Post your rig!

Post by snowpenguin » Sat Sep 26, 2009 8:34 pm

So, we don't have one of these. Just post the specs of your computer, maybe a little bragging if you've got some beast, and most importantly NO BRAND ARGUMENTS. REPEAT.

AMD Athlon Dual Core 2.9 GHZ regor
2 GB 1066 mhz mushkin RAM
850 GB HD space (One 750 GB drive and one 100 GB drive)
8800GT GPU
Cooler Master 500 W PSU
Antec 300
Some MSI motherboard


GO GO GO GO GO! You don't need to have built your computer, anything is fine.

For some reason I feel like I just did this :P

CPU: Core 2 Quad Q8200 @ 2.33GHz
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-P43-ES3G (P43 chipset)
RAM: 2x1GB Kingston HyperX DDR2 PC6400 (was supposed to be cheapy Kingston RAM but somebody screwed up... whatever, this stuff is better)
Graphics: Sapphire Radeon HD 4670 512MB GDDR3 (I love this card, great and cheap. I paid $100 but you can get it for about $80 or so now)
Hard Drive: 320GB Seagate, forgot what generation (good drive but nothing special)
Optical Drive: ASUS DVD Burner, LightScribe capable (argh, forgot the model number)
Power Supply: Cooler Master, 500W or 550W, not sure (works fine, nice and quiet)
Case: ASUS Vento TA-863 (I think) (great case, easy to work with, not expensive, but can't seem to find it anymore)

Monitor: LG Flatron W2052TQ 16:10 widescreen, max res 1680X1050 (good monitor, thought I'd never say it about an LCD but this thing works great)
Keyboard: some Microsoft crap I don't really like
Mouse: Logitech of some sort, $80 mouse I got on sale for like $30
Speakers: Altec Lansing 2.1 of some kind

This computer does everything I need it to do, it's really great. Not the best computer in the world, but it runs all the games I play at max res with settings mostly cranked. All in all I love my PC, would never sell it and buy a 360 or PS3 like the idiots at school suggest.

Intel C2Q Q9550 E0 @ 2.8 ghz (no overclock until I get a better CPU cooler and case)
Gigabyte EP45-UD3L
4 GB OCZ dual-channel DDR2 800 RAM (2x 2GB, so there's room for 2 more sticks)
EVGA GeForce GTX 260 216 800-something MB GPU
Corsair TX650W PSU
Recycled DVD+-RW drive from another PC
80 GB Western Digital SATA (OS)

200 GB Maxtor SATA (Programs, Steam, etc.)
1 TB Western Digital MyBook USB (music and video)
Windows 7 RC 7100
An old plain-white-box PC case from the late 90s that supports ATX, mATX, and Baby AT motherboards. It has almost no ventilation, so I'm running it with the side panel off and a desk fan blowing cool air in. (I want an Antec 300, because it has plenty of ventilation and it's positive-pressure with a dust filter, which is important when you have 2 cats. :lol:)

I built this PC back around Christmas - I've dubbed it the "Cheap Beast" because it only cost $800 shipped, and can handle pretty much any game at max settings (Which means, every game except Crysis).

CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 @ 4.0 Ghz
Motherboard: Biostar TP-45HP Motherboard (P45)
RAM: 8GB of DDR2 1066 Ram
Graphics: Sapphire Radeon HD 4870 512MB GDDR5
Hard Drive: 250GB WD HDD (My copulate Bottleneck, buying a Caviar Black very shortly)
Optical Drive: 2 Random 8x DVD Burners
Power Supply: 950W PSU with modified Silent Fan
Case: NZXT Hush Case with Blue Cold Cathode Lighting

I'll probably be upgrading it around Christmas, probably see if I can get a decent deal on a Core i5, LGA 1156 Mobo, and some DDR3...
