Yes, saturday marked the day when all your computers would tremble in the presence of my new behemoth computing monstrosity (well...maybe not quite ;D) But I'm sure I could make most of you jealous (come on let me brag, just this once ;))...

-AMD Athlon XP 1800+

-ThermalTake Volcano 7

-Asus A7V333

-256mb Samsung DDR333 (soon to be 768mb)

-40gb Maxtor ATA-133 7200RPM

-MSI GeForce 4 Ti4200 128mb

-Soundblaster Live! 5.1 (good enough for me, didn't really need the Audigy)

-Samsung SyncMaster 753DF 17" FlatScreen (not to be confused with FlatPanel)

-LG 16X DVD (have a burner in my old machine, so no need for a new one)

-Windows 2000 Professional (already had it)

-1.5mb Cable

Average d/l speed = 160kbps

Max d/l speed so far (sustained for more than 1 minute) = 294kbps

-3D Mark 2001SE Score using DEFAULT settings [No OC'ing anything either] (1024x768x32) = 8484 (don't worry, when I get the extra RAM it'll be over 9000 for sure.)

edit: I have done some hardcore tweaking, and overclocking, and now I've got the 3dmark 2001SE score to 9850! :D :D Wait till that extra RAM comes...it'll be pushing 11000 :D damn right!

...Now you guys are all gonna have to go out and buy new keyboards! Why, you say? Well look, there's drool all over it! :D

Just like yours, but more RAM (512 MB, considering uprading to 1.0 GB) and more Hard Drive (80 GB, considering adding another 120GB). We only have a 56k modem, though...The service is too expensive here. :'(

Dell Dimension 8100 series 1.4 ghz Pentium 4

256MB RDRAM

19" M991 Monitor

80GB 7200 RPM Hard Drive

3x5 Floppy Drive

Harmon Kardon 2 Speaker Set with Sub Woofer.

Got it 2 years ago for christmas. Shame it's the family's and not mine. :P

Dammit, how much did it cost? I want to get a new comp...mine is like 2 years old....(8 Years old in computer years)

I shopped around, and got the system for $1771 CDN after tax (and remember there is 15% tax in Canada ( >:() so that is approximately $1150 USD in total. I could have got it for $130 (CDN) cheaper at another place, but I didn't trust their quality and service as much as the shop I ended up buying it from.

I could of doubt it is EXACTLY like man (you have the same mobo, and even the same fan!?!?!?!)And I wouldn't consider a larger harddrive better by any means. A 40gb hd will have much faster seek times, and I will NEVER use all 40gb anyway ;D. The extra RAM is a plus though. Like I said I will be buying another 512mb DDR333 in a few weeks, for a total of 768mb DDR333 ;).

Okay the one thing I can't beat you at is cable, because I don't have it. Cheap parents...not even letting me pay the ten dollar difference. >:( But happy you like your new comp.

Posted

Ya'll are lucky. Up until last may I was using a P1 166mhz comp, with 8mb of ram, no video card, and a 1.8gb HD! I'm currently using an P3 800mhz w/ 10gb HD, 192mb SDRAM, and an integrated video chip with a lousy 4mb of onboard video memory. In the most technical sense, I shouldn't even be able to run Emperor.

Hey, man it was a joke ;). But why do we need to know you system specs?

In the future there will be nothing but advanced humans who have discovered no further use of physical effort and have devoted their lives to effort of the mind. :) So there :P
