Now if they would just hurry up and make SATA 5, PCI-E 4.0 X64 with a 1000 core CPU - we may be able to make some terminators , a T1000 ?? Hopefully not made by Lenovo

Or you could use notepad or Excel ( if you wanted to stick to Excel ) and only make a note of the persons edugeek handle or name and what number they picked ( first number only ) and ignore any other numbers they posted ? An we shall call it "Al List"

I need a bunch of minions to assist / aid in making a working one If you can supply those then sure As in yellow minions as per the movie - so look similar to this :

Going by this comment - can me and Carl get one item each lol

Knocked Over ----> If that is too cartoony then how about this ( using a sniper ) -->

So about £2,000 or a bit more then , would you need to upgrade the PSU if you are sticking two titans in there ?

Thanks @Arthur Not allowing me to give rep * mumble mumble *

When you can't see the price, generally you can't afford it. So what's the damage on one of those fully configured with two GTX Titans , 32gb RAM etc etc etc

More a work station than a desktop pc ? When you say hex cores - which CPU's are you talking about ? Xeon E5 or similar ?

As above depends what you are trying to do, obviously if trying to use SLI Gfx cards then you would most likely have to get 2 SSD's and could put them in RAID 0 ( just for the OS ) and then for important data place that onto a NAS or onto other drives whether they were in RAID Config or not etc It's a Shame they don't have four PCI-E 2.0 X16 Slots so you can SLI Graphics cards ( 2 or possibly 3 ) and the fourth for a PCI-E SSD or if you only have 2 graphics cards then could also use a PCI-E 2.0 X16 for a RAID 6gbps SAS / SATA Card etc Unless you can get a PCI-E Expander or some way of getting more slots etc as don't understand how they expect you to get all this stuff into one PC to make an awesome PC No way of some how connecting two motherboards together so you could make use of all the PCI-E Slots between the two motherboards lol

Not checked PC motherboards for a long time but in the Mac Pro's ( not the latest one ) they have had about 2 or 3 PCI E slots, so you could effectively have one PCI-E X16 graphics card and then one slot for the PCI-E SSD ?? Anyway - never had enough money to buy 2 decent graphics cards, a PCI E SSD and the other stuff Think you would need to install the above aformentioned PCI-E SSD into an X8 slot otherwise like you said it will work a lot slower ( which defeats the object of getting it in the first place )

Link to one PCI-E Card which uses PCI-E 2.0 (x8) --> Asus ROG Raidr Express 240GB PCI Express SSD Legacy and UEFI BIOS Ready - RAIDR Express SSD - Scan.co.uk Read and Write on the above card is around the 800mbps region vs a SATA 3 SSD which only gives about 500mbps read and write. The above card is stated at the 100,000 IOPS vs say the Samsung 840 pro which is meant to be about 100,000 IOPS as well Just as an example - I've not tried to install one of these with a graphics card or more than one Graphics card ie SLI etc so not sure Like you say depends on what you are trying to do, I think the PCI-E SSD cards are prolly better for when using photoshop as you can use it for placing your scratch file on / use it for the OS Paging file etc ?

As long as the PCI-E slot is at min x4 or x8 ( x8 would be better ) then it should get enough bandwidth vs SATA 3 which only gives you about 500mbps read or write. I think the PCI-E gives you 1gbps read / write so a bit faster.

PCI-E X16 SAS / SATA 6Gbps RAID Card - RAID about 4 or more SATA 6gbps SSD's up, get one PCI-E SSD, SLI A few decent graphics cards together so GTX 780 Ti or GTX Titans together, buy a 60 inch or larger 4K HD Telly as the monitor or maybe a HD Projector and then some controllers and plenty of RAM etc etc Then a QNAP or similar NAS for storage ...

Can I have the SSD and you can keep the GFX card that he throws in lol

That's soooo Al @VeryPC

My 2 year old ( Hayden ) was having a bath playing with the toy, throwing the balls into the hoop etc ...... Didn't know if it was appropriate to post them publicly or not, was just checking

Not that it is a number or a 2nd guess etc but the 404 error reminded me of this :

iPhone 5S 64gb - kettering store totally mucked it all up so have to pay £50 pcm and can't get out of the contract as it's been set to a business contract, don't even ask as narked me off when they did it and they can't cancel it unless I paid over £1000 which I aint gonna do as don't have that kind of money * walks away swearing profusely !!! *

Can't afford anymore money on my mobile contract at the min, I pay nearly £50pcm as it is ( that is mostly due to the handset I have ). When I know I can get 4G coverage where I live and where I work then I will fork out the extra and go from there

I've not had the text either but am guessing that is due to not getting 4G coverage in my area for quite a while longer !! Sigh !!

Thanks for the update / feedback, may help someone else in the future

I only travel between Northampton and my house so not very often I go to area's with 4G coverage unless they are gonna give Northampton area coverage. May pay the extra for 4G if 1.) I get those speeds at home 2.) The signal improves at my home address 3.) 4G provides better coverage etc both in doors and out.

@HaleStorm - you been with 02 for long or was it just that you are based in or around Sheffield and that they have upgraded there 4G network in that area and that is why you have now gotten 4G for free ? I currently only pay for 3G as don't get 4G in my area

Yay. Got it. Was delivered to next door. Not sure if i can post the pics on public forum. Can email them if ya interested :-)
