Well it's time for a new major computer shift in my office because I just got a new Core2Duo machine to replace my main master Dell Intel Dual Core computer. Everything's gonna shift. I'm wondering if I should include the LBT Server in the shift? It could use something a bit better. A 1.6ghz Intel Dual Core with 2gb of DDR2 memory is fine but the computer that would replace it is MUCH better. If I were to replace the LBT Server computer, this is what I would replace it with:
*AMD Athlon 64 x2 5200+ 2.6ghz Processor
*3gb DDR2 800mhz Ram (will upgrade to 4gb since 32 bit can now address that much)
*500gb SATAII Hard Disk
*Windows Vista Home Premium SP2
*Lightscribe DVD-RW DL
*Integrated 24-in-1 card reader
It's A LOT better than the current LBT Server computer. I would turn the current LBT Server computer into my new download computer. But I have to ask myself if the LBT Server will actually be able to use that much power. I know I certainly could if I was using it as a download computer, but if I can make the LBT Server better, shouldn't I? *Sigh*. I don't know what I'm going to do yet. I also have another computer with identical specs to the one above except it's got a 4200+ 2.2ghz processor, but it has some issues with the fan. The fan is ticking like crazy and I'm afraid to leave it on 24/7. What do you guys think? Should I upgrade the LBT Server computer to the one above?
