Thank you very much for your response Keif! So when you say dual xeons you mean to separate processors, right?
I'm looking at a setup from dell with two 3.2GHZ Xeon processors, Nvidia QuadraFX 3450, 2GB Ram and two 250GB SATA drives. How does that sound? It's a Precision 670 by the way. - www.boxmod.net ----- Original Message ----- From: "keif_leaf" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, January 23, 2006 10:15 PM Subject: [AP] Re: Dual core or two processors? > Hey Sune, > I didn't see a reply to this, so I'll tell you what I can.
