Hey guys, I'm fianlly back on blockland. Marching Band is over and I have a lot of more free time now. WOOT!

Lucky, my marching band season ends in a few more weeks.

Hm, I am stuck in a pickle....

Do I want a fun ITX socketA system with FSB400 and 1GB RAM (2GB maybe)

OR...

An ATX Dual P3 1.4-S with 4GB PC100?

I cant decide!!! They are both about the same price.... The former is rarer, and potentially more fun, but the latter is better for BL and uses alot of power...

the latter is better for BL

Decision made. :cookieMonster:

Every few months it seems you get a new computer or upgrade an existing one. What do you do with all the old parts?

he eats them

Wow, you are so right. I eat them.

And then my poop hurts. Microchips, apparently, dont digest well... Same with PCB.

Haha but the ITX board is soooooo cool :-D

Its like....
Column A:
ITX is very small... I like small!! Portsble would be very cool, LAN party monster as I am.
Portable computer, AGP graphics (And I have a BFG 6800 unlocked... mmmm)
Fastest processor
Fast RAM, low quantity (I'd prolly have only a GB right now) buit its DDR400

Column B:
Server board... Sweet
Dual P3 is OK... Very powerful, maybe on par with the ITX for my server use (crunching anyways)
4GB RAM is awesome, but RAM is slow (PC100... But I have about 10GB of it, incl 6x1GB PC100 ECCREG)
Minimal graphics expandability (but I do have an FX5500 256MB DDR PCI)
Onboard SCSI RAID... And I have a quadruplicate of 18GB 10k drives....

I would like to say BL is my #1 priority for this server but I dont play much anymore... And I pay my own electric bill... And PC arent known for being budget friendly.... Servers especially!

The ITX system would be far more energy effecient, but perhaps less performance....

On a side note, maybe I should take a picture of my room, I have about $10k in just goodies all over the place :-P Older stuff, but some is QUITE rare, including a triplicate of $100 P3 boards, and that giant heap of PC100 ECCREG and my might octo-Xeon monstrosity I cant use without dimming the lights :-P

im sry but ur ding it rong!!!!!!!!


i declar illidan cln leder now


tis clan is no wunder teh name of teh nuevo -'- clan!


What is he, retarted? Mentally exausted?

I purchased that lovely dual p3 serverboard, and I have my RAM, case and processors wating :-D Did I also mention RAID5 with 4x36GB 10Ks from my Xeon server? :-D Mmmm I dont know if I'll use em, tho. Maybe just one 10k drive is good.

Hahah awesome. Does this mean we'll have a dedi server soon so we can do USSR city 2?


AHHHHHHHH! It's on the second page! Bumped back before people wonder where it went.

I think I can hear the sound of 'win' echoing all the way from New York.

Dual P3 server board is in the mail :-D Say hello to a new USSR!!

So we're going to have a server back up?
