Famer Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 I've Updated my next sys build project as it stands it will use1) M$ server 2003 datacenter2 Have a quad xeon or Itanium or Opteron 248 3) at Least 12 to 20 Gigs of mem4) dvd burner for back up 5) four 300gig hard drives6) LCD 24in 7) the reg stuff keyboard mice8) and for the heck of it another vp990 512 video card used in this rig
Aaron Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 lol Famer, you're kidding right? All that for a home system?
Famer Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 Nope IM not im really thinking of building it what do you think of the spec's on it it's not overkill is it
Datalore Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 Yes, yes it is overkill. What the hell are you running, the Matrix itself? An Earth simulator? I'm not saying its a bad system, its just that for most people power like that would go to waste. But if you have enough money to burn on that, I guess you're not most people. Wow, I just customized one around your specs, look at the price.
Famer Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 Well a friend of mine said i could not do it and i told i could build a rir that could run his rig into the ground and this is what i have been working on for a few months and as for the Matrix why the hell not i think this rig would make a dam good version of what some call a gibson
IcemanND Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 let's see, raid 5 on 4 - 300gb drives 900gb or 1.2tb if left as is, 600gb if mirrored.... I would hate to have to back that up to 4.7gb dvd's. if it was ever full.
Famer Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 well i hope i never have to do a backup @Datalore Thanks for the info Will try to keep the build project under a 100,000but that quote seem to be on par with what i have researched

Famer Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 @Crispy Cool rig in fact all you guys are running topshelf rigs the only reasion im planning this build is because it can be done and plus my friend this his dual xeon rig is as top shelf as you can get
Datalore Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 If you don't have $60,000 to burn, you may want to consider a Mach L 3.8 Personal SuperComputer which is considerably cheaper.My specs:Pentium 4 1.7GHz768 RDRAM64 meg Geforce4 MX44055 GB HD19 inch flat screen (not flat panel)8x +/- Plextor 708A DVD BurnerOther integrated crapNot the greatest, but it gets me through the day.
Famer Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 That's cool and all but I want to build it myslef but the spec's on them pc's are off the hook too
