Je reprends la dream machine du site d'axcel216 ( http://members.aol.com/axcel216/ )
4. This is my idea of THE IDEAL computer system optimally tuned to run Windows
9x/NT/2000/ME/XP/etc [... and maybe Trillennium ], or ANY other OS [BeOS
anyone?!] for that matter [to date], if money is not an obstacle. :-)
When it comes to the amount of RAM, hard disk capacity/speed, 2D/3D video
accelerator performance, CD/DVD drive speed, Internet access performance,
sound card high fidelity, and most importantly CPU class and speed, NOTHING IS
TOO MUCH for running today's 32-bit [and tomorrow's 64-bit] demanding
3D/OpenGL/DirectX graphics/animation/multimedia applications and games:
- Quad SMP Intel Pentium IV Xeon MMX/SSE2 3 GHz 2 MB L2 cache CPUs, server
full size tower case (10 external open bays) with 1 MB 4 nanosec SRAM on-chip
Level 2 pipeline sync burst cache for each CPU, and 1 MB (or more) 4 ns Level
3 off-chip SRAM cache;
- make sure your motherboard chipset supports at least 200, 266, 300, 333 and
400 MHz external bus (FSB) 128-bit data path speeds;
- Intel AGP-8x (Accelerated Graphics Port version 8 at 720 MHz frquency and
532 MB/sec bandwidth using Fast Writes and Side Banding) video controller
interface;
- 2 GB of parity 4 ns 198pin DDR333 SDRAM, CAS 1 (1/1/1), 400 MHz 256-bit
data path, with enhanced error correction (ECC), 0 wait state memory chips;
- And if you want a true multitasking/multithreading, [almost 100% ] safe,
true 32-bit Operating System, then get MS Windows XP/.Net Advanced Server or
your favorite Linux distro [finally say NO to DOS, that is unless you don't
still play "fancy" 3D/SVGA DOS games ], or go for the new BeOS 5.0 Free
Edition, real-time SMP, Intel X86 compatible [wow!];
- RAID 0-5 dual PCI PI/O Mode 6 Ultra ATA/100 Bus Master EIDE motherboard
controller (100 MB/sec transfer rate);
