Just like the title says, everyone post there system specs.



AMD K6-2 450Mhz @ 500Mhz

256MB PC-133 SDRAM @ CAS 2

Seagate 10GB 5400RPM IDE HDD

Sony 10x4x32 CDRW

Generic 44x CDROM

Voodoo2 12MB (Soon to be a Hercules Prophet 4500 64MB)

Creative SoundBlaster 128 (A temporary replacement after my Live! Platinum got fried)

100Mbit/s Cable connection



Not too flashy, but it gets the job done.

My system is too low-spec to run new demos:

PII 350MHz

VooDoo3 AGP

64MB RAM

Half-Duplex sound card (not sure which one)

32 speed CD-ROM

56K Modem connection



Utter gobshite...

I'm getting to be in the same boat as DLSBlade:



AMD K-6 300Mhz

64 Megs RAM

32 Meg TNT 2 nVidia

Soundblaster 16

4.0 Gig HD

44X CD-ROM

Internet on Cable

You guys both have better graphics cards then me, yet the rest of your systems are older. Interesting....

I'm in desperate need of an upgrade [forth coming, as soon as enough cash is collected...]

Lets see:-



AMd K7 Athlon 600MHz

196 Mb PC133 SDRAM

AGP 4x GeForce 2 GTS 32Mb DRR

Sound Blaster 1024 Player

1 * 10Gb Seagate IDE ATA 33 HDD

1 * 20Gb SeaGate IDE ATA 66 HDD

44 speed Panasonic DVD-ROM

2 * exhaust fans

1 * 8cm case fan

1 * 5.25in Bay Fans

not to forget the heat Sink fan

not much, but hey its old

I think you mean Athlon, not Anthlon.



Your in need of an upgrade? You have a better system the nany of us.

K7 600

192 MB RAM

3Gb HDD Seagate

17.2 GB HDD Seagate

GeforcePro 32MB DDR [on clockable nVIDIA drivers]

multiple fans

4-channel Sound Card

40X CD ROM

32x8x8 CD-RW



running a 19" @1600by1200by32



Both Prezes and me are aiming at an upgrade to:

Athlon 1.4

1GB 2100 DDR

Abit mobo's

Yes, just a type-o, anyway I changed the spelling to the correct one.

1 GB of ddr ram? Your never going to need that much. You may aswell just save yourself some money and get something along the lines of a Geforce3 Ti 500

*drool*

Me & demi would not buy that piece a sh#t.



Our dream graphics card costs more that the 2 systems put together

It goes alot quicker than you think. UT, upcoming UT2. When I'm on the net, 4-8 IEwindows open, 3-5 html editor windows, DAP downloading something, Creative Player up and running Just to name a few.

As it all runs on Win98SE....

My origional system had a 8 Meg ATI in it, I upgraded the card about a year and a half ago. I desperately need an overall upgrade, but I'll probably have to settle for more RAM for now, until I'm no longer a student anyway.

Ummm, I don't remember all of it but here's my best.



Pentium III 700 MHz

10 Gig Hard Drive



And then rest I'll have to post later because I'm not on that computer right now.

Also I have 128 Megs of RAM and a 56K modem. I'm getting cable but I don't know when. I forgot to post that a second ago.

I'm gonna sit on the GeForce until a 128MBDDR, 4-engine, 4or8-pipeline card comes out. They're already a year late.

For now with a 1.4Athlon and plenty of DDR RAM my current card(s) will do fine.

A 128mb card with 4 GPU's? That would be the Voodoo5 6000, which is not coming out since 3dfx went under.



There is however a 128mb version of the Geforce2mx, lord kows why since more memory won't help since it only has one pipeline, so just because they chuck more ram on it doesn't increase the memory bandwidth. Although most people don't know that, they'll see "128mb of ram" and go "Holy Shit!" and buy it and get ripped off.



Prezes:

The load that you described there would nowhere near use up 1gig of ram. A system running all of those would run perfectly fine on 256mb. Unless you are going to be doing industrial graphic design, or intensive CAD work, then there really is no reason to get more then 256mb of ram.



Also, the graphics card you are speaking of would perform very poorly in games. Those are industrial graphics cards meant for things such as CAD design and rendering engineering models. A Geforce3 would easily outperform a card like that in any game. And i'm sure that you are interested in gaming since that is one of this sites largest aspects.

PIII 600MHZ

128MB RAM

20GB Hard Drive

ATI RAGE PRO (16MB)

56k Modem

Soundblaster pro 64MB

17" monitor

Actually Prezes and me ARE [or rather still are]considering doing some good 'ol rendering for which we need as much 'ooomph' as possible.

The Oxygen and others work ONLY in OpenGL [but then think of the look of your Unreal Tournament rendered in OpenGL on such a card....]



The Voodoo 6000????? nah.

I was thinking of a Radeon that was supposed to come out last Christmas.

Spec was minimum 128MB and 4 pipelines and 4 engines [me thinks]



RE: DDR RAM, the prices are good, so why not buy a Gig??

You guys have some sweeet computers. Mine, well, sucks compared to yours.

I also have to buy a new lapper.



THIS time it ain't gonna be friggin Compaq, and no Windows ME on the bastard either.



I love Asus lappers, especially the one with standalone graphics and the CD player for which you don't have to boot the whole lapper...
