mystikmedia so let me get this straight you have 10GBs of RAM memory? ...Do you ever see the hour glass from your mouse? lol I want a computer where I never have to see the hourglass, 1GB of Memory is kicking it anymore!
I had rather not say. Some here might think me insane. Of course, I need a lot of it for my work, and it's a business write-off too.
No, I have 8 GB RAM, and 5 TB HD. Sometimes I see the hourglass, but usually not for long unless a specific application is setup to show it during a process that depends on other hardware or that is setup to show the hourglass during a the operation.
just want to share what machine i have at my house AMD athlon 3.5 gig 64bit,viewsonic 17 inch lcd monitor,256mb Nvidia 6600 SE,1gig DDRAM, 100gig sata hard disk and 80gig ide hardisk, winxp SE, hp external cdwriter(combo drive)...
I built this as a silent PC -- all of the fans are Nexus and are on pot controls. This is when I first built it.. it has half the storage and still has the passive heatsink on the video card. That video card died a hot death... the new one now has the original cooler. Great forum for this: http://www.silentpcreview.com/
Thanks; it is a CoolPanel -- card reader, fan controller, and temperature monitor. It isn't perfect but was the closest to what I wanted at the time I built it. Did you notice the velcro strap hard drive suspensions

That CoolPanel looks great and is practical as well. I have an Intel 915 GV board. Is it motherboard specific? Would it work on that? Can you give me a link from where i could buy one?
Is that in dollars or indonesian rupiah? Seriously though, technology is one of the bright spots in consumer goods where the price drops over time while the features/functionality and power increases.

You guys realise your $3,000+ computers will be worth $500 or so in 1.5 years right? I've got a sluggish 2.0GHz with 512gb ram and 2 19" lcds. I'd like to upgrade to dual processors, 2-3gb ram and a 3rd lcd but i find it hard to justify spending so much on a machine that's nearly worthless in 16 months
I just spenta ton of cash on PC parts. They should be delivered in a day or two. 1) Dell Latitude X1 Laptop Not a "powerful" laptop based on specs. In fact it only has a 1.x GHZ processor, but I loaded it up with 1.2gb ram, an 80gb hard drive, etc. The main selling point is its size. Its going to be a great travel mate. $2,100 2)Dell 2405, 24 Inch Widescreen Love this sucker. Cant wait for it to show up Im also getting a new rig within the next few days. I need to decide what I want though. Any recomendations for a new desktop system? I dont need the LATEST technology but I would like a decent machine. Im currently surviving on a 1.6ghz laptop and it gets the work done. Mostly used for photo editing, web design, browsing, office tasks etc.
