We're building 3 new workstations here, and I'd appreciate some
feedback. I've given preliminary approval, but if you see any weak
spots and would like to comment it would be welcome.
We're a fabrication shop, and most of our SW stuff is sheet metal and
weldments. The parts for the workstations are coming from Newegg for
about $1425. We typically keep our eng workstations for 3 years then
pass them on down the food chain.
I'll typically have SW07 with maybe 10 parts, an assembly and a couple
drawings, DWG editor or ACAD LT with two dxf files, Jobboss, excel with
one worksheet, outlook and IE, Ncell or Nc express (nesting software)
open at any one time.
Here's the spec's:
ASUS P5W DH deluxe/wifi-ap lga 775 Intel 975X ATX Intel motherboard
Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 Conroe 2.4 ghz lga 775 processor
Kingston 2gb (2 x 1gb) DDR2 sdram DDR2 667 - room on the mobo for 8
gb
PNY Quadro FX1500 256mb gddr3 pci express x 16 video card
Seagate 7200 80gb sata hard drive - (95% of our work is saved on the
network)
Sony combo drive - CRX320EE/B2S
COOLER MASTER Centurion 5 CAC-T05-UW Black Aluminum Bezel, SECC ATX Mid
Tower Computer Case
any feedback is welcome, thanks, Diego
