Hey, it'd be interesting to see where everyone's at in terms of computer hardware. Post your specs, or even a picture, if it's particularly beautiful
I'm on a: Processor: AMD 64 3500+ Motherboard: Asus A8N-SLi Deluxe Graphics card: Radeon x850XT PCI-E RAM: 2gig of Corsair Twinx XMS3200 Soundcard: Soundblaster Audigy with 5.1 surround sound Monitor: 2x 19" monitors And a sexy Wacom Graphics tablet for my web design / photoshop work.

My plain old IBM Laptop: Intel Centrino Processor 1.6ish Ghz 80 Gigabytes of Storage 512 MB of RAM 15.1" Screen Graphics Card: Mobility Radeon 9600 Sound: SoundMAX integrated card DVD-R and CD-RW Its got an ethernet port (for that 10-30 megabit connection that i love at clemson) and a plethora of cool stuff on it.
My box AMD 1800+ Ausu Nforce 266VM 768 MB DDR 200+40 HDD [both 7200 RPM] Radeon 9800SE 128 MB softmodded to a 9500 Pro [Core 350 and mem 300] Samsung Syncmaster 17" Standard 104 key keyboard and standard 3 button logitech mouse, both 7 years old My dream system - Processor: AMD 64 3500+ Motherboard: Asus A8N-SLi Deluxe Graphics card: Radeon x850XT PCI-E RAM: 2gig of Corsair Twinx XMS3200 Soundcard: Soundblaster Audigy with 5.1 surround sound Monitor: 2x 19" monitors Sound familiar? |Cain|
On my own box (not the one I'm using the now) AMD 500Hz (K6 I believe), FSB of around 66 HZ I think 12GB Hard Drive 192 MB RAM (a 64 and a 128 chip) Onboard Graphics and Sound Old, but she's my baby, and runs Slackware like a dream
ill bite... AMD Athlon 64 2800 radeon 256MB radeon 9600 pro 512 of bargain basement sweatshop factory ram 80 gig HD filled with k-1/mma vids (and uh... a couple of other vids ) and blizzard games. oh and some of that pesky university stuff. Wuv this computer, built it myself for about a 3rd of what they wanted to rip me off for in a shop, never had ANY problem with it.
My self-assembled gaming-rig spec: Athlon 2.2GHz (Barton core) XP 3200+ , Cooler Master Dual-Storm HSink/Fan Epox 8RDA3+ (nForce2 Ultra 400) FSB 2x200MHz (400MHz data rate) 2GHz RAM = Corsair (2x512) DDR400 pc3200 in Dual Channel +Corsair 1024 DDR400 pc3200 Aeolus nVidia GForce 6800GT (o/c core 429 MHz, mem 1.15 GHz) + Zalman Cooler on Graphics card 17" LCD Iiyama Prolite E435S (10ms) Maxtor 160 Gb SATA 7200rpm WD Caviar 20.5Gb IDE 5400rpm NEC DVD RW ND-2500A On board sound EAX + 5.1 THX Surround Cambridge Soundworks 550W Enermax PSU Enermax fan-controller for 92mm Sliverstone fans (x2 in / x2 out) Gateway 2000 Server case ZBoard, Trackball Explorer, Logiteh Freedom 2.4 Win XP Pro +SP2 Older gereration I know but good for a while yet.
Because I have 3 slots (2 of which are duel channel), the mobo will support 3GB total. I've read Windows can only handle 2GB - any extra doesn't increase speed of syst only gives extra storage. So I bought x2 1/2GB sticks for duel channel slots and 1GB stick for the other. I put the syt togeather with a view to o/cing, but as yet only had nerve to clock the graphics card.
I think he meant to ask about the 'GHZ' part Anyways more RAM for storage is what speeds up the system, detecting it or not is the question As far as I know windoze 2000 pro will only detect 2 gigs [or is that 4?], not sure about xp |Cain|
I use my trusty laptop, which is probably half way to being deaded by running Folding @ Home 24 hours a day on full power (I can feel the heat from it on the underside of my desk!). Specs are - Acer TravelMate 242LC 15" XGA TFT LCD screen Celeron 2.4GHz processor 256MB DDR SDRAM - upgraded to 512MB with some Crucial RAM 30GB Ultra ATA/100 HDD DVD/CD-RW
