How about a post your PC thread?

[Vinny]

I don't know if there's been a thread like this before but anybody here up for a post your PC thread? I know a lot of you have some sweet computers so they must look cool too.

I'll post mine tomorrow... I can't find our camera at the moment.

[Kayden]

My PC has a shitty aluminum case. I made it to play games, not to 'rice out' as it were.

Specs are in the sig with a 20.1" widescreen and a 19" monitors.

Oh yea, and the Logitech Z-5500 5.1 speaker system.

[Vinny]

But fried rice is sooooo good. How can you not like it... not even a little?:lol:

:drool:

Now I want eggrolls... fucker.

My PSU has blue LEDs inside it with a clear fan. My motherboard has red LEDs on the bottom.

Those were things I found out after I bought them. I'm really glad I don't have a window or anything. All that light would make it a bitch to sleep.

[varsitygamer]

you'd think i'd learn a lesson from the "post your pic" thread, not to be the first one to post a picture... but here

Not really, leave. Now. :evil:

My PC doesn't look anything all that special. Just a standard Dell E510 case (generic pic (http://www.pcmag.com/slideshow_viewer/0,1205,l=&p=1&s=1564&a=161102&po=1&i=1,00.asp?p=y)). It's really nothing worth taking photos of. I'm much more happy about what on the interior of the case after some upgrades.

Here's the specs:

- Pentium 4 3.4 GHz w/HT
- 2GB DDR2 Ram
- 160 GB hard-drive (7,200 RPM)
- 200 GB hard-drive (7,200 RPM)*
- EVGA 7600 GT*
- Auzen Tech X Mystique sound card*
- DVD-rom drive
- DVD+RW drive (Dual layer)
- 520W OCZ Powerstream PSU*
- 4 port USB 2.0 add-on card*
- extra 80mm fan case*

Accessories/peripherals:
- 17" Dell E176FP LCD monitor
- Logitech G15 keyboard*
- Razer Copperhead mouse (blue)*
- Silver Icemat pad*
- Logitech X-530 speakers*
- Dell AIO 924 Printer

* - upgraded after purchase

I didn't plan on doing so many upgrades when I first got it, but thanks to some decent deals I was able to get most of the stuff for pretty cheap. The $20 Google Checkout promo at Buy.com (along with their surprisingly decent prices to begin with) helped reduce the cost of a lot of the accessories. The Razer went from its retail $80 to $33 or so. The most expensive upgrade was the PSU and I got that for about $90.

Is it the greatest PC in the world? No, but should last me for quite some time. I'm pretty damn pleased with it.

[lordwow]

I have a 4ish year old Dell which I've been upgrading to keep up with the times.

- P4 2.53 GhZ
- 1 Gig RAM
- 64 MB NVidia GeForce 6600
- 120 GB Hard Drive
- 80 GB Hard Drive
- DVD-ROM Drive
- CD-RW Drive
- Some Altec Lansing Speakers and Sound Card
- 17" Kogi Flatscreen LCD (which is still working perfectly after 4 years, go figure)
- Logitech (not sure what model) mouse
- Standard Dell Quietkey Keyboard
- No Printer (had one, but I get free printing at work/university)

It's still Ok for gaming, I can run the stuff I want to play on here, but it's starting to wane on old stuff.

I also use a 1 year old 15" Apple Powerbook, which has nearly identical specs, but I use it for audio/video editing and very minor gaming (Civ IV mostly),

I'm planning on upgrading to a Mac Pro desktop (if I can get Windows/Mac OS on the same computer at that time). My gf and I will split the cost, but it's still about $2k a piece, but the machine is a beast.

I don't know, but seeing SlaughterX's sweet setup made it worth it.

I saw this and was about to say that... hey, I made a thread like that a long time ago and not many people were for it. And then I realized.. it was my thread.:lol:

Ironically, I never took a pic of my set up... I should take one but damn, my set up is so ancient compared to some the sets here.:-|

[Razzuel]

My desk is way too messy...maybe I should clean my desk and transform my optimus prime into robot mode because he is in truck mode now, before taking a picture...

[daphatty]

How do people even find threads this old?

He used the Search feature. Too bad we don't have a karma system. I'd give whoever bumped the thread some love. ;)

[PuNK45S]

I don't have any pics of my current setup, but I'll list it all out the boring way.

AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+
Nvidia GeForce 7900 GT (256mb)
3gig RAM
260gb internal HD
500gb MyBook
16x BenQ DVD-RW Drive
48x Sony DVD Drive
Built-In 12-in-1 Card Reader

Logitech G5 laser mouse
Logitech G11 Keyboard
Logitech 5.1 Surround PC speakers
(not sure of the exact model, they look like the X-540 but without the control pod)

Sceptre X22WG-Gamer (22in widescreen HD monitor)
Sceptre X20G-Naga3 (20in widescreen monitor)

[crystalklear64]

The search thing is junk, especially with finding stuff from what... 2 years ago?

[kainzero]

Man, don't you love that itty bitty power supply thing at the bottom?
That took me like an hour to work with.

Good job on the wiring though, I couldn't manage to close the back door with all my cables sticking out.

[Hostile]

2.20 GHz AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 4200+
Radeon X1950 PRO (256MB)
2 GB RAM
Microsoft Optical mouse ($20)
Fragmat WoW mousepad (thanks to WoW Insider)
Logitech keyboard ($20)
17" Hanns-G LCD monitor (not widescreen)

It'll probably run most of the games I want to play just fine. SC2, CoH, Mythos, Battlefield Heroes,... I'm already owning most of everyone in TF2.

[Vinny]

I had the wiring very well hidden... but when my first PS died and I replaced with this Corsair, I just didn't bother re-hiding most of the wiring. Way too much work.

Anyway, here's the PC from the side.
http://s11.photobucket.com/albums/a187/fyreboltx/th_pc1.jpg (http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a187/fyreboltx/pc1.jpg)

I need to take a picture of my PC just to show off my hilariously huge heatsink. (Tuniq Tower)

[SOSTrooper]

I need to take a picture of my PC just to show off my hilariously huge heatsink. (Tuniq Tower)

Haha, I have that heatsink in my other PC, it's so huge and heavy that I actually bent a large paper clip and used it to hook the heatsink to the case for weight support.

[SpreadTheWord]

I got it because I was THIS close to snapping my motherboard in half with Intel's push pin style heatsink. Gotta love screws.

It's great though, I'm running a $120 CPU at 3.0Ghz and when I get a dual core, I can use the same monster heatsink to overclock/keep cool.

[SlaughterX]

I obviously didn't build it, but here's what the inside of an XPS 630i looks like, just added the PCI-E soundcard.

You didn't get the H2C cooling system, I take it? Lucky you. I saw one last year in the dorms and the guy hated it because it took up so much room and wasn't that great of a cooler.:lol:

BTW, how long are those 8800GTs? I want to get one my I can't find anything on how long they are... I'm afraid they won't fit my case.

[Chacrana]

As far as I know, the GT isn't nearly the beast that the GTX or Ultra is.

The Ultra is fucking ridonkulous. Like, when you actually see that shit IRL, its an experience.

[InuFaye]

2 8800gts in SLI beat a single Ultra.

and the 9800gtx is faster then an ultra.

9800gx2 is the fastest.

Ive got:

AMD Athlon X2 6400+ Black Edition
EVGA 8800GT Superclocked
4 gigs of Corsair XMS
Antec P180
G15 Keyboard
G7 Mouse
19" Samsung Widescreen.
