Building A High End Quadro FX Workstation

Posted by Hemos on from the making-it-faster-and-better dept.

An anonymous reader writes "FiringSquad has an article detailing some of the differences between building a high-end workstation and a high-end gaming system. They go into things like ECC memory, and the difference between professional and gaming 3D cards. The Quadro FX 2000 coverage is particularly interesting -- the system with the Quadro FX 2000 was never louder than 55 dB!"

    -the system with the Quadro FX 2000 was never louder than 55 dB

    Which is, mind you, 10 times more quiet than the X-box !!

    Seriously, who can afford the money to put in somthing like that ? You're better off starting building another STEP system in your garage...
