maybe i'm doing something wrong but this thing is slow.
wicked slow.
system specs are
2 x 2 gigs ocz reaper 1066 @ cl 5
750 watt corsair power supply
asus m4a79 deluxe mobo
the problem my be my raid array.
i have a 4 drive raid 5 made with crappy 16mb cache 7200 rpm hitachi drives.
according to crystal disk i'm getting 9.8 mbs random write, 130mbs seq read.
64kb clusters.
maybe get a cheap raid card? i just figured w/ 4 cores the cpu could handle the raid.
let me know if anyone has any suggestions.
this thing is slow. compared to my i7 it's a freaking turtle. it's alot slower than my old e8500 at 3.8ghz that had 1 raptor as hard drive. i gave that computer away to my cousin. perhaps i should have given him the AMD rig
