Hello FP my uncle needs a computer powerful enough to run Forex Robot for Exchange off Vaults(dont' got a correct translation)24/7 with no exceptions. Since I'm not good when it comes to building PC for this kind of job I decided to ask FP. I was thinking along the lines of a Intel core i7/Phenom 6. But what do you guys think? The country is Slovenia and the budget is 1400€(Euros) [b]Prefer'd Sities[/b] [url]http://www.agt.si/[/url] [url]http://www.mimovrste.com/katalog/20/racunalnistvo[/url] [b]Feel free to edit my build![/b] As of now the build is in post #12!
Change drive to a Samsung Spinpoint F3 if you can.
get a UPS
Cool it well, get a UPS, and don't run Windows.
where uptime is a concern you really want to put your money towards the motherboard and PSU, btw.

You would probably want to go with a server build

[QUOTE=MacTrekkie;26234998]Change drive to a Samsung Spinpoint F3 if you can.[/QUOTE] Normally i'd agree, but Western Digital drives have a longer live span, they are tested to last 24/7.

An SSD will make it last.

Not sure but I guess Forex robot doesn't require that much of power
[QUOTE=Wnd;26313249]Not sure but I guess Forex robot doesn't require that much of power[/QUOTE] My uncle said he needs a powerful computer to run it and he is using Forex Robot for well over a year now so I trust him on that. But if any of you guys wan't to prove me wrong I will happily change my opinion

[QUOTE=Murkrow;26332875]I don't think "overclock" goes well with "24/7/365"[/QUOTE] True, but even without overclocking it's still an insanely well valued processor.
