there are two things you may be talking about here as the two are often confused:

There are very few motherboards and cases that support this but one that does is the Mac Pro from Apple. Using dual quad core processors, the computer can utilize up to 8 cores.

Newegg.com

Free shipping and cheap prices.

What your going to get totally depends on what kind of person you are.. a gamer or a person who uses the computer for work. A good gaming computer requires alot of power. If this demand isn't reached, the computer will get messed up. A computer for work doesn't need much of anything. However the type of work is a different story. Web designers or people who use video programs or picture ones such as CorelVideo Studio Pro or Photoshop, require a pretty good 3D-Card to get the best out of the work.

That is also required for gamers who want good looking games. Such as Lineage 2.

Hope this helped.

:D

How many amps does a computer draw?

It depends entirely on your type of monitor and power supply, but you can figure on the average of 100 watts per amp (that's a generalization of course). If you have for instance, a 350 watt power supply, that means the power supply can put out 350 watts of power for the computer to use, but that's the low voltage components of the power supply.

As an example, I have a CRT type of monitor that uses 2.5 amps but on my power supply, there isn't a rating tag, so I'd approximate it at 1 to 2 amps.

People tend to confuse output watts as the draw of power from the AC voltage, but there are other variables that come into play.

Yes, those variables are power supply efficiency, PFC but mostly follow ohms law.

When a computer is turned off what happens to the data on a Hard Drive?

What To Store In A Computer Desk Hutch?

A computer desk hutch is a sort of raised area that goes on the top of a computer desk. The monitor will sit in front of it and the body of the computer will, typically, go below. There will be drawers or cabinets built into the hutch, which is why many people love them. They offer a lot of space in which things can be stored that are needed when working with a computer. These things will all be close at hand, making it so that you do not have to walk to a closet every time that you need something, but they will not look like clutter, piled all around on the desk's top. You will be able to tuck them away where they will not be seen unless someone is looking for them. There are many different things that can be stored in a computer desk hutch.

First off, you will want to store all of the extra cables and cords that go with the computer. These need to be close because you could need them at any time -- you might not need a USB cable until your friend stops by and wants to hook his camera up to your computer, for instance. You can also put extra power strips and electrical cords so that you can plug the computer in; this allows you to replace those things if they burn out.

Beyond that, you could put the typical things that you will need when doing business work. This could include envelopes, stamps, tape, paper, pens, paper clips, and many other things. You can image how bad these would look if they were just piled on top of the desk. By putting them in the hutch, you will not have to deal with that kind of clutter. If the drawers are large enough, you could even use the hutch to store tax information and other such documents.

A computer desk hutch is really just a way of making sure that you do not waste space. All of the space over the computer's monitor would just be empty if not for the hutch and the cabinets and drawers that it provides.
