Correction: Strike out the above.

Use the saved money to send 1 case of Corona to tiki, 1 case of (whatever-he-likes) to Scataphagos, and 2 cases of Corona to Boli.

Hi guys,

Do you guys have any ideal in term of performance, using i7 2600K processor to built a high end desktop will be better than built a Workstation using Xeon processor with 2 CPU for platform like Multichart ?

I know I posted to this already but there was a reply on the MC forums that you may be interestd in.

This is from Stan Bokov at MC staff. These guys at TSSupport are really great. They post constantly throughout the day answering tons of questions.
If you are not in the discussion forums at Multicharts you should start to read all you can.

I had some high write issues when using the OCZ SSD for browsers.
I spoke to the techs over at OCZ and they reccomended upgraded to the latest firmware for the SSD.

Also posts I have read around in forums my experience was not unique.
Others were speaking of the upgrade in firmware can resolve these issues.

So first I needed to findout what firmware I had on the ssd.

Start/control panel/ device manager/ disk drives/ OCZ Agilty/right click and open properties/details tab/property/ hardware ID

I had v 2.06 and needed to update to 2.09


First an iso file from the OCZ site had to be installed on a USB stick

Then enter the bios settings and boot from the USB stick.
You cannot upgrade the firmware directly to the ssd if the OS is on the SSD. The SSD is not selected for boot and the boot order must be the USB first with the iso file.

Once booted follow these instructions

http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/f...and-Ibis-SSD-s&p=643363&viewfull=1#post643363

that I have previously posted.

Follow all instructions until upgrade is complete and a boot from windows can be done.

Go back to the properties of the SSD that I showed in beginning of post and check the hardware id for the firmware version.

Successfully upgraded to v. 2.09 :cool:

I installed a small fan to circulate air conditioning a little better in the room.
CPU temps have dropped quite a few . It is running super smooth. Coolmaster hyper cooler is doing its job well !

Just for fun here is a Jing video of basic default Multicharts 7. It is the two default workspaces with six charts each, and indicators on each chart.
I will close and reopen Multicharts a couple times so you can see how quickly the task is done.
Multicharts is very fast to launch with this build.
