<div class="IPBDescription">Your PC specs here</div>I'm surprised a gaming forum wouldn't have a computer spec thread. Naturally I needed to start one.
So here we go;
Computer name: Slicky
CPU: Athlon 64 3200+
Motherboard: Lanparty UT RDX200 CF
Video: HIS Radeon 1950 pro
Sound: Creative Audigy 4
RAM: Edit: 2gig Dual Channel OCZ platinum
Harddrive(s): Seagate Barracuda 320 GB, Maxtor 250 GB
PSU: 420W <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />
Media: Some Generic Writemaster DVD burner (Hopefully soon a blu-ray burner too)
Keyboard: Creative Fatal1ty
Mouse: G5
Case: NZXT Apollo
Also, lots of fans. Lots and lots of fans. Still stays really quiet.
It's a little nightlight for anyone who sleeps on my couch too. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin-fix.gif" />

Computer name: God
CPU: Athlon 64 4000+ (~2.4 GHz)
Motherboard: No clue*
Video: NVida GeForce 7600 GT
Sound: Realtek AC97 Audio
RAM: 2 GB DDR
Harddrive(s): 160 GB, 30 GB
PSU: No clue*
* How would I figure those out?
Or you could just get a nifty little program like Everest that shows you all that stuff automatically. I prefer digging around in my hardware though. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />
Edit: Also, the PSU if you don't know is the box in the top left corner of the case, where all the power cables come from and where the computer plugs in. The motherboard is naturally the gigantic board in which every card and device connects to. Just in case.
Computer Name: (...that's not really all that important for a spec sheet, now is it?)
CPU: Athlon XP 2400+ (2.0Ghz)
Motherboard: VIA KM266-8235 (really a POS, but it's a Compaq and that's what they gave me years ago)
Video:ATi 256MB RADEON X700 PRO AGP 8x (...which only gets to run at 4x because Compaq shafted me)
Sound: Realtek AC97 Audio
RAM: 768MB DDR running at 133 Mhz (actually a PC2100 and a PC3200, since I couldn't find anymore crappy 2100 lying around anymore)
Harddrive 1: 80GB (...probably a Compaq POS)
Harddrive 2: 145GB (Maxtor that I bought for $10, but works surprisingly well)...
Media Drive: 8x DVD-ROM (...woot for not being able to record CDs/DVDs...which my laptop does)
PSU: 450W (...gives off fancy blue light...didn't know it did when I bought it, and I don't really care <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" /> )
It's only a shadow of its former self when I bought it from HP/Compaq 3.5 years ago. Unfortunately, except in the RAM and graphics card department, my laptop surpasses it in every way (and would surpass it in every way had I not upgraded). Now I've got an awesome processor bottleneck, since I'm afraid of switching out motherboards and breaking everything (let us pronounce this new fear "Motherboardmetathesiophobia").
Over-powered flux capacitor running at 5.9 Thz
EEA-200 high powered reciever antenna
words words words
My comp has a radeon 9800 xt and a 3.4 ghz processor, that's pretty much everything remarkable about it.

2) Start->Run->Type in "Dxdiag" and hit enter
My specs?
CPU: AMD 2800+ though it is reporting as running at 1.3ghz...
MoBo: ASUS A7V880
RAM: 1K running at 133
Video: Radeon X1300 (256 megs ram)
Sound: SB Live! (god is this old, probably the oldest part of my comp <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />)
HDDs: a 30gig and a 120gig
yah, nothing all that special
I have been rebuildign this same sestem for god know how long now. I should honestly just build my self a compleatly new rig at some point.

Anybody feel like helping me design a new computer that will be a beast for computer games, but lightish on the pocket? Seeing as I have about $AUD 200 now and a lowpaying job.. I'm looking at getting a loan from my parents and getting a better job in a fortnight.
I've heard good things about intel core duo or whatever, but that's as up to date as I get concerning computers.
Like I said, any help for the forums' most loathed poster would be much appreciated <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink-fix.gif" />

Hmm... my computer, after many years of continuous bugs and kinks and trials, is finally kaput, sofar as I can tell. Looks like I'll need to save up money and buy everything new, minus network card, mouse, keyboard and monitor.

SHUT UP IDIOT
My mate suggested this for a $AUD1200 budget:
Intel Core 2 Duo E6400: $320
Asus P5B: $175
RAM 1GB DDR2 533: $130 (apparently 667 RAM doesn't give so much of a
performance increase, and in some cases a decrease)
GF 8800GTS 320MB: $450
550W PSU (not completely generic) $90
But I could go up to $1500 if the extra money boosted my performance [in games] significantly.
My specs, until I upgrade later this year:
Name: DANNY
Proc: 2.6GHz P4 800MHz FSB
Mobo: ASUS P4P-800
RAM: 1 gig 3200
3d card: Radeon 9600 Pro
HD: 180 gig 7200RPM 8MB cache Seagate
PSU: Whatever comes in an Antec Sonata 2
I would also advice to spend the extra on a P5B Deluxe, instead of the vanilla version, for better stock chipset cooling among other things. There's one thing though which propably concerns the whole P5B lineup - the onboard sound. It's been said to have issues with several games and otherwise. I noticed someone over Asus' forums complaining that the CPU load exceeded 20% when using it...
PSU - for reasonably quiet and reliable products, see Antec NeoHE (manufactured by Seasonic I understand, other Antec PSU's have a... lesser reputation), Seasonic (obviously), Fortron or Nexus (rebranded Fortron). There are others, but I've had both Fortron/Nexus and Seasonic PSU's for some time, and they've served without fail.
Thanks for the tips Luukas. Soundcards aren't very expensive so I'll grab a cheap one and chuck it in. I'll probably need to grab some really cheap headphones too, since my current speakers are all but dead... or may potentially just be dead [or maybe it's just my soundcard].

RAM: 640KB
HDD: 20MB

Also, what's better for 250G hdd's: Maxtor, Seagate, or Western Digital? I've heard good things about Seagate years ago, but the only HDDs to ever die on me have been Seagate, so.. go figure.
