Dell Optiplex GX150 need opinons! about to order 2

[gregshin]

Opinons...anybody worked with them yet? They come with 1/2 length PCI slots...what the hell are those?

 

[vi edit]

Are you buying the micro or low profile cases? If so, then the half length means that only short PCI cards like modems and NICs will fit into that slot. Something giant like a VooDoo2 or V5-5500 will not fit in there.

It's not the size of the PCI slot, it's more the lenght of the PCB of the card.

I buy the GX110 towers. Damn nice machines.

thanks vi_edit...hmm the GX110's? let me look!

 

[vi edit]

I also buy the GX110's w/ the i810 chipset and the SDRAM. I'm not paying for RAMBUTT.

the dell compiter at my house just plain sux. it can't hold a candle in the stability department with my overclocked machine. personally i think that is just plain sad.

 

[BoberFett]

Just curious, are you buying this for home or office? If it's for home, why are you buying an Optiplex instead of a Dimension?

 

[gregshin]

it's for the office! they're just doing office type of processing...nothing fancy. And we need to save space also!

 

I got a GX110 at work. Not a bad machine. The BIOS options are booty though

I got a GX110 at work (Actually 2 of them). They're real nice machines. I only wish the display was capable of 1600 X 1200 X 16bit (got a 21" display).
