024-5400C4 1 GB DDR2-667 DDR2 SDRAM (5.0-5-5-15 @ 333 MHz) (4.0-4-4-12 @ 266 MHz)

Thanks

everest after it's installed

specs when you buy it
corsair xms is next to top of the line(good buy)

cas-wait states, lower numbers are better,
how long does the memory wait till next execution or something to that effect
terribly complicated but with that cpu, critical, see how mill's beat anony's by
18%(same cpu).

[blutach]

The 80Gb drive has an 8Mb cache (WD800-JB)
