Dell T3500

Quote from Scataphagos:

BFD.... not necessary for trading. Dell does not allow overclocking so their support doesn't have to deal with noobs screwing up their rig.... at least on this issue. Everybody with half a brain already knows this. If you want to overclock, get something besides a Dell.

The fact that "Dells don't overclock" in no way diminishes their value or competence.

it is a big deal.. getting most bang out your buck. maybe you good with sub-par performance for your dollar. you aint much a trader witht hat attitude :confused:

You've shown yourself to be a DUMBASS!

You obviously don't bother to think... rather just regurgitate bilge you picked up somewhere...

You're now added to my lonnnng list of ignores.

Why do you so smugly say that? XP's going to be supported until at least 2014. Post sounds correct.

Not being smug, self-critical actually... you missed my point. I remember when I opened my biz in the 1980's... i upgraded from a 20 KB hard drive to 40 KB hard drive... I thought "better to spend the extra money now & never have to upgrade" :p

5 years is a long time in Techland.

Yes, it is. But there won't be any NEED to upgrade for 5 years with current hardware, software, and OS.

I too am planning to run XP into '14, or later.

But the FACT of the matter is that current rigs like the Precision T3400 are MORE THAN ENOUGH to handle today's trading software and execution platforms.

You act as if the trading/charting software that is being "written" out there is highly sophisticated and evolving in leaps and bounds that won't be able to be handled by a currnet Intel processor.

Overclocking for a trading rig???
Wow, now I've heard it all.

:D
