- ---> NEW HOUSE 7/17/09 !! <---
ive decided to set up 2x (personal) 24/7 Intel rigs...
but i dont really "know" intel very well at all.
tell me what you think (be nice please)
here are the core parts im looking @:
Asus P5GD1-VM Intel Socket 775 Motherboard / Integrated Video / 8-Channel Audio / 10/100Mbps Ethernet LAN / USB 2.0 / Serial ATA
Intel Pentium 4 630 3.0Ghz / 2MB Cache / 800 FSB / Socket 775 / HyperThreading / Processor with Fan
Corsair TWINX Dual Channel 1024MB PC3200 DDR 400MHz Memory(2x512MB)
was thinking of splitting the mem so 1x 512 stick for each rig
(you can get QMD's with 512 right?)
ill probly just get 2x "cheep-o" HDs and set them up as independent PCs
i should already have the rest of the parts ill need (quality PSU, CD, etc)
how are the STOCK HSF's that come with the CPUs?
(i can lap them and put a better fan on if needed)
these will not be in cases and will be kept in my basement PC room (never gets >70F, i use an AC unit in summer and an open window in winter)
THANKS for the help
PS if you have other suggestions please try to find them from Globalcomputer as this is where my work place deals with.
