Information Wanted.

I recently had a Shuttle SN41G2 with an XP3200 and 1GB DDR 400.

It died.

Would a Shuttle SN85G4V3 with a Newcastle XP3000 be any faster than my old setup ?

I need to order today, any information appreciated.

Yes, it would. In games particularly it'd be noticeable, if you mean the Athlon 64 3000.

i went from an SN45G and xp-m clocked at 2.2 (2.6 occasionally) to an SN85G4V3 with a 3400 clawhammer and its quite a lot faster

Nice - well it was ordered today and hopefully will be with me tomorrow.

Better be with me tomorrow, cost me an arm and a leg for saturday delivery !

dont get me started on delivery round here!

You guessed it - even though I telephoned OCUK on the friday afternoon at 4pm to check it was coming and was told yes - it didnt leave them till saturday afternoon.

They refunded me the difference between saturday and next day delivery, but its still a poor show chaps.

FFS - Next Day delivery is now turning into 2 day delivery.

My order is still at THEIR local depot.

:mad:

welcome to the world of "next day delivery"... took me 6 days (including weekend) for my hard drives to arrive

If I get told off for moaning so be it

I got a drive on order from saturday morning which was sent out for dispatch that afternoon, I thought it would arrive today seeing as I paid for next day. It didnt arrive and that cost me £8+

What gets me, there isnt any other delivery option as I wouldve picked the royal mail 2 to 3 day option if it was available. If you look you can see "£4.75 next day delivery" on the front page... so where does that actually come in and what items does it cover? I certainly couldnt pick that one for trying...

EDIT: @[SKR]Abe - Sorry I didnt mean to trash the thread, I was looking around here as I have an SN45Gv2 with a 2800 Barton, Thinking about future shuttle upgrades. My sn45 has a been a really nice little workhorse as our htpc

(hope it keeps going touchwood)
