Re: Your System - September/October/November 2010 Dell GX280 minitower with 3.2 GHz P4:
- upgraded memory from 1GB to 3 GB
- replaced a 80 GB drive with two Seagates, 1.5 TB (storage) and 400 GB (boot) -- the latter eventually had to be moved into a 5.25" bay due to temps that were too hot for my taste
- replaced a 6600 GT with an XFX 5670 video card
- added a firewire card
It's on an IOGear VGA/PS/2 KVM hooked up to a Dell 2709W.
Main usage is websurfing and storing my daughter's cartoons and movies.
Added -- some power specs thanks to Kill-A-Watt:
- maximum power draw during boot: 201W
- in idle after WinXP is booted: 105W
- watching Southpark full screen at 1920x1200: 170W
