Crap I can't wait to get my pc back
My pc is broken
Friday, October 21, 2005 by eyeJ | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
This is the second time I visited my site for the past 3months
My pc is in a nonfunctional state right now. I am waiting for the graphic card, processor and RAM.
I got a 939 socket motherboard this weak and an Zalman Cu7000 cooler for the processor.
The rest of the new components will be:
Leadtek GeForce 6800GT
CrosairTwinx 1GB memory (2x 512)
Athlon 64 3000+ with Venice core and 90nm production process
Tagan TG680-U01 power supply
Finally I will be able to do more in Maya and such programs. My previous configuration was:
Asus socket A motherboard A7V266-C
512MB no name DDR PC2100 memory
ATi radeon vivo 7200 64MB DDR
AMD Athlon Thunderbird 1.2Ghz overcloced to 1.333Ghz
As u can see for today’s standards it is a office pc.
Problems of the K7 architecture were the chipsets made for it. They just didn’t have the needed bandwidth and speed. Memory latency was quite big also (controller on the motherboard)
And the second problem for me was the graphics card. Actually the problem to me was: no professional drivers.
When I put the new components together I will use the RivaTuner to unlock the Quadro inside the GeForce. And I will end up with a good DCC Workstation.
Quite cheep actually. Especially the graphic card. Quadro 3400 costs $$$$$$$.
I will be back in a week or so when I get this thing together. Se ya then fans
So a next skin is comming up before GUIOlympics. This time I aint missing it for the world. Last one i missed it because i uploaded my skin just before it started. this time i will not make the same mistake.
But before i start working ont the skin i will buy me one of those Wacom Inotus3 A4 thingies.
