get ssd at least as a main drive. if you're not doing anything heavy processing wise, i5 is plentifulComment

You'll be perfectly fine if you go with an i5-2400, just as long as you don't plan on overclocking. They're really nice processors.Comment

Go to Dell.com and search for the Cray. If you can afford one, it will most likely be the last you ever buy.PornGuy skype me pornguy_epic

Affordable computers are becoming faster over time in the past few decades. Think about Pentium 1 processor. After that, there was Pentium 2, 3 and 4.Send me an email: [email protected]Comment

You need to get a SSD, there's no way around it.. the difference is insane.. I boot up in like 25-30 seconds or so.. and the start up of any program takes the blink of an eye (almost)Comment

my TRS-80 just died, so I'm using my old webtv set up!“If we are to have another contest in the near future of our national existence, I predict that the dividing line will not be Mason and Dixon's but between patriotism and intelligence on the one side, and superstition, ambition and ignorance on the other.”

I ended up dropping the SSD as my system drive.. Over time, you start losing max storage space as there are max writes (10,000) to each block, which is pretty bad for a system drive.
Unless of course newer versions resolves this.
My rig:
Asus Z8NA-D6c
2x Intel Xeon e5620 @ 2.4GHz
12 GB Kingston DDR3 1333 ECC Registered RAM (2x of the link)
MSI N560GTX-Ti Twin FROZR II
Samsung 2333HD 23" LCD monitor
Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 1000W
Main system drive is a regular sata2 drive (seagate 500GB)
Main Work disk is a 128GB SSD (Crucial, it's an older model.. need to upgrade)
Work archives spanned across 2x 1TB RAID 1Comment

I believe that SSD problem was fixed, not exactly positive though. The newer models have came a long way and SSDs using the Sandforce controllers are much better then they used to be. I still only looked at Intel, Crucial m4, and Samsung's 830 series to be on the safe side though.I ended up dropping the SSD as my system drive..

Why??
You can spend less, get a better system and a normal computer with a big screen.Comment

You attached a 27 inch screen right? I mean buying a small screen laptop just for a game kinda defeats the purpose.ASUS ROG set-up bought specifically for Skyrim - http://rog.asus.com/notebook/17-inch/g73jw/ (with all the max off the shelf specs)Comment

Get the best
Worked at one of America's biggest movie theatre companies.
Everybody had IBM's
Except the Art Design Dept.
Totally Mac.
I also used my PowerBook on a few accounting as there's a funky old database that works better than any new Windows or Mac program. Saved thousands of hours of work and made thousands of dollars in income.Comment
