Hi,
I must to build a configuration for buy a Dell Precision 690, and, based with te limits of price and configuration here in Brazil, i'm between these configurations below.
*We work with assemblyes like 600-1500 features and 100-500 parts. We don't use for render purposes (sometimes). We run Cosmos too. **They must be Dell (for an internal reason)Configuration 1:
2x Xeon 5050 3ghz, 667mhz, 2MB L2 2GB DDR2 533MHZ ECC 80GB SATA 3GB/S 7200RPM 8MB NVIDIA QUADRO FX550(D), 128MB, PCIe x16 LCD ULTRA SHARP 20"Price: R$9700 (like $4400)
Configuration 2:
1x Xeon 5050, 3GHZ, 667MHZ, 2MB L2 2GB DDR2 533MHZ ECC 80GB SATA 3GB/S 7200RPM 8MB NVIDIA QUADRO FX3500 256MB PCIe x16 LCD ULTRA SHARP 20"Price: R$11222 (like $5100)
Configuration 3:
2x Xeon 5060, 3.2GHZ, 1066MHZ, 2MB L2 2GB DDR2, 533MHZ ECC 80GB SATA 3GB/S 7200RPM 8MB NVIDIA QUADRO FX550(D), 128MB, PCIe x16 LCD ULTRA SHARP 20"Price: R$12180 (like $5550)
What you think about the RAM? We think to work in the future x64, but I'm not sure how it will be advantageous for our application... maybe
4gb will be better? And about the general configuration?I=B4m working arround somthing near $4500-5000 price (here for Brazil).
Thanks, and sorry for my bad english
