LFC4EVER 4 Report post Posted June 22, 2009 yeah, that is one awesome setup but isn't it a bit overkill? Lol, i just realised you have 24 times the amount of RAM on my laptop. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also looked into a SSD Upgrade I got a little over 400GB of programs and games so i figured buying 2 256GB SSD's would be a good idea but i really dont want to spend $1,200 to do it here are the drive i would get and put them in a RAID 0 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820609395 I didn't look to see how much I can get them through work though might be able to scratch a few hundred off that.

drakaan 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2009 I'm actually training for web design in dreamweaver... Do yourself a favor...DreamWeaver is handy for putting stuff together quickly, but go through the trouble of actually learning [X]HTML and CSS. There are things that you can do by hand that you just can't do easily in a GUI (ask Rick and everyone who mentions that the PdN forms don't load in visual studio). If you've just started training for web design, then while you learn, remember that not everyone has the same screen as you, or even working eyes. Find out about accessibility (http://fae.cita.uiuc.edu/) and validation (http://validator.w3.org), and why they matter. Learn what tables are for (displaying tabular data in rows and columns), and what they're *not* for (slicing a page up into boxes to do layout). Learn about caching, CSS, and how bandwidth for a page/app/site are affected by proper use of each... Just my 2 cents... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sozo 22 Report post Posted July 4, 2009 That's fairly similar to what mine is going to be. Currently I have a Phenom 9550 (runs a 2.2 ghz, but I OC'ed it to 2.6, in desperation), 4 gig's of DDR2, some Biostar mobo (performance was mediocre), a Radeon 4850 512mb, and several hard drives. I'm going to upgrade this summer to either a Phenom II 940 or 945, 6ish gigs of ram, another 4850 (1 gig, hopefully), and a Gigabyte motherboard.
