Hey everyone.
I need a powerful but cheap PC for running MetaTrader backtests. Can anyone tell me what are the most important factors in choosing hardware for running backtests with optimization?
Im currently using a fairly old Athlon XP with 1.5 Gig of ram and a 7200 RPM harddrive.
Anyone used the Intel i3? Does this offer a significant speed increase over the intel dual core? And how important a factor are memory and Harddrive speed?
My budget isn't unlimited and neither is my time, I hope to buy this PC today. Appreciate any suggestions
