Nice system. A few questions if I may.


1. Price breakdown? I pressume all parts are retail?
2. Why the Ati card on the platform you chose? x1600, x1600pro, or x1600xt?
3. Why Platinum over Performance RAM? No plans to overclock?
4. I pressume the RAID5 is from the onboard silicon controller? How was setup? Does it seem stable? Did the Java applet get better since 2005? Simulated a failure yet before you load 'er up with pr0n? With what hard drive brand?


Thanks.

Thanks, but why did ya choose an Ati card on a SLI setup? Have you tried simulating a hd failure while using the Java applet? Thanks again for any answers.
