    Question for anyone, please,

    If you select 2nd video card on your order are you assured that the motherboard can accept 2 pcie cards and thus have a 4 monitor set-up?????

    No Problemo....

    PCIE mobos mostly have a x16, x4, & x1, PCIE slots + 2 or 3 PCI slots. Matrox makes a dualhead x1 card. Michael's sounds like it even has 2, x16 slots.

  6. assuming that you are a discretionary trader..

    you don't need such a fast computer if you are a discretionary trader. even if you scalp.

    the fast comp is useless because the ping delay you experience with your isp prob will outweigh all the performance increases from the hardware

  7. I trade on mutiple browsers and accounts...and I can see the difference between my three computers...

    I am scalping, short term trading and carry's...It gets wild here sometimes...

    shoot... its only $1,245.00 that I am spending...I have always agreed with what you are stating...and actually have been the advocate for not needing power for trading because of the bottlenecks...but there is some local improvements that I might realize.

    I stepped up to the deluxe DSL speed and man, that was noticable...(I need a new box for the cable so I spent an extra four hundred bucks to test out my curiosity's..I will let you know)

    I just am not a DELL man for now...
