Every now and then I wonder about dust inside the case since I NEVER open it

probably if I will, I will find ONLY dust and nothing else

Nice system you got there my Athlon XP 1700+ is more and more old

Nice computer you have there, I've been wanting to build myself a new one. I wonder when I will decide I have enough time though.

Really, once you have it, you don't want to miss it anymore. If you have to work on a computer with just a single screen it's hell
So true !!!

Yep I keep meaning to post my desktop cho as revenge for you torturing me with your wonderful avatar...I have a CD that was sent to me with my monitors that contains various desktops for 2 - 4 screen systems...or I think you can download them from here...

damn that's some dusty shit. i'm sure my computer is in desperate need of a dusting but i don't feel confident enough in myself to take the casing apart without fucking the whole thing up. isn't it a delicate procedure? i wouldn't want anybody taking a screwdriver to my system except a professional.

but if i ever took it apart though, my the wonders we would discover in there. i'm guess we'll find cockroach colonies and small farms of little people and an abandoned parking lot with two hookers

I cant say many good things about it so far...except for the case that looks very mean....I am hoping I have just been unlucky with it.

What things I use my PC for do you mean ?

Ahh ok...I thought you meant web hosting...as some people seem to think JW is hosted from my own private PC or something.

The 4 GHZ overclocked processor encodes a 60 min video into DIVX in about 20 minutes and that is pretty good going IMO....not sure what results you would get from a dual processor setup but remember not all software is optimized for dual processors.

Its neo trace by the looks of it that I use myself.

My PC was built here by so called "experts" they suggested going for the single processor route.
