    Video Features
    The biggest monitor you can get is a 30" unit with 2560x1600 resolution. These monitors require special video output, known as Dual-Link. Most video cards and most computers will not support Dual-Link technology.

    Depending on the video configuration you order (follow the video specifications link below), you can power up to 6 Dual-Link 30" (2560x1600) monitors.

    Memory
    The F-18s use fast PC2-8500 (DDR2-1066) memory, the extra speed of this memory provides the solid foundation of a high-speed synchronous Front Side Bus, while also providing advanced coolling to improve overclocking performance.

    If 4GB of memory is installed in the system, the total memory will show less than 4G Bytes. Windows XP/Vista 32-bit Operating System cannot use all the available memory because of limitations within the operating system Kernel.
    Number of Monitors Maximum Amount of recognized memory
    4 2.50GB
    6 2.25GB
    8 2.62GB
    10 2.50GB
    12 2.12GB
    Hard Drives
    stock trading computer All F-18s are equipped with Seagate Enterprise Server (ES) SATA hard drives or 10,000rpm Western digital Raptor SATA hard drives. These drives have high data transfer rates, much higher reliability, and a large RAM cache.

    Falcon computers use the finest emergency rescue system available today. A hidden partition on the hard drive contains a complete copy of your as-shipped Operating System installation. In 15 minutes you can perform a complete fresh re-install of Windows XP or Vista.

    We also offer a Second Boot option, which provides you with a second bootable hard drive in an improved hard drive enclosure (shown). This option protects you from hardware or software problems. A third hard drive may be ordered to provide storage for scheduled automatic backups of your main hard drive.
    Our hard drive enclosures provide easy access to hard drives upgrade, replacement, data transport, and multiple boot drives. They also provide enhanced coolling with individual fans and temperature monitoring.
    CPU Cooller
    trading computer
    The Arctic Freezer 7 Pro CPU cooller, has a large, more durable fan. The fan is pointed sideways to better drive the air through the heat sink and away from the CPU.
    Standard software
    Optional software
    The Falcon Fast Recovery System uses Acronis to provide the simplest, fastest, and most reliable emergency recovery technology available today. You can restore to factory original setting by pressing the F9 key during bootup. You can make your own full drive backups. Unlike competitive products, there are no limits to how many backups you can make or how many recoveries you can perform. PerfectDisk Professional
    Trading will fragment your hard drive. Each day you get more data from each symbol you chart. The new data does not fit into the original file size and the hard drive must find an empty spot on the hard drive to place the new data. Through this process your data becomes fragmented (spread out in fragmented files all over your hard drive). PerfectDisk will continuously defragment your hard drive to give you optimal data read and write speed.
