I assembled my own: Intel BOXDG41MJ LGA 775 Intel G41 Mini ITX Intel Motherboard Item #: N82E16813121381 CORSAIR XMS2 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM Item #: N82E16820145184 [2] MASSCOOL FD08025S1M4 80mm Case Fan Item #: N82E16835150007 Intel Core2 Duo E7500 Wolfdale #: N82E16819115056 Unfortunately, one of the two memory sticks was bad, so I have to ship both back to Newegg, so I am stuck with the old computer until I get a replacement. The new one is 5x faster than the old one, core for core, and has two cores instead of one, so it has 10 times more capacity. Running latency test remotely through X windows, gives me max jitter of 19673 and 10839 ns. I am extremely satisfied with the form factor, it will sit nicely under the servo drives. I have two case fans, one sucks air in, and another pushes it out on the other side. I cannot yet give any conclusions. i > http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131396&cm_re=Intel_D945GCLF2-_-13-131-396-_-Product > > Based on the numbers given here. > > http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/emcinfo.pl?Latency-Test > > I noted these numbers.... > > Intel D945GCLF2 mini-ITX Atom 330 2x 1.6Ghz > 1 GB DDR 667 Linux 2.6.30.5 + RTAI 3.7.1 with SMP support > > Max Interval (1.0 ms thread) > 996381 > > Max Jitter(ns) 1.0 ms thread > 5101 > > Max Interval (25 us thread) > 30121 > > Max Jitter (25 us thread) > 5428 > > I'd love to know what you have so I can use your experience to help which > direction to go. > > Andrew > >> Igor Chudov wrote: >> > My old control box was, well, old and slow and had >> only 512 MB of RAM. >> > >> > So, I bought a bunch of parts on Newegg to build a >> small PC based on >> > "Mini ITX" motherboard (really small, to fit into tthe >> cabinet). > > > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > This SF.net email is sponsored by > > Make an app they can't live without > Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge > http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev > _______________________________________________ > Emc-users mailing list > Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
