    Penryn system build - what can I buy now?

    I think you misunderstood. I build systems all the time, budget/parts/useage are all things that I'm capable of handling myself. Additionally, I already answered some of the questions you posted. The machine will be used to handle CG applications, rendering, and light compositing. I probably...

    Penryn system build - what can I buy now?

    I work for a computer graphics studio that has recently seen a lot of success and popularity with the commercial and ride simulator industry. As we continue to grow (and I continue to get increased wages), I find myself wanting my own workstation. As the person who's been at the studio the...

    8800GTS 1980x1080?

    We're trying to figure out whether we'll be able to output HD Stereoscopic Projection, but in order to do this, we'd need to be able to output 1980 over two displays. Is the 8800GTS capable of this resolution?

    Quadro FX 3000

    Anyone know if the Quadro FX 3000 output a resolution of 3840 x 1080? Want to know before I buy the dual HD projector setup for stereoscopic use.

    Computer Graphics Q6600 Build

    Thanks for the suggestion on the PSU. And regarding the RAM, I hear you, I've always bought Corsair or Crucial and they're sort of lacking in the neck of the woods I'm shopping in. Since I've at least heard of OCZ, I'll probably end up going with them.

    Computer Graphics Q6600 Build

    Still looking for recommendation on RAM and a confirmation that the Enermax PSU is a good one.

    Computer Graphics Q6600 Build

    I appreciate all the responses. Regarding the Mac Pro - it's something I *hadn't* thought of, honestly, but I can still beat it's price point and I don't need OSX. The above will probably run $2700 after the $500 video card and shipping, and it simply nails the $2500 Mac Pro to the floor...

    Computer Graphics Q6600 Build

    Was hoping to get some feedback on a machine I'm building for the head of my CG studio. I don't know a whole lot about the Intel side of the fence, but it's obvious that's where to go now. He's got a big budget and says "He doesn't want to worry about needing to buy another machine for at...

    Come on apple, ship my MBP!

    I'm selling my two month old Macbook Pro 2.33 w/ 2GB of ram and the upgraded 160GB hard drive for $2175. I'll include a brand new 60GB iPod Photo for an additional $175 (going to have it replaced under warranty, was just going to ebay the replacement). The reason I'm selling is because I'm...

    Where to sell Macbook Pro?

    I'm going to definitely post this here, but I was hoping fellow Mac users could point me in the right direction for selling my 2 month old Macbook Pro. As someone in the computer animation industry, the addition of a Geforce 8 Mobile series is just too tempting and I'm looking to sell my...

    Sony RB40 Motherboard replacement

    Does the power button typically have a ground as well, or am I just going to be looking for a single pin? I think I have a pretty good idea of which of the pins is the power, but if I'm right that means there's only one pin, not two.

    Sony RB40 Motherboard replacement

    This, to me, is the most undesirable type of hardware work. Replacing the motherboard in a computer made by a major manufacturer. In this case, a Sony Vaio VGC-RB40. I ordered an Asus P5L-VM and have everything installed fine (I think, anyway), but the front panel connectors to the Vaio...

    Problem with Dual DVI KVM Switch

    So I just bought a DVI KVM switch for dual displays to two different computers. It's controlling two Chimei 22" wide displays and they're going to two machines which both have QuadroFX cards. The KVM brand is Linkskey, it's the one of two KVMs for this purpose on Newegg. The problem I'm...

    KVM Switch for Dual Widescreen DVI?

    Thanks for your helpful answer SethK. In response to the other two, the debate as to whether we're going to be using a KVM or not is not a question that's up for answering. This is an environment where such a device is absolutely necessary, and it has to accomodate two widescreen LCDs going...
