yes, yes and yes :doh:

No worries, I got that. Its just that there is some software called xfire.

Oh, whatever.:D

Following a recent upgrade and donating my old amd xp2800+ / geforce 6800gt / 1gb generic ram machine to SWMBO, after much thought I stuck with AMD...

- Athlon 64 X2 3800+ cpu
- Asus M2N32-sli-dlx nforce590 PCI-E DDR2 (socket AM2) mobo.
- Corsair 2GB DDR2 XMS2-6400C4 TWINX ram.
- Hiper HPU-4M670 TYPE-R 670W ATX2.2 psu.
- Maxtor Diamondmax Plus 10 NCQ 250GB 6V250FO SATAII 16MB CACHE hd and an old 180gb drive as a backup.
- BFG GEFORCE 7950GT OC 512MB GDDR3 HDTV/DUAL DVI PCI-E grafix card.

It's not an uber setup, but it does leave me with some room for improvement over the next year or two; i.e more/better RAM, better cpu, that sli thing maybe.
I thought about the conroe intel thing but decided to stick with amd as I'm familiar with their stuff . In total I spent roughly the same amount on this machine as I did almost 4 years ago on my original pc... so I'm happy with that.

With any luck by the time I get around to buying SH4 and actually playing it (I'm suffering from a SH3 revival with TGW at the moment) the new stuff will not be too out of date :doh:
But I dare say with the sort of thing going on as viewed here I'm going to be **** out of luck anyway :lol: then there's all this DX10 business and vista. I think I'll be staying with XPpro fow a good while yet. Where will it all end? :roll:

Specs for the Enterprise:
ATi 9800 Pro 128 MB
Athlon XP 3000+
1GB RAM

My computer used to be high-end when I got it 2 years ago, maybe except the CPU, but after a few minor upgrades and fixes, she's still my pride and joy.

Jeeze some of you people really have hot rod computers and I'm jealous. :rotfl:

I've a 3 year old custom built "Alienware Aurora".
XP Home, AMD Athlon XP 3200+ CPU, Asus A7N8X deluxe REV 2.0 Motherboard, Samsung 512 MB DDR PC3200 RAM X 2, Seagate Barracuda 120GB 8MB cache serial ATA Hard Drive, Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS 7.1 sound card, 500 watt power supply ( burned out a 420 watt orig. supply ).
Replaced a BFG Nvidia FX 5900 Ultra 256MB AGP 8x ( 2.0 pixel support ) with the largest Nvidia Video card for this motherboard which won't support PCI-Express,
is a Geforce 7800 GS OC 256 MB AGP 8X 3.0 pixel shader support.

Might not be the best in the west but I'm sure gonna get my feet wet with SHIV. :yep:

And to all you people with the "Making me jealous" computers I'm sicking my cat on you.http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y11...k47cat2hv1.gif


JUST KIDDING. lol

Dude I love that pic :rock:

nightdagger 12-10-06 04:14 PM

No! Don't get Alienware!!!

I have:

Pentium D 805 @ 3.8GHz
2x1GB G.SKILL, 3-3-3-9 @ 780MHz
eVGA 7900GT @ 667/851 (faster than stock 7900GTX).

les green01 12-10-06 08:06 PM

Pentium cpu 3.00 ghz
2.00 gb of ram
geforce 7300 le
5.1 surround speakers

TheSatyr 12-10-06 09:38 PM

Since I'm running a 3 year old HP with only 250w,I use the FX5200. I'm not too concerned about the pixel shader since I suspect they will have 1.0 as the minimum spec,and if not I'll figure out a workaround for it.

While I would like to get a new pc,that is impossible right now due to serious health problems in my family. The money is needed for more important things at the moment.

stabiz 12-12-06 07:10 PM

Oh, yes! I could not resist, so I ordered the Asus 7950GT 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express. (Bye, bye 1 month old 7900GS :rotfl:)

PeriscopeDepth 12-13-06 12:07 AM

2.8 Ghz Pentium D Dual Core
1 Gig of RAM
7600GT

Hopefully I'll be able to get by with this.

PD
