Hahah nice Pike
I'm going to leave the 250gb in there, only get 1gb of ram, and the x1900. I'll also get the bluetooth+wifi, no fibrechannel, and I'll get the rest of the ram and hard drives off newegg

is it just me or does ne1 else find it absolutely rediculous how we just come out with dual core not even a year ago.. and now we have 4x that power... quad cores have barely even been out.. and they already have computers with dual quad cores??? just amazing how technology is advancing these days....
then a even more interesting note.... A) what are you going to do with all this power that you cant already.. and B) what program supports and uses the new features... kinda like vista.. no programs really take full advantage of its powers yet... hell they barely have programs taking advantage of dual cores power... let alone this (btw there may be media programs like adobe or final cut pro.. but not stuff so i dont know what they use/take advantage of besides knowing they are really powerful programs that take alot to run)....

 That is what happens. I've been in the IT industry for 11 years now, and I've seen so much change, and things go obsolete very quickly.Quote:
Anyways, I thought it was obvious haha that I'd be using it for FCS, Shake, and the Adobe suite.

keep in mind, dual cores almost 2 years old now, and yes, there are programs that use that kind of processing power, the idea of dual processors has been around a long time, i remember helping mike build one 10 years ago
most of the programs are graphical or modeling programs, but theres a push to start in with games as well
