Gaming Machine [Your PC Specs] -Updated-

[ediskrad]

I've have an Mauchly-Eckert ENIAC, with 17,468 vacuum tubes, 7,200 crystal diodes, 1,500 relays, 70,000 resistors, 10,000 capacitors and around 5 million hand-soldered joints. It consumes 150 kW of power, and has a neat IBM punch card reader.

And this is me, playing tetris.

Woo!.. watch me turn that L shaped thingie around!!

My current system is as follows. The CPU is only temporary. I'm waiting for the 65nm FX x2 CPUs to come out. I also plan to change my GPU (or add another of the same) as the next line of GeForce 8 series comes out. I'm still debating whether I want to stripe 3-4 raptors in RAID 5 or get another of the same HDD and stripe that.

CPU: Athlon 64 X2 5000+ Windsor
MB: Gigabyte S5 GA-M59SLI-S5
RAM: Patriot eXtreme 2GB DDR2 800
GPU: BFG 8800GTX
HDD: 2x WD Caviar SE SATA 250GB (In JABOD for now)
CD/DVD: Samsung 18X Super-WriteMaster
NIC: Gigabyte GN-WP01GS
PSU: SILVERSTONE Zeus 750W
Case: NZXT Zero

 

[ADF]

Winfast PX7900GT TDH 256mb
1GB DDR400 ram
2Ghz AMD 64 3000 754S
WD 250GB Sata2 16mb HDD (main)
Maxtor 120GB IDE 8mb HDD (secondary)
20” LG Flatron Wide TFT (main)
17” Vision Master Pro 410 CRT (secondary)

This pretty much runs anything I want it to at 1680x1050; this includes games like Oblivion, Quake 4 and FEAR though as you imagine I have to give up some quality to achieve the res. I hate being on this crummy CPU but I got stuck on it when the socket stopped production, I'd upgrade but with it being a three component purchase “DDR2 ram, motherboard, CPU” it is too expensive for me to do right now.

[Slideboner]

lol, I got my dell for around 700 bucks

I forget the model, but so far it's got:

GeForce 8500 gt? (original graphics were onboard, thus negating any ram i would've added)
3 gigs of ram (had to add 2 gigs myself, might add more)

an already outdated athlon 64 processor

usb gamepad for snes, playstation, n64 and MAME roms
Soundblaster X-Fi soundcard
logitech x-230 speakers (not bad for the 40$ price tag, has nice bass response)
160 gigs of space + 160 more gigs on an external

also this crapheap came with vista and I experienced nothing but trouble from the start with it. Luckily every annoying feature is optional and got it configured in no time.

if I had more money to pour into a computer i'd probably start over with a new tower and just add stuff from there.

 

[FreerideFox]

You all have some very nice machines here!

Mine was like $179.99 at frys or something. been a great computer, just not so good for gaming. its soon to be replaced or upgraded.

heres my original post in the bits and bytes forum (including pics)
http://www.furaffinityforums.net/showthread.php?tid=10680&pid=199286#pid199286


As a side note, windows vista is ok and all....if you don't mind the 70 odd (67 IIRC) data mining services that run wether you like it or not and report you activeities back to microsoft wether you like it or not. of course its all non-identifieable information but ms say that if they have to they'll use it against you (funny, thats got to be hard to do if its un-identifieable information)

[Zestence]

I have a custom build (bit budget) gaming PC, it has ran every game on all settings maxed out (bioshock, UT3, doom 3...you name it...i run it ^^). The only bottleneck is probably my vid card (also winXP cannot use the dx10 support).

Specs:
- AMD athlon 6000+ 3.0Ghz (analyzes show 3.2Ghz, it comes a bit overclocked stock)
- 2gb ram (analyze shows 2056mb)
- Nvidia 8600GT 256mt
- microATX motherboard
- 500gb hard drive

Each part runs at nice steady temperatures, thought vid card does pick up a bit heat sometimes after running games (goes up to 40-50c) but it is actually quite normal and im yet to see any issues.
