MoSupaFly 07-11-2002, 06:59 PM My PC is kinda old... but it kicked butt back in its days when I built it some umm... 4-5(?) years ago
Asus P2B-LS (built in U2W SCSI controller and NIC)
Pentium II 450 MHz (once o/c to 500MHz! hahaha)
256MB RAM (it actually only had 128MB about 2 weeks ago... I just upgraded! haha)
IBM U2W SCSI 18.2GB HD
Segate U2W SCSI 18.2GB HD
Maxtor 10GB IDE HD

Voodoo 2 12MB 3D card (not in use anymore but still in there)
3Com 56K modem (not in use but still in there)
All stuffed into a Supermicro server case (you know... those really tall ones... wow it's huge).
Hmm... I think that about covers it. Ohh and then there's the 19" Sony monitor... the 5.1 speaker setup from Cambridge that was designed for my SB Live! And my Wacom ArtZ II 6x8 tablet and my HP Laserjet 1100.
It still works... and I'm happy. One day (yeah... I've been saying this for over a year) I'll build myself a new computer.

viGeek 07-12-2002, 03:22 AM Wow its good to see so many AMD powered systems. Like people always say... People who know computers, buy AMD. I guess that is true considering this is a computer related website :) Amd Rules :D

I bet if you ask about server specs, I'll be willing to bet most will be Intel. ;)
NetXL 07-12-2002, 10:07 AM Currently:
Intel Celery 433

Abit BF-6 mobo with slot 1 convertor :)

P4 2.26ghz
512 DDR 2100
Geforce 4 Ti 4200
Abit IT-7 motherboard
Mmmm. :)
cabalstudios 07-12-2002, 12:28 PM Well,
I had the choice between the XP 2200+ and the INTEL 2.53GHz.
The reason I didnt get the INTEL was because, theres no board released on the market that can take 1GB of 1060mhz RIMMs.
There is the ASUS board but that only has 2 RIMM slots :eek: 512MB max, as there are no 512MB RIMMs avaiable either :rolleyes: only 256MB ones
The intel board with 4 RIMM slots isnt released yet :(
Anyhow, I'm happy with the spec I just got.
My address is NeverNeverLand, for the guys who want to pick the machine up :stickout
markblair 07-12-2002, 01:32 PM Originally posted by MGCJerry

Not here. I prefer AMD over Intel in every machine I use. There are a few Intel based PC's that I have but they are workstations and the max MHz on any one of them is 600MHz. I've always been an AMD fan and I have setup and used tons of servers using AMD processors. Never had a problem yet. Just my preference though...

Can you do me a favour and check to see if you have 4 RIMM slots on your board, if you do have you got 4*256 chips or 2*512 to make 1GB or ram.
I would also like to know which mboard it is please.
DanielP 07-12-2002, 03:21 PM 4 slots, 2, 512 chips with two slots filled with buffer chips.
RDRAM requires all slots to be filled to operate, so they have dummy or buffer chips which have to be placed in the remaining slots.
I'll see if I can pull up the brand in a bit.
