Who has what kind of iron? - page 5

Valio >> :

the topic has gone from trying 'x' to puppy-dogging ))

a meaningless topic has been raised and picked up by amateurs

the sign of amateurism is no one says a word about the chipset...

hardware is probably more in line with your budget

I think it would be more useful to discuss reliability of the system

I'm an experienced hardware engineer and I know a thing or two about quality installation

for example for work (not for games) graphics card is better to have a passive heatsink

my case (chiftek dragon) has two side vents with dust meshes, i recommend

 
I put a three-dollar fan that blows diagonally inside the case, and that's it))

I mean a lot of people have the hardware to match their budget

X58 - if you didn't see above I wrote ...

i said there is no need in a very cool hardware for calculations and tests

something above average will suffice.

anyway no one here is an amateur ... Neither do you


---

everyone has their own vision - their own requirements - their own needs

the budget more often depends on professional skills (if you earn a living in the profession)

How much are you willing to pay for the hardware?

any pro always wants good iron

like in any profession every craftsman wants a good tool

but amateurs have no use for good iron


---

I might add that everyone chooses what is available to him

some can afford good iron - some can't

and I do not think it is appropriate to judge either one or the other

--

If someone has bought a Ferrari but can't drive it, for example in Russia, the roads won't allow it,

the ground clearance won't allow.

i agree - it's not wise to buy a ferrari without access to good roads

--

there are always criteria when buying machinery.

with a fairly expensive configuration

i nevertheless buy a simple and modest and inexpensive MSI U90 laptop

seemingly imbalanced - but this purchase has a purpose of its own

Reliability depends on how much you're willing to invest in it

Again it's all about affordability

reliability: e.g. put in a RAID-5 disk array

but I prefer to make a copy of the data.

UPS can also be considered reliable.

and if you need it, no RAID, no UPS.

I have no pretensions, so to speak, as I've never been a hardware expert. But I'll correct it for you: Intel chipset is G31+ICH7. The motherboard is budget too, but for now it's enough for my current needs.

Alexei, I think the author of the topic brought it up in order to understand what kind of hardware you need to

to work in the financial markets.

MT4 tester doesn't need 64bit hardware because there is no 64bit release from METAQUOTES

for MT4 it is enough 2-4 Gbytes of RAM and normal CPU

but tomorrow with MT5, maybe they will add a 64bit release

thats when it will make a difference

--

I bought my i7 as a multipurpose model ... for calculation and testing as well ...

I bought it with LINUX :-)

for my work with MT4 I have enough 4 gig of RAM on a 32bit platform ...

 
YuraZ >> :


2-4 Gbytes of RAM and a standard CPU are enough to work with MT4


Run it through liquid nitrogen (leave all wires in place ... and varnish the hardware with a special coating).

my friend has a duron 600 and 88 memory. it slows down... but it works :) as a server for bots :)

What kind of chipset I have dunno, haven't looked, seler-d 3.06 (775) 1.5 opera ( 800) for eyes... :)

reliability: for example put in a disk array RAID-5

but I prefer to make a copy of the data.

UPS can also be considered reliable.

and if you need it, you can't do it without RAID, UPS.


yeah, whatever with the chipset...

i even got called a dick by a timbo once and i'm not offended)

I have an ICH8R South Bridge

for the databases and stuff like that, i've got 4 x 7200rpm hard drives in the stripe

and for the hard drive and storage of important files 10k rpm hard drive (raptor)

in the cart 5 screws with two fans

just in case there is a backup at home hosting

backups are stored on my hosting just in case

strap is great for speed ( unfortunately if one of the screws dies)

Coolers 120mm 2 on the cart, 6 screws in the cart, the case has room for 4 more screws

the case is well ventilated, all cool is not warm at all - not a lot of hum

I7 CPU approx 40-60c - cooler is best and quietest as per reviews

baracuda cache 32mb terabyte couple, the rest in the strip

For now, 3 vinyls in strip, setup and adjustment is going probably will be 4 ...

SATA ports only 6 - didn't expect 6 sata ports - not enough

the idea is, strike for the base, work + swaps + various temporary data

--

two terrabyte hard drives

to store backups, snapshots, semen archive, various works, software and other things that require storage

have encountered a growing archive at home !

Many acquaintances for example have had cases of missing

photo archive gone missing for years!

I have not lost anything yet! i.e. a storage policy of at least 2 drives

---

ie two hard drives exclusively for full double data storage + backup to other media

total 2 x reserve data with a 3rd way

I can't think of a cheaper way to back up than to back up two or three different drives

in my opinion the cheapest backup! (all these tapes and even CDs etc. experienced a loss of the 2nd 3rd copy)

---

in terms of backing up data

2 - 3 copies on different drives is best way to back up

especially if one of the hard drives is then manually unplugged

and turn on occasionally to flash new data

---

No UPS yet, I don't plan RAID-5 - I don't see economic sense for home use

Nitrous, that would be redundant :-)

I'm fine with normal, non-extreme acceleration

According to reviews on the net it easily accelerates to around 4ghz without any extreme

Anybody have any experience with overclocking I7 ?

please share

I repeat the question: do these "better indices" show the real thing better than 50/50?

Show me one.

Especially for you. Compare the direction of the Zig-Zag with the bottom indicator. No 100% match with the zig-zag, but more than 50/50. I'll write the formula on a stamp, only its implementation won't fit on the stamp.
