I'm Running Solidworks and MS Outlook together.
1) What will be a faster system to purchase? (money not part of the equation): Dual processor 3.2Ghz/533Mhz FSB Zeons with 2G of 266Mhz memory(DIMMS) or (1) Pentium 4 - 3.2Ghz/800Mhz FSB with 2G of 400 Mhz memory (DIMMS)
2) (Will the fact that outlook is running in the background significantly affect the processing power of the "faster" P-4 setup or is the "slower" Dual Zeon setup going to be faster?
The goal is to purchase the best(fastest) system to run our Solidworks CAD system without getting bogged down due to MS Outlook running in the background.
I appreciate whatever advice you can lend. Thanks!
