Same old same old

Yep, running 43x100 @ 1.240V. Only thing I am noticing that is backwards to me is that at 100% load everything is kinda sluggish. snappy as all get out at idle, but 100% it no longer is. at stock it does not drag. Might just be a quark of overclocking though.

Finally figured out what I am getting I rekon for it this month (aug).

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227706 for the desktop. Maybe something different if there is something faster. I notice that some are in IOPS and some in MB/s. Not sure how to convert them.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320944502617#ht_1417wt_1270 same one I wanted originally. Not quite as powerful as I want, but good enough. Should max global ops, and run everything else just fine, but not maxed.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820226168 to match it.

and a 9 cell battery.

Should replace the D630 nicely.
 
Sure does look good. :) all coming together now.

That looks good. Not really that much more than the OCZ and faster. So should make this system almost complete.
 
Fast shall make this system amazing in my eyes. Its great now, but fast shall be better.

I think I will go redneck though and save the $7.99 on the adapter plate and just zip tie it to the top of the hard drive. That will make it so that I only need one sata cable running off the PSU as I have now.

Jason, do you know much about networking? Like a computer to computer transfer over the same network?
 
Once you've used an SSD as a main boot drive you will never want to go back to a hard drive. It's the best thing you can really do to increase your computer's performance IMO.

I know a bit about networking, can always ask my Dad and get back to you if you have any questions. Networking is what he does.
 
OK I will take a look at your thread and see if I can lend a hand. Networking isn't my strongest subject, I'd like to learn about networking and servers really. Could just ask Dad to teach me a bit. ;)

I only have an SSD in one of my machines, the 2500K rig, all the others I have have HDDs. The SSD is noticeably quicker, especially at booting into Windows and especially at just doing things like installing updates for Windows and opening programs.
 
Sounds good.

And I know they will be better. On the reinstall on the SSD I am not doing windows updates other than the German LP and DX11. Otherwise don't really need them. Been years since I have regularly done updates unless they directly fixed issues I have.
Boot times will be good. Especially with the laptop.
 
On the SanDisk with SATA 6GB/s and AHCI enabled in the BIOS, you'd get about 10-15 second Windows 7 boot ups I reckon. On the laptop with 3GB/s more like 20-25 seconds probably.

I've run my M4 on both 3GB/s and 6GB/s connections, they were the boot times I got. SanDisk will likely be a bit faster.
 
how will that work with Vista SP2? I rekon the boot times would be about the same, so amazing. Im starting to get there. Next up is a full tower case and full water. Little at a time.
 
Vista is a bit slower to boot than 7, my best guess for 6GB/s is about 20-25 seconds possibly and I ran Vista on my M4 with 3GB/s for a while, boot time was around 30-35 seconds. May get 15 seconds on 6GB/s though, possibly.
 
Well, the way I see it, the 10 extra seconds is not worth another $190 to get windows 7 again. I will be just fine with vista most likely.
 
Yeah I'm not sure on the Vista speeds, may even be close to the speed of 7. The fact is Vista is still fine if you don't want 7. It's better than XP.
 
I got tired of making a new thread about every part of my computer, so I made this thread. And we have talked everything out pretty much to make sure that I am getting exactly what I want out of everything. Its going to a perfect computer for me.
 
okay jason, since your probably the only one following this.

D630 is not acting like it is a heat issue right now, so I am going to sideline plans for it and get a replacement. If all else fails, then its replaced. If I can figure it out, then I got a backup. It will all work somehow or another.

so.. plan for now, and it is flexible, is as follows.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lenovo-Thin...tops_Nov05&hash=item4aba3f747e#ht_1417wt_1270
-It has a fx570m. Will it be $100 better than a NVS140m? I don't really need a lot of power. I have a M90 that I can use to game if necessary. I am not sure I need so much in it. I am just trying to replace the D630, which has a NVS135m. I can get teh 140m which is Lenovo's 135m more or less for 144. But would it be a noticible upgrade on the fx570m?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lenovo-Thin...tops_Nov05&hash=item4aba438921#ht_2051wt_1139 is the backup.

- I am tired of crumbs, dirt, fuzz, and other various junks getting under the keys, requiring removal of the keyboard and blow out with the air gun. This should curb that pretty well. Or at least make it easier to clean it.

-That will work with both laptop options, and the desktop, yes? That would be easy enough to use I rekon. Just plug and play? Does 7 still have floppy drivers? Would it load DOS 6.23 onto a drive to play with? That may be in the future, just to play with on a spare HDD.

Okay, the following are buffer zones as I am not sure I need or want them, or will have enough for them.

-Doc, its good. Plug the Ethernet to it, as well as Keyboard and maybe some other stuff I might use at home but not on teh move, like speakers, to it and just have one connection to make.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/150-WHITE-3...p_Jaz_Disks&hash=item20c8ed6586#ht_500wt_1287
-I am not sure if the 10,000 or so in grandads basement are any good still. They might not still work. But Either way, this is cheaper than getting them from Staples, and they don't hold much and iirc may not format right every time, so should last a while before needing more.

okay, all the following I am getting no matter what. I am tired of having them on my flash key, and I am pretty sure some of the proceeds go to developers. So supporting the system.

looks like a lot, but I use them quite regular, and keep loosing my CDs cause im too stupid to write whats on them on the front and end up rewritting the CD, and some of them just go on the flashkey and take up space. Resatux I have not been able to get to work in a while. Looking to use it to fix the BCD on the M90.




Everything looks good except for the questions, yes?
 
its about as fast as a radeon m6600, i just think the real sticking point is the lack of vRam, screen being dim might be a issue, otherwise looks okay.
