Custom Computer for Linson Signs

By Jason | Published March 3rd, 2011

This is a custom computer I assembled for a customer’s sign shop. He needed a high end system, and fast, as one of his jobs he was unable to plot (print) due to the vector file having thousands of objects. Once received I had the system ready to go in 3 hours and it had no issue plotting the vector file. The system had the follow components:

  • EVGA X58 FTW3 Intel X58 3-way SLI LGA1366 Motherboard
  • Intel Core i7-950 3.06GHz 8M LGA 1366 Processor
  • Corsair XMS3 4GB PC12800 DDR3 Dual Channel 1600MHz Memory (x3)
  • EVGA GeForce 9800 GTX+ 512MB PCIe w/Dual Link DVI Video Board
  • Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB SATA HD 7200/16/SATA-6G Hard Drive
  • Sony Optiarc 24X DVDRW SATA OEM
  • Ultra X4 750W Modular Power Supply

All contained in an Ultra XBlaster Mid-Tower Black Case running Windows 7 64-bit.
