Yes, I got a quote long time ago & what they are doing is put a card with 1 to 4 MVMe on that card & insert it in x8 slot if you choose 1 or 2 NVMe & if you choose 3 or 4 then they insert it in x16 slot. They call it Ultra speed SSD. Then you have a choice of having 2 NVMe in front of chassis...

Hi Scat & everyone. Really appreciate your help. This is in continuation with my previous thread. Since I have to go back to 5820 with Xeon W-2235, 16 GB DDR4, 2933MHz RAM, 3 x NVIDIA T-600, does NVMe SSD help in anyway with charting application that stores tick data in application folder on...

Hi Scat Thank you for the help. Since I have to go back to 5820 with Xeon W-2235, 16 GB DDR4, 2933MHz RAM, 3 x NVIDIA T-600, does NVMe SSD help in anyway with charting application that stores tick data in application folder on C: drive & I have to very often reconstruct Random Tick charts from...

Scat, tried & tried finding specs for 3660 especially how many full length slots are there before posting here & came across a pdf that has a confusing specs that I posted as below : ● One PCIe x16 Gen5 (discrete graphics card only) ● One PCIe x4 Gen4 ● One PCIe x4 Gen3 This shows only one x16...

Thanks Scat & all. I was thinking in terms of 5820 getting outdated soon. Also heard that NVMe are great for OS booting time & may be good for tick charts ? 3660 has 3 slots for NVMe. What can you tell from following in 3660 pdf ? Are they x16 full length ? Asking because they let you...

Hi all. Let me start with a Thank you for reading my post. I am using 10 year old Dell T-7500 with 12 monitors using outdated ATI Fire Pro 2460 graphic cards ( 512 MB, each runs 4 monitors ) with 12 GB RAM. I was considering Dell workstation 5820 couple of years ago with Xeon W-2235 ( OR i-9...

Let me explain my needs & may be you can suggest what I need from hardware point of view. My software stores the tick data in one of it's folders on C: drive during market hours. I need random tick charts. ( e.g 500t, 1700t, 3000t, 7000t upto 25000t ). The software builds those tick charts...

The boot drive & my trading software is going to be on M.2 256 GB PCIe NVMe Class 40 Solid State Drive Isn't that the one doing all the work ? Others are just the storage drives.

Price & Passmark i9 = $580.00 ( Passmark - 22683 ) Xeon = $ 730.00 ( Passmark - 19288 ) My question is which has better performance when it comes to using tick charts ?

Hi, In July I put together Dell 5820 workstation with following specs & many of you helped me then. But due to some circumstances I did not buy it then. Then i9 was not offered by Dell only Xeon, but now they do. So the question now is which is better ? ( With i9 they do not offer ECC memory )...

Huyang, I had to wait due to circumstances. But I sure will.

" Perhaps the board would like to hear from you when you get your new rig running... to let us know how it performs in your "high demand" task." Sure will Scat & again my sincere Thanks to all of you.

Thank you Scat. That clears up everything. Really appreciate it.

Scat, everything you said about buying base unit from Dell & then upgrading by buying components elsewhere makes sense from economical point of view. But, Dell is smarter than all of us. If you buy additional components somewhere else, you are not covered if something goes wrong & they have a...

Thank you Scat. TF = Time Frame 3000T = 3000 ticks Basically I am using say an ES chart with a time frame of 3000 ticks ( Meaning it takes 3000 ticks to make One bar ) The software graphs as well as archives data. So I usually have one symbol say ES with say 1000 tick chart on one monitor...

So good to hear from you Scat. I always admire your in-depth knowledge & am excited to learn more about T-5820 since you owned one. Here are some questions : (1) I am ordering 3x 2TB HDD in front flex bays hoping that I will be able to use my old 3 TB HDD in them which has historical data. Am...

Data is stored locally in a folder in the app itself. App is installed in C: drive.

Hi, First I am very grateful to all of you who have helped me in past with my Dell T-7500 workstation. I have been using Dell T-7500 Workstation with following Config for almost 8 years & I was considering buying newer Dell 5820 about 2 years ago but many of you suggested that I really didn’t...

I run eSignal for charting and analysis. Besides that some web pages, sometimes streaming news or videos & couple of word docs.

Since Xeon W series & Xeon ( Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze ) series are two different platforms, which one is better for technical analysis & trading ? Also does the number of cores make difference & if yes, how much better is 6 or 8 cores compared to 4 cores for our purpose ?
