Re: Benefits of Raid
What type of cad/Cam software do you use? I work for a millwork company. We use Autocad and MasterCAM for our CNC machines.

Re: Benefits of Raid
Ive thought of that but even with a NAS that runs as a itunes server you still have to go through a pc to do home sharing for the apple tv. This is a stupid requirement of itunes for the appletv. The other thing is Im going to have this computer regardless and it is on most of the time anyway. I had...

Re: Benefits of Raid
Honestly, I dont think you need RAID at all. Just doesnt seem like you have enough data to justify it. You could go with a RAID 1 setup to have a total backup of a drive but like you said, you can just use drive mirroring. So, no, you don't need RAID IMO. Now go and get some big hard drives and hav...

Re: D975XBX2 video card recomendations
I would like to spend as little as possible but Im willing to go up to about $400 if that is what its going to take to play games like unreal 3 and crysis. I think I remember reading that the ati 3870's where going to be about $200 a piece so two of those might be the way to go.

D975XBX2 SLI drivers
I was wondering if hacked SLI drivers for the nvidia 8xxx series existed? I know I saw them for the 7XXX series. If anyone knows if they exist if you could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.
Thanks
Thanks

Im already using the 500w in my computer. I know a larger psu would be better but this is what I have. Will it be enough for the 8800 gtx? I dont plan on going with a dual setup as there are only hacked sli drivers for my motherboard and if in the future I do go that direction I will buy a new psu o...

Im looking for opinions on 24" monitors.
I just got a new 30" dell monitor at work and now my 19"crt at home seems so small so Im going to get a new 24". I think Ive narrowed it down to two choices the Gateway FPD2485W or the Dell 2407wfp. Has anyone used either of these or any other 24" widescreen that you could give m...

I have a D975XBX2 in a lian li a10b case and ocasionally when I touch the case the computer restarts. I thought it was the mother board but I thought I would try testing out the power reset butto...

I think there is a short in the power switch on my new comp.
I have a D975XBX2 in a lian li a10b case and ocasionally when I touch the case the computer restarts. I thought it was the mother board but I thought I would try testing out the power reset buttons first. This is what I did. I turned the computer on then touched the side and the computer restarted I...
