Your hardware specs
Well, someone had to do it.
I think this would be a good idea for a sticky so we don't have to type in our specs everytime we ask a question... Here goes: AMD Athlon XP 2600+ Soltek SL-FRV75 ATI Radeon 8500 1 gig 2700 DDR RAM Creative Sound Blaster live Kingston 10/100 ethernet adapter generic firewire card Sony Trinitron 21' G520 HP 17' m70 monitor 2 Western Digital Special Edition hard drives - 1 120 gig, 1 40 gig Creative CD_RW drive 12/10/32 Pioneer DVD drive Big-Ass Cheiftec case w/ austin 450W power supply And a partridge in a pear tree. |

I am too jealous, amazed, and embarrased to post my own specs here. Besides I just shorted out my laptop with all my drool...

Thats cool. I'm trying to get a PVR set up using mythtv. It looks really nice. www.mythtv.org (for linux). Bad part is there's no support for a WinTV PVR yet, but the good news is they're working on it :)

Konichiwaneko: You must have a lot of money ;\
I guess I'de be doing the same with it though... You might want to consider upgrading your motherboard to the sinxp1394, much mores stable overclocking enviroment, supports ddr400 and SATA for your raid setup ;\ |
Don't make that much money, just spend it on computer likes guys spend on cars, and stuff. Hobby.
I mostly sell and buy, so I end up not paying much. I'm waiting for the Canterwood Abit board. I have a it7 also running a 2.4 at 3.2 right now, I love the 845 chipset. Supringsly my drives aren't raided, I change hardware so much I don't want to worry about it. |

method..how do you like the raptors?
|
I work for WD so I got some early sample S-ATA drives. They've been really wonky. I don't fear for my data or anything, it's more that the array will be have noticable performance variations. I'm certain that the reason for this is because my the firmware on my drives most like pre-alpha. I just got a 120 GB S-ATA drive which I'm gonna install on a new Asus Canterwood mobo that's being delivered. I'll let you know how the 120 GB model goes.
|
ah nice..I just picked up an abit canterwood board, I don't like this p4g8x at all....it's been horrible for me.
Probably will put up some raptors soon. |
I have absolutely no reason to buy a canterwood. I've been really happy with my p4g8x deluxe. I just can't resist faster shit... :)
I have had a complete love-hate relationship with Asus over the years though. Many a time I've sworn them off cursing into the night. But I think I've found the secret with Asus products. They typically do a real good job on their HIGH end shit (i.e. A7N8X Deluxe, the P4G8X Deluxe, A7M266-D); however, anything other than the highest-end product offering from Asus has a 50-50 chance of sucking balls. Whenever I build budget systems for family or friends, I always go MSI or Abit. They've never done me wrong with the mid price tier. I would've love to have sworn off Asus years ago, but they just pack so much good shit on their high-end boards.... too tempting for my weak-hearted nature! :) |
Yeah I know what you mean. I bought the A7v133 ages ago, great board. Before I had the Cusl-2c, the P3b-F, and the p2b-f. All great boards.
After that ironically I hated how their boards looked, the puke brown could only go so far. So I picked up other manufactureres, mostly MSI with the nice red. The first abit board I had to get though was the It7 and man I love it. It's running my second system (a 2.8 at 3.15) right now. I also had a it7-2 and that was a great board. Oh well, I guess I just don't like the p4g8x cause it doesn't have soft menu. |

oh yeah and umm anyone know if they can give me a lil bit of advice/opinions on OC ability on my system right above this? I've never done it before, I have 7 fans in my case, not sure if that helps w/ keeping the heat down enough to overclock and stuff... any advice woudl be appreciated :D
|
What's yours heatsink Tek?
|
well i'm using the generic thermaltake one, i dunno the model number, but it came w/ the xaser case. I'm thinking of going for the Thermaltake SPARK 7 HSF for Socket 478 cuz it's the only one i can find that supports up to 3.06 ghz, anyways, not sure, what advice do you have :)

It appears that many users that post their specs use AMD. Do Pentium users feel inadequate, or are they just confident? ;)
|
AMD's are cheaper yet have nice performance ratio's.
Most P4 owners I've found are Multimedia people like me. We tend to have multiple monitor setups and so forth. For the gamer, Athlons supply a better alternative because hell...the money you save can be used for better hardware. It's been shown as always that content creation is always faster on the p4, thus why I have mine as my main rig. |

hey, isn't that funny. I run Intel because well, that's what's in the systems I bought :) I don't like to build systems...got over that phase in the late 80's...
I'll buy whatever is being offered as a full system. I stick with Intel because that was my first real PC back in 86 or 87. I'd by an AMD if the price was right, and the major vendors offered them (I'm really big on extended warranty and service: something you can't get from mom n pop shops here) |
Boober you should check the "how many people here built their own comp " post then, I think you would make some good points about why OEM's work for you.
Concerning what you have, the Wacom is nice. I have one also and man it's fun to use. Also with your machines, I wouldn't run 640 megs on each machine. Take 128 out of one, and up one machine too 768, while putting a 512 in the other (your main one). For some odd reason Windows has issue allocating odd memory counts correctly (this was an issue with 98, and 2k prominently I believe, but can exist with xp). So having one machine at 1gig, and the other at 768 (which isn't odd because many machines have this) should theoritically make your machines run a little bit better memory allocating wise. |

Build date: August 2001 OS: Win2k Pro SP3 Proc: AMD Athlon 1.33GHz Motherboard: MSI 6380LE (KT266) RAM: 512MB Corsair XMS 3200 DDR cas2* Video: Asus V7700pro (Geforce2 Pro 64mb) Monitor: Viewsonic A72f Sound: Creative Labs X-gamer 5.1 Speakers: Klipsch 2.1 Headset: Plantronics Audio.90 HDD: 60gb Western Digital** CD-RW: Lite-On 52x24x52* DVD-ROM: Toshiba 16x NIC: 3com Etherlink 10/100 *this rig was originally built with 2 x 256MB of Micron(i think) DDR RAM...around nov/dec 2002(not sure if that's right...but i think so), one of the sticks bit the dust, so i ordered the new Corsair XMS RAM, and i also bought the CD-RW at the same time. **Originally built with a 30GB WD drive. After driving to a LAN party in March 2003 and turning on my pc, i found out that my hard drive was dead (ride to the LAN was too bumpy? not sure what killed it)...i got the click of death, you know...when your read head is smacking up against the drive while it spins. so i ran to best buy and picked up a 60GB drive. I spent the morning of the LAN partitioning, installing windows, drivers, and then games...and played for the afternoon :cool: |

The machine does the job I want it to do and when I can afford to build a top spec machine I will. I have three more machines which I might post but I can't be bothered right now, lol. |
I had to bump this, as I am feeling cocky.
I ditched the dual bios, dual channel Gigabyte after two months, and went back to my favorite. SOYO! Using the VIA 600, AMD Barton 3200, 1.5 gb ddr400 (Corsair XMS), AIW 9800, Maxtor 6Y120MO (SATA 120gb for those who care) x 2 (striped). I can balance my checkbook soooo fast with this setup. Of course, my balance is now zero, but, having fun. I have a 21 SONY I got from <a href="http://www.merkortech.com/pricelist.asp">These guys</a>. The burners, sound card (Audigy2 Platinum) and stuff don't really matter. The bottom line is, the kids are grown and gone! Damn! I guess you never get away from it all. My bride (Grandma) is telling me to tone it down. Grand kids you know. Have a great Labor Day weekend TFP folks! |

Girly 'puter stuff. |
BoCo. Accept the previous post as a slam toward an Ozark hayseed! Just having fun my friend.
I am running the Volcano 11 off of an Enermax front fan control and it is pretty damn loud even down to 3800 rpm. I have a tube going out the back and a fan feeding the Thermaltake. I have Vantec heat sinks con fan (a little esapanol) on my drives. I have a fan tha fits in a pci slot, but is not pci, to work with my Radeon. I bought a Lian-Li on your input, and am happy with it. The cooling works nicely, and the black case and blue lights work nicely with my SONY dvd burner which is black and has blue lights. Hope the timing belt worked bud. <b>Healthy Christian for Life</b>, |
Nice to see you got a Lian-Li, and you're absolutely right about the Volcano 11+ fan. I'm going to put a CoolerMaster blue LED fan back on in it's place this weekend because it's too damn loud.
