  • 0:40 is that a dent?

  • @gta4life55 yeah, damaged in shipping (thanks UPS). the system worked great though.

  • Hey nice video but why would anyone need so much RAM?

  • @crazyskiier0023 depends on the application. High end financial work needs a lot, as does geographic imaging. Seismic datasets, etc. People do some crazy stuff with these workstation, not just run photoshop like me!

  • this is one of the worst computer cases ive seen

  • lol ok.

see all

  • @crazyskiier0023 These are mostly used in film company's used for FX

  • This one is a "better bang for the buck" than the Z800, am I right?

  • This Tooll-less stuff is for nooby like mac fanboys - HP dumbs people down.

    Also the guys clamped the WIRES that were hangin when he put the PSU back in ... they got all squished ... just probably bent or damaged a capacitor on there ... what a fail.

  • @crazyskiier0023 Why so much RAM? Here's two of many reasons:

    1) Media (Audio Video) production with effects rendering with multiple virtual instruments.

    2) Various electrinic design engineering requirements. 

  • @SimplyCarLo .... lol ... The Mac Pro's can hold dual Xeons and add a stable OS like Snow Leopard and a way you go ... 

  • exactly how's this case better than a cooler master w custom motherboard?

  • I browsed to my cheapest store in ireland elara.ie - HP z600 a dual core intel Xeon E5620 2.4 GHz - 8GB of ram - ( NO graphics card) yes no graphics card cost 2822,93 including vat. LOL and this video was made 18 mths ago - I've stick with my new i7-950-12gigs of ram(24 gig max) - gigabyte udr3 ( 4x PCI-x16 slots), antec 193 case, Ati 5770, 650 WATT for, 2 X 500GB HDS for 900 quid. - 

  • @wwwgeekdotcom I want to upgrade. I am currently using a custom case with an old Tyan K8WE using two amd opteron 275 cpus- I want to switch to Xeon 5500/5600. Instead of purchase a whole system. What i really need is a new case, 2xcpus and at least 12gb of ram+ power supply. I was thinking of getting the HP Z800 BUT I i need as much 2 pci-express slots for two QUADRO 4000 CARDS. The pc will used for CAD and 3d animation.
