    iRam Questions

    First off, I have digested Anand's article on this topic. Here's my twist: I'm building a new system with 4x Raptor 150's in a RAID 0+1 array. If I use a 4 GB iRAM as a paging file for XP Pro, will it not be more efficient than not having a 5th drive for the paging file, since accessing the...

    RAID 0+1 performance

    One other thing. In reviewing the benchmarks, I see that CPU usage is always < 5% during array activity. Would that be a definitive concern of software RAID vs. Hardware ? The FX-60 should have enough horsepower to handle that without hiccups, should it not ?

    RAID 0+1 performance

    Interesting alternatives. To clarify, I do intend to have XFire on two X1900XTX's and the reason that I chose 2 gig of RAM is that I have "heard" that 4 GB cannot be seen by Windows in its entirety on a 32-bit OS. Also, using 4x 1 GB sticks allegedly will run only single channel at a 2T command...

    RAID 0+1 performance

    I'm referring mainly to gaming applications. I have an unfortunate history of having failed drives in RAID 0, thus losing the whole ball of wax. I've tried Casper XP to " ghost " the RAID 0 array to a third disk and it actually worked one time, but I'm looking for better than single-drive...

    RAID 0+1 performance

    Has anyone seen a comparison of HDD controllers that show performance benchmarks strictly using RAID 0+1 arrays ?

    Running 4Gb of memory

    I am also quite curious. Has anyone actually seen memory benchmarks run comparing 2GB vs. 4GB in dual-channel mode ? There are different programs out there that do this but I've not seen real numbers.

    Running 4Gb of memory

    Thank you very much. I knew this was the place to find the facts ;)

    Running 4Gb of memory

    Lets say that I am looking to spec a new system with a FX-57 and a board that supports 4 Gb of dual channel memory. Most top end boards claim support for this and I'm planning to use this machine primarily for gaming ( EQ2 and UT2004 mainly ). I see little mention on forums for this...
