just to save you from waisting your money, there is no point in going faster then DDR400 in a current AMD system, the memory will not go any faster then that.

Overclocking plans are afoot, and I've been keeping a keen eye on what other 3500+'ers have been doing. Strong memory is a must for this and what I have now simply doesn't cut it. It will be donated to my other box, relegated to Emule duties and TV viewing :hihi:

The WD Raptor is great, I really should grab another and RAID up my XP install.. now that would be nice and quick!

No wonder you all think games are better on the pc, you pay about 5 times as much on the crap to play them :P

btw mines a laptop and they don't have impressive stats unless you play on the go. It runs all the programs well and internet is fine, guess that's all I need really

Mine's a vintage PC by today's standards. If I keep it as is for much longer I'll have a Museum wanting to put it on display.

Athlon 1.33 GHz
Abit KT7A-RAID motherboard
384MB PC133 SDRAM
120GB 7200 RPM 8MB cache HDD
GeForce4 Ti4200
Yamaha 24/8/4 CD RW - SCSI one too!
SB Live!

Probably adding a DVD-RW next month and and in need of money for an upgrade. Will also get more RAM soon as I want to bump this one up to 512MB and my other PC which is older to either 256 or 320MB - I have 192MB in it at the moment. The other PC is a Celeron 566 - good for 24/7 file sharing and file storage

"They have the internet on computers now"

All i know is I got a P4 2.4GHz processor, 256Meg DDR RAM (soon to be 768Meg), 128 Meg Graphics card, 40 Gig Hardrive, ADSL Modem, CDR drive, floppy drive etc, some $15 speakers, Lexmark printer, Canon Scanner, 17" monitor (old fashion one, not flat) and a mouse and keyboard. Good enough for me. Oh yeh, and I also got a cute little dalmation which is also a screen-wiper.

Though I wouldn't mind the new Acer Ferrari laptop.

Might as well my two cents worth in.

Main (Personal) System:
Intel S478 2.6GHz 800MHz P4 Processor
Gigabyte 8IPE1000 8x AGP Mainboard
1024Mb Kingston Dual DDR Ram
1 x 80Gb Barracuda V SATA 7200 RPM HDD
1 x 80Gb Barracuda V 7200 RPM HDD
1 x 60Gb Barracuda IV ATA 7200 RPM HDD
1 x 120Gb Barracuda V 7200 RPM HDD
1 x 200Gb WD 8Mb 7200 RPM HDD
Panasonic 3.5" FDD (Silver to match case)
Powercolor 'Evil Commando II' 9700 Pro Video
Canopus ADVC1394 Capture Card
Monitor 1 Hansol 920P 19"
Monitor 2 IBM G76 17"
Intel 10/100 PCI Ethernet Card
Sony DRU700A DVD+R/RW/-R/RW
Creative LIVE! 5.1 DE Sound Card
Logitech Z640 5.1 Speakers
Canon A3000 Flatbed Scanner
Canon i3000 ColourJet Printer
Kodak USB Picture Card Reader
MS Multimedia KB and Optical Mouse
400w Atlas Aluminium with 8x80mm Case Fans


Although I am looking at upgrading pretty soon, as she's a bit ordinary now. Probably going with 3.6Ghz CPU, another 200Gb HDD, and video upgrade (but not going PC X-Press).

Apart from this there are two more P4 towers, a PII desktop and a laptop, a HP laserjet and a colour deskjet & 4-in-1 Multifunction, plus ADSL modem/router, and 100Mbit switch.

The money isn't necessarily spent for rubbish like gameplaying

Some of us have a life.....which involves DVD production, and similair pastimes, but a bonus of that is that game graphic quality craps all over consoles.

Yes indeed. Ever tried to write software on an XBOX? :

Hmm maybe there will be a special edition of Visual Studio for XBOX - a total development solution with a hand controller interface! Yeah baby! :
