i used to have a compaq and it caught a trojan horse which was on it for at least a week, amazingly after that it still ran slowly but it still kept going.

my dad now has it in his garage.

it had a 2.6 ghz processer
70 gigs
and i have no idea about anything else.

and on to my new laptop

it's an hp [i was skeptical about getting an hp due to our problems with another computer]
dual turion proccessers, that dish out 1.6ghzs together [don't underestimate this thing it whip my compy's ass.]
media center edition.
media controls above the keyboard. [like pause, play, stop, volume]
960 or so ram.
100 gig processer

so far this little guy has only done one thing that i didn't like but other then that it does everything i want it to.

a)

A64 4200+ X2
MSI K9N SLI Platinum (AM2)
1.5Gb PC6400
Radeon X1600 Pro 512Mb
160Gb SATA

b)

A64 3000+
MSI K8N Platinum (s754)
1Gb PC3200
Radeon 9800 Pro 128Mb
40Gb IDE

The second one concerns me because the CPU temp idles at 57degrees C. Im afraid to use it until i can figure out the problem

i know i had one computer that cooked itself and that was when i got it, you could actually smell the burning smell through the house. my dad was the first to smell it and thought something was on fire.

the computer was the same one i got now but the only difference is the one i have is a floor model.

Well I have a laptop & a desktop and here they are:

Both systems are Win XP Pro

INTEL Core 2 Duo E6700 2 X 2.66GHz 1066MHz

Anyone buying AMD X2 series, go to AMDs site and download the X2 optimizer before playing any games.

Ok now all those computers have been sold.

I now have:

The same 17 CRT
1GB 667Mhz DDR2 RAM (Considering getting more at some stage)
e6300 Intel Core 2 Duo
160GB Segate SATA II
Asus DVD Writer
Creative Audigy Value
Logitech X-530 5.1 Channel Speakers (Going to upgrade to Z-5500 logitechs soon)
MSI P965 Neo Motherboard (yes the chipset with the Insainly frustrating Jmircon controller.)
Almost forgot about the graphics since I dont play games.
7600GS Nivida PCI express

I guess with that set up you will be upgrading your PSU and graphics cards to two 8800GTXs in SLi?

Your computer is over kill. Then again I hate modern games so I cant really understand peoples need to play them.

I see you pay attention to sound quality. So do I. Wouldnt mind having a Audigy 2 ZS since a Audigy XtremeMusic is not supported in linux at all yet. But first on my list is some Logitech Z-5500s. I listen to alot of music on my computer.

Is there even any games that need a PhysX card? I heard that new game designers are just using the idea of dedicating a entire core from a Kensfield or some thing to do physics instead once people start moving to quad cores... Actually alot longer story. Just interested to know if you have much use for that.

What motherboard do you have as well? You seemed to have left this very important detail out. Im guessing you've got some Asus Deluxe board tho.

Intel Desktop Board D975XBX is the motherboard

If i did not have this gfx i would upgrade to the 8800GTXs in SLi but seems a waste for 500 pound
75mhz in more core clock - 600mhz in memory and i don't really see the need for a shader 4.0 when most people don't even have a shader 3.0, probably be a future thing of thinking to upgrade or not..


http://www.ageia.com/physx/titles.html these are games supported so far

I have an MDA (T-Mobile Vario) with windows mobile and internet connection (besides the laptops).

AMD Athlon 64 x2 3800+
1 GB DDR2 533 MHZ
160GB SATA2 HD
GeForce 7300 LE
Sigmatel Audio (onboard)

It still can't run Oblivion :-P So wtf can I do? Just wait and in a few years when I buy a newer Quad-core PC Oblivion will be just fine... until then cry.
