How many PC's do you crunch on?

[Ian]

I thought it may be interesting to see how many computers we crunch on, as we all know Ady has the Deep Blue super computer on the case

I've got on 2 PCs, although one of them is just a very slow server that I use in the flat to store Photos, MP3's etc.

Just the two ... the Old Girl & this one.

Do my best to keep The JMW PC tickin over.

Two.

I do have three machines, the third is inactive atm, built to be a multi-media machine but I can't get an image from it on my CRT TV.

So I either need to buy a flat screen TV with a PC input or buy a VGA to composite video converter.

1st option is about £600.00 but looks nice, 2nd option is about £80.00.

But I'm still thinking about it and in truth a little skint atm.

I waffled on a bit there, didn't I? So, in short - two.

Just the one beast at the moment, althought I am trying to get one of my other machines back online!

A few more weeks I reckon ...

Does it take PCI or AGP cards? If so you can get really cheap graphics cards with TV out now

I use:
1 x HP Proliant ML530 - P3 2 x 833 Mhz/768MB RAM
1 x HP Proliant ML370 - P4 Xeon 4 x 2.40 Ghz/2GB RAM
1 x HP Proliant ML370 - P4 Xeon 2 x 2.80 Ghz/2GB RAM
1 x HP DV4000 Laptop - P4 Centrino 1.73 Ghz/1GB RAM
1 x HP EvoD330 Desktop - P4 Northwood 1.80 Ghz/2GB RAM
1 x HP EvoD330 Desktop - P4 Northwood 2.40 Ghz/2GB RAM
1 x HP EvoD330 Desktop - P4 Northwood 2.80 Ghz/1.5GB RAM
1 x Homebuild Desktop- P4 Northwood 3.75 Ghz/1.5GB RAM (3.4 o/c)

So... 8!

Just the 4800 dual core at the mo. Had a couple more 'part timers' for a bit, but no longer.

AGP. It doesn't have to be High Spec, there's an XFX Nvidia FX5700LE with 128Mb in there atm.

I tried every converter lead and TV input imaginable to try and get an image but all I got was a frozen image of the desktop. Very frustrating. I would guess it doesn't have TV out, it's not mentioned in the manual.

I have a 9800 Pro spare but I'm not sure it would fit, there's not a lot of room in the case. And I'm not even sure offhand whether that has TV out or not.

Anyways, I'm going off topic here, I may start a new thread about this machine
