Hey guys, I was given a pair of X5355's (ES), wasnt sure what to do at first, I decided.... and here is my plan. I already have a bunch of stuff (X5355's, 4GB, BFG 7800 Card, and Plextor drive), so
Here will be final system specs: (I basically just need to buy the HD's, Precision 690 Barebone Case, Heatsinks, Cables)
Dell Precision 690 Workstation Barebones (Mobo, Case & 1KW Power Supply)
Dual - Intel Xeon X5355 2.66GHz Quad Core 1333MHz FSB - 8MB L2 with OEM Dell - FD841 Heatsinks
BFG GeForce 7800 GT OC 256MB GDDR3- PCI Express x16
4GB - 2-DIMMS IBM 2GB (2x1GB) PC2-5300 CL5 ECC DDR2 Chipkill FB-DIMM
SAS FUJITSU 146GB 15K SAS 3.5in Hard Drive MAX3147RC (OS Drive)
SATA HITACHI Deskstar E7K500 3.0Gb/s - 500GB 7200RPM (Scratch Drives)
