In going through some of my older cast-off stuff, last night, I came upon an old "hybrid" PC I built back in the mid-2000's. I was doing a lot of freelance 3d modeling and FEA at the time, and wanted a new PC but couldn't afford TWO new PC's, so I put together a 3D hybrid PC, at least that's what I called it back then. It seemed like a good idea at the time, anyway.
Asrock 939Dual-SataII
Athlon FX-53
2GB RAM
WD 200GB SATAII HDD
BFG Geforce 7950gx2 PCIe(laughs!)
Wildcat Realizm 200 AGP 8x (for 3D CAD on a VP2290b)
Gigabyte i-RAM w/ 4GB (copied my models here)
BFG Physx card (laughs! -- some more)
1/2 a gamer and 1/2 a CAD machine, probably didn't do either very well in the grand scheme of things.
I robbed the case and other bits for other projects. Why do I have a hankerin' to fire this bad boy back up and load Vista64? I could now use the i-RAM as a Readyboost! 😀
Will pay $$$ for:
caching ISA I/O-IDE controller
PM me for my list of trade-ables...
