My current home network consists of a main server computer with 2 NIC's. One of them is directly connected to the cable modem. The other one is connected to a 4 port 10/100 hub that 2 other computers connect to as well in order to gain access to the internet. The reason I have it this way is...
Hi all, it's been around 4 years since I've last done this but I'm about to build a new gaming system. I do NOT intend to overclock. I was wondering if this looks like a decent build and more importantly if the machine as a whole will work well without any problems. Here's what I've decided to...
