have a look along right hand side of page;
'Latest Forum Posts', and 'Topics'.
My bad. I'd seen that, but thought from the title
it was a processor (only) comparison and hadn't
read it. The article was indeed the kind of thing
I am looking for. However, it is more than two years
(I don't think the HP wx8400 is available any more)
and I would prefer info that is more current. I didn't
see any similar info on the site that was newer (but
I am still looking).
Also, the review tested with Gentoo. I'm obviously
interested in Fedora. Can I assume that any system
that runs ok with some other distro will also run
ok with Fedora?
along center of page;
'Latest Forum Posts'
and 3/4 down center;
'Misc. Hardware Reviews'
All I saw there was reviews of individual components.
What I would would like to find is a full list of
components that someone actually used to build a
machine with, along with a statement that they
had no problems installing and running a recent
version of Fedora on it.
It seems that current Fedora compatible hardware
recommendations are pretty scarce. This is not
very helpful to Fedora I think since I can buy
prebuilt and tested systems with Unbuntu on them.
(e.g. http://www.eightvirtues.com).
what ever you decide on, cyoa, get a power supply that is at least
100 watts over what you calculate you will need.
also, add at least 2 additional fans to be on safe side. type that
are variable speed, temperature controlled.
Good advice, thanks.
