All right, why not.

200 GB WD Caviar 7200 rpm 8.something ms seek time. I keep my music, movies, and other crap on here.

Both drives have aluminum heatsinks and dual 60mm fans.

Antec NeoPower 480W PSU. I love this thing.

LG 16x DVD+/-RW/RAM

Thermaltake SViking case with dual 120mm fans (1 intake 1 exaust)

LED fans and blue liquid neon cold cathode.

Currently running Windows XP Pro SP2 (on the raptor) and Linux Mandrake 10.1 (on a 20 gb partition of the Caviar). I'm thinking about trying XP 64 bit.

I think this processor could go faster if I had better cooling. I'm trying to decide which I want more, a water cooling kit and another 6600GT to SLI, or an X2 4400+. I could afford one or the other, but not both. :p Any opinions?

Anyway thats my system. I almost feel n00bish for posting this, but hey, what good is a nice PC if you can't brag a bit now and then? Thanks for listening, lol.

Peace,

Pete Zaria.

Dave - your config is almost exactly like mine, with two exceptions:

AMD Athon64 "Clawhammer" 4000+

Seagate ST380817AS 80GB SATA

eVGA nVidia GeForce6 6800GT PCI-E

Enermax 525w PSU

How did you get the info for your RAM Timings? I've been looking for the optimal settings ever since I put this box together. Thanks for posting those timings!

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.3 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display.
