If, I would add a fan. The board has but one pci slot available. So it would be either pci or through an additional Nic eth. hang on to next post :-)

This a test for a Fujitsu esprimo 920. There are no expansion slots that would allow for an LPT to be added. So there is only a serve thread. The machine has a ton of bios options available to play. For this run I just switched off everything that seemed suspicious to impair latency. The system felt really responsive, the most responsive I've tested so far.

    Edit: Dunno, but I'll try the hp 8300 with more ram too, so stand by

    The test was running for 20 minutes while i was watching other stuff on youtube at full HD video quality.
    Not shabby at all ! Thanks to PCW who mentioned this as a very nice LinuxCNC PC.
    Beware of the power brick, quad cores come with 180W power supply that is big and heavy ! :)

    Just one little thing: There is a hp 830 Elitebook. I guess you do not want your 8300 USDT to be held for the Elitebook?

    Your machine seems to work on swap: "Swap useage: prerun: 16732, running: 27432" Add ram! Add 2 ram bars of same size. I would not go under 4GiB.
