Any interest in beginning a Best Practices sticky thread for Hardware??

In the thread we can state Best Practices from a Hardware perspective such as;

Hard Drive Solutions - One Hard Drive, Shared directory (Symbolic Linking, etc.) vs. Multiple Hard Drives individual directory
Video Card Roundup - Stats on video cards and their performance for single account per machine or multiboxing via one machine, SLI in respect to multiboxing, etc.
RAM - How much and why? Per client and per machine requirements, etc.
Processor - Similar to Video Card summary

Just felt if we had a resource for this it would eliminate a lot of the second guessing when it comes to hardware purchasing and redundant threads. Also, helps out
to compare hardware in reference to your own and base performance gains on results from others.

Just wondering . . . :thumbsup:

Would be a good idea!

Cool, maybe we should have a pre-thread (rough draft) to get a general consensus or maybe it could be a mashup and I can edit
the first post accordingly.

I'll think about it, right now it's Saturday night, the Final Four is over, UCLA :cursing: lost and it's time to get tipsy!!! 8o

Sounds like it would work best as a wiki page.

I'm no authority, but basically you just edit the wiki markup in your browser.

I had no idea there was a wiki specific to this site. I assumed you meant wikipedia. :pinch: thanks!

Hey Majestic, can you make the wiki button flash or something? We really need to draw more attention to it! ;)
