93Cutty Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 I'm kind of debating on switching out my case for a bigger one. I have an HP right now I bought from best buy (I know, I know).. 3800+ Athlon 64 dual core. It's nice though, I am thinking on maybe getting a full tower and do a bit more upgrading. I have 1 gig ram now, mobo can support up to 4. I have 1 250 gig SATA and 1 200 gig SATA. I have an IDE slot that I could put a couple more HDDs in. It's either that or if I can price out something not too spensive I may just up and build another one. Do you guys go for performance or looks? I know you'll say both but what's more important to you? I'm kind of wanting to do some lights/plexi all the cool stuff, but you know. Isn't this my internals?

I know you'll say both but what's more important to you? I'm kind of wanting to do some lights/plexi all the cool stuff, but you know. why do you wanna mix sata and ide hds? i mean go ahead if you want just make sure you use the ide drives as storage drives and put all your main programs on the sata hd. lol id say performance is more important but then again you waste some money into looks that you could have put into performance. check out my computer build 93cutty might give you some ideas might not couldnt hurt lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MegaloManiac Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 i have 1 250 sata hdd, but i also have a 60gb ata ide hdd (wow thats a lot of acrynoms) i only have the ide because i ran out of space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93Cutty Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 Yea I don't think I will use the whole couple IDE ones I have it isn't logical to me now. I am not all really into looks just one of those things I wonder. I see a lot of modded cases but I never really paid attention to what's inside to know if it has the performance backed with the looks or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeremiahCoffel Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 It's good to actually see some other people that are 'computer geeks' that are in the car audio world, especially Mr. Meade himself. I was very suprised to see this too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
