Custom Mastercam PC Build

[Jeremy Herron@DBS Solutions™]

Come on Jermey we can both buy one now. are you ready buddy?

 

lol. What the heck, it is a write off.

[Rotary Ninja]

I am trying to coerce him into it Jeremy by offsetting some of the cost and buying his 3820

[Jayson Kramer]

@ Jeremy, yes it is. I have all ready racked up over $7000.00 in computers and software sense the beginning of the year. I need to stop here somewhere. lol

 

@Kevin, If I do get one this week I will save you some money.

[Matthew Hajicek - Singularity]

I gotta ask, are you using a ramdrive?

 

No, I'm using an SSD. Adding a hardware ramdrive card would be nice though, it would be a good place for paging files. Doesn't look like anyone makes them anymore though; might as well just add some SSDs in RAID 0 if you can't add more RAM directly.

Ya I was asking of the ram drive cause of the memory usage you were using. I thought if you had a ram drive, that would explain your high memory use. Those must be some pretty intensive models to get that much memory use.

They're basically mold blocks that consist of nothing but ribs:

Hey ninja that's a pretty cool build up on the front of this thread.

 

Only thing different I would do is get rid of the liquid cooling Put it all in a full size Tower.

 

I like to put fans on the bottom of my hard drive also.

 

Since I don't want to overclock for longevity I will probably just put the best CPU I could get In there.

 

Things never change... 2500 bucks is been the going price of a computer system since I bought my very first 286.

 

But your money get your real good computer these days...

I don't overclock either. But that board would make it easy to do so. I am actually considering the Sabertooth motherboard because I can get it for a pretty good deal from Fry's. I'll probably go pick that up this weekend. Then all I need is my CPU and I am ready to build it. I plan to document the whole build so anyone on here who has never done it can see how easy it is to build a PC. I can't wait to run some benchmarks on it.

[Jeremy Herron@DBS Solutions™]

My build has been overclocked from day 1 and it has been stable for 3 years. I do monitor my temps religiously though. I am hoping to finish my list and start shopping this weekend. I will post my components and get opinions before I do though.

[gcode]

Now looking at the 3970X 3.5 extrem. I know I am crazy.

Ya its a whole lot easier than it used to be.

back in the day you had to be careful which parts you put with which.

some CDROM drives wouldn't work with certain hardware, IRA conflicts, memory timing issues,

BIOS incompatibility.....the list is long.

 

 

It costs a bit more to build them yourself but you get a better computer.

 

I once bought a DELL system and the cheapa$$ front panel power button broke

in two months. Had to send my CD drive back on an Acer 3 times. CRT failed and they replaced it...when the motherboard popped, I packed it up and took it to FRY's and threw such a fit, they let me pick one of the same value off the shelf.

 

Ever since then I built my own and never looked back.

[Rotary Ninja]

We bought 3 identical Dell PC's. They are all Optiplex's. The one I got the front USB hub didn't work at all. Another had a catastrophic hard drive failure a month later.

 

I have built my own PC's since before Dell was the company they are now. For the money, you can build a PC with much better parts for the same money you would pay for a Dell.

That is were I got my MB and Ram and CPU soon to be your CPU from. May go there this morning . don't tell gcode he things I have a problem. lol

Are you getting the military Spec one. it come with a 5 year warranty cert. this what I have. Really nice board for sure.

[Jayson Kramer]

I have had good luck with the dells. most of mine have been dell precision workstations. we have two optiplexs one was my wife's and the other for the TV in the living room both work great. I retired the wifes last year and gave here a hand built one. I7-3.2 quad core 1155 chipset, 12 gigs of corsair ram , H80i cooler, Asus MB, cool Master case , 150 raptor 10,000 rpm drive and a Nviida GTX 550.

 

this weekend putting in a SSD and my two Quadro FX 4600 in SLI and another 12 gigs of ram for her.

[Jayson Kramer]

Ok I cheeped out and got a 3930K after all and got a Intel 520 180gb SSD today.

[Jeremy Herron@DBS Solutions™]

I am sorely disappointed sir, we will be expecting your computerholic chip at the next meeting.

[Jayson Kramer]

Ok buddy but I expect you right next to me.

[Jeremy Herron@DBS Solutions™]

I will be there wearing the hat of shame after I finish this build.

[Jayson Kramer]

The Hat of Shame OH NO what are you building? you have to share you know it right.

What is wrong with what you have now? or you feeling the need for SPEED?

[Jeremy Herron@DBS Solutions™]

Lol. I will finish specing everything out this weekend or early next week and post it before I buy anything. I have budgeted around 7k. The rig in my sig is actually my old work system, I gave it to my protégé when I left to start my business so I know it is in good hands. I have been running my company off my laptop which I will upgrade after I get my desktop built. Business is good, so I need the write-offs, and since I work for myself, time is my money.

[Jayson Kramer]

Jermey, I am wilh you on this I had 8 grand in computer software last year. did a great year last year.. I know you are doing what I do if I am correct Contract Consulting?

Your budget is nice for a new rig is this include monitors and so on?

[Rotary Ninja]

Hmm. $7,000. What would I do with $7,000? Hmm. How about the EVGA Classifed build I have been drooling over for a few months. Please build it and let us know how much drool is on your desk after seeing it in action.

So you are thinking of running Raid 10 and using two SSD aside of two HDD compared to 4 SSD's and why these Intel over thousand dollar SSD compared to the say the 520 series?
