Nothing really special... 5400RPM and only 8mb cache... but going above that in a 2.5in drive gets too expensive and I just wanted more space._j5689_ wrote:

I got this for my dad about a week ago. I'll be visiting him this weekend to help him set it up. It should really push his MTX floorstanding speakers pretty hard and offer a huge improvement over the current receiver he has (older than me, and only is a stereo receiver).

They're pretty highly regarded as an audio manufacturer, always getting very high customer reviews; they primarily do receivers, although they do also have a few shelf stereo systems and a few home-theater-in-a-box systems. It was either that or a Denon receiver (also highly regarded, and more expensive per price point than Onkyo).Poseidon wrote:

There are many other brands that you've most likely never heard of, but those can be easily $3K+ per receiver/amp (and can be incredibly more expensive than that).

Just bought and installed an E8400. It was only $199, and it's increased my 3Dm06 score by over 3000 (9650 --> 12912). I've yet to test it in a game, but I expect there to be a performance boost. Well, I hope there is, seeing that it took me over an hour to install it.
I've also tested my RAID card and it seems to work, so now I'll be able to get a new HDD (750GB or 1TB, haven't decided yet) and a SATA DVD drive.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP
