Hello,
I have made the configuration below for an "office workstation" dedicated to developers / testers.
Requirements:
- possibility to upgrade to 16 gigs of ram, now will have only 4 gigs, possibly will have a quad processor in the future
- intensively use of the CPU
- HDD as fast as possible as frequent acces to the drive will be made
- many parallel applications
- Maximum quietness, as silent as possible, you can not have in an office 10-15 of such machines if they are not silent
- Wireless network
- 2 monitors
Find below the configuration, any opinion will be appreciated:
Case with Power Supply Antec SONATA III 500 EC, 500W
Intel Core2 Duo E7400 2.8GHz, socket 775, box
Cooler - Akasa AK 965
Motherboard DFI LP-DK-P45-T3RSB-Plus, socket 775
Dual Channel Memory Kit Corsair 4GB (2 x 2 GB) DDR3, 1333MHz
Video Leadtek WinFast PX9500 GT 512MB GDDR3 128bit, Dual Dual-Link DVI, HDTV-Out, PCI-E
HDD Western Digital VelociRaptor 300GB, 16MB, SATA2
Linksys WMP54G Wireless Adapter, PCI, 802.11g
DVD-RW Asus 20B1LT 20x, LightScribe, Black + Silver, Retail
Vista Business 64, OEM
Wired Keyboard, Optical Mouse - Microsoft kit
LCD Monitor x 2 pcs Samsung 2243NW 22''
Doubts:
- Does the video card supports 2 dvi monitors and passive cooling (for quietness)
- Is the Motherboard enough in the "business" category? I think is a motherboard for gamers, however I would like something similar in terms of 4 slots, 16 Gigs, DDR3, 775 soket
- Is it silent enough, you can suggest something more silent (cooler, case, power suppy) ...
- any general improvements?
Thank you very much for your opinions or suggestions for improvements.
