Alrighty, now that I got my new setup goin... SPEC FEST!

Post by Kakarot »

Lets keep it to your main machine. We all know some of you supergeeks out there have an entire enterprise network setup at home... but lets list only you're biggest meanest supercomputer. Here's mine:

AMD Athlon Tbird 1.4ghz@1.6ghz 2.05v(air cooled with GW Copper hs w/delta)
Epox 8K7A AMD761 DDR mobo
384mb Crucial PC2100 DDR Ram
ATI Radeon 64mb DDR ViVo
Adaptec 29160 U160 SCSI Card
SB Live! 5.1
3COM 10/100
Pioneer 6x SCSI DVD Slot Load
Yamaha 20x10x40 IDE Burner
Seagate 9.1gb Cheetah
IBM 75gxp 30gb ata100 Drive
ZIP100 internal SCSI
Antec SX830 Case w/5 total 80mm Fans
Enermax 350w PS with two fans
Klipsch 4.1 Speakers
Sony 17" Trinitron monitor
Logitech Wireless Optical Mouse
Win2k pro SP2


I think thats about it. Anyone else have a machine at 1.6ghz or faster? I haven't tried mine faster than 1.6 yet. I figure anything faster wouldn't be much different unless its at least 100-200mhz faster.

Say Kak don't wanna crap in your thread, but I wanted to ask ya if that 6x Pioneer DVD drive manages to keep up with that 20x burner when disk copying at full speed. If not I wanted to know what is the best speed you can get it to burn at?

Tanks bud and a most excellent machine there. :)

Hammer: No it won't. The fastest Nero would burn from cd to cd was 12x. Burning off the hdd I was able to do 16 or 20x no problem tho. Hope you're hanging in there bud. Heard you're mom passed. My prayers will be with your family. ;)
