Hi all.........

I've been so busy with stocks and taxes that I haven't given
my trading computer much thought the last few days.
I still have 400+ more stock transactions to type into TurboTax Deluxe.

Networm, your msg to me about looking at the speed of my system
to clear up any slowness is kinda beyond me. I'll find a friend
to help me work through your advice. But for now, my reason for
being on this thread is to build a NEW computer for daytrading. I'm currently using an old NEC p133. Since I'm going to put some money
into a new computer, I would rather use the "good stuff", rather than
just going out and buying an OEM model.

ZeusPaul, thanks for the on-going discussion.

M.Cahill, you are on the right thread. To build a computer
(to your niche) at a budget/reasonable price. There is much
advice here. ZeusPaul has gone to a lot of work making sense of
the various components. Go to home.att.net

My trading computer is almost finished in my mind.
I'm still deciding between STB or Appian multimonitor cards.
Then I need to decide on my hard drive set up and motherboard.
These decisions have been going along for some time.

One thing I've learned is that it takes a lot of personal reading
to come to some decisions. Let us know your preliminary system.
It will most likely be similar to mine at a much cheaper cost
than Dell.
