Heatpipes because they know they are PresHOTT's. h:

Rick, I see that I can get the Dell SC1420 (xenon 3.ghz/800mhz/2MB cach) wth 160GB sata for 550 shipped. You think that I should do it?

Will it suffice as multimedia PC? (video editing, gamming, movies back up, DVD encoding, etc.) ????

I might throw in another Xenon processor later.

I need you to help me make a judgement call Rick.

We know where we're comming from.

On the side note, I don't really need a new PC since mine at home is a P4 (3.2GHZ/2gb/320gb/256mb ati 9600xt) so i don't know if i really need another one. :dunno:

Xeon and yes it will work fine provided you upgrade the ram to 2GB or more. However keep in mind the 1420 are noisy.
