I'm on a G4 700 MHz. The problem is that I've had it for maybe four years now, and the computer is definitely older than that. How it manages to keep running is completely beyond me.

Schadenfreude May 6, 2006 11:13 AM

I am winner.

P3 900 MHz with 384 mb ram.

Fast enough most of the time, although I do wish that I had a faster CPU during my sudden urges to add on shitloads of fx/channels in FL Studio. And, of course, to keep up with the Football Manager series. Arg.

Mine is a Pentium 4 2.4 Ghz with 2 gigs of ram. I also have 600GB of HD space to use. I really should finish setting up my VGM music FTP with all the music I have from SD.

Running an Athlon XP 2500+ clocked up to 3200+, I was planning on upgrading this summer but I've decided to wait till next summer (Winter earliest), seeing as my money will be going on a PS3 and Xbox 360, I won't have enough left for a worthy upgrade.

SuperNova May 6, 2006 12:19 PM

Let's see... I'm sporting a nice P4 2.84 ghz processor with 1 GB of RAM. Since I don't do any serious gaming on it, works beautifully for my needs.

Put it this way, at least I can run Doom 3 on it.

Ryuu May 6, 2006 12:23 PM

I'm on my laptop which is running an fun AMD Athlon 64 2.0 ghz processor with the average 512 Megs of RAM.


No complaints as it does enough for me - except run Call of Duty 2 at medium settings...

KnowsNothing May 6, 2006 12:48 PM

Intel Whatever at 700 MHZ
256 MB RAM
A nice big 28 GB harddrive (fortunatley I have a 150 GB external..)
Radeon 7500 graphics card with a whopping 64 MB onboard memory

It's pretty terrible, yeah, but I'm in the middle of upgrading. I'm looking to jump to a 3.2 GHZ Pentium D with one or two gigs of RAM. It'll be like LIGHTNING to me.

Rockgamer May 6, 2006 12:53 PM

AMD Turion 64 Mobile Processor, which is 1.8 GHz. I guess that's kinda fast, as I'm not too savvy about these things.

Unforgiven May 6, 2006 01:38 PM

Currently using AMD Athlon 64 3800+ X2.

neus May 6, 2006 03:32 PM

AMD Athlon 64 3000+ here too. Throw in a gig of RAM and a 6800GS, and you have a komjutah poweful enough to browse even the toughest of the websites! Why, I can scroll through GFF at SIXTY fps.
I am sure you are amazed.

Franky Mikey May 6, 2006 04:10 PM

P4 3GHZ here. Just recently upped it to 1 GB RAM, so it's cool and all. I'm surprised how decent it has remained to this day, considering it's three years old.

The main lacking area is the video card, it's "only" a Radeon 9200. Good enough for Painkiller and HL2, but I have my doubts about the current and upcoming generations of games. Good thing I'm not much of a gamer anymore.

spikeh May 6, 2006 04:41 PM

I'm running an Athlon 64 3700 at 2.4Ghz with 1GB of RAM. The CPU is very fast, and does everything I want to do; although some more RAM would help out Battlefield 2. Need this computer to last me for another two years until uni, as the previous two blew up on me due to insufficient cooling. Used to have a Pentium 4 2.4Ghz, and being honest the speed increase from that to this new PC is barely noticeable.

Fjordor May 6, 2006 04:51 PM

I've got an Athlon XP 3200+. I've had this since winter of 2003, and have had no problems whatsoever with the entire system, not even hard drive issues or virii.
Over this time however, I have upgraded my memory from 512MB of PC2700 RAM to 1GB of 3200 RAM.
Right now, I have a Nvidia 6600 Graphics card in my system, which I thought would be an excellent card. Little did I know that I totally got ripped off with a crappy card. I've notice the GeForce4 card that I originally had in it works much better than this piece of shit. I really should think about getting a new one.

Paco May 6, 2006 04:57 PM

I have 3 computers I surf with. Most of the time I'm on my Dell Inspiron 8200 laptop (2 ghz P4, 1 GB RAM) but all my downloading and music collecting happens on my Macs, most notably a Dual 2 ghz PowerMac G5 with 1 GB RAM (it needs more) and a PowerMac G4 733mhz also with 1 GB RAM. This last one will soon become a server. :D

spikeh May 6, 2006 05:03 PM

What is wrong with a nVidia 6600 graphics card? It should easily outperform any Geforce4 series card, even the Titaniums. If its instability, it could be heat issues or driver issues.

Why Am I Allowed to Have Gray Paint May 6, 2006 05:17 PM

I'm "other". I use the same computer for browsing as I do for work (at home), which is a basic dual-processer system with a couple of Opteron 252s (2.6GHz) sitting on the board. There's also 2GB of RAM which is becoming pretty standard now I guess, and a 6800 Ultra graphics card with a stupidly large heatsink on it. It's good enough to run FEAR smoothly and most other games at a reasonable resolution, but I am not much of a game-player. I bought that card because it can be soft-modded into a Quadro.

Dizzy May 6, 2006 05:27 PM

Laptop Centrino Pentium M 1.8ghz with 512 of ram. It's pretty fast for almost everything i need (video editing and stuff). The only problem is that the damn video card (Intel 915gm) is not supported for a lot of games. So, i can play The Two Thrones, but not the Sands of Time for example. Or I can't turn on the flashlight in Silent Hill 2. I think the pixel shader or something like that is missing.

Anyways, I'm so happy with it.

David Deluxe May 6, 2006 05:41 PM

I'm currently using a PC with a whooping AMD Athlon 1,2 GHz, 256 MB Ram and an incredible breathtaking NVidia Geforce 2 MX. Actually the PC is still good enough for the daily Internet life, but I'll get a new one this summer. If you ask me, the PC's CPU isn't even that important for games and so on, everything above 2,5 GHz should be sufficient. I'm going to spend $800 and I'll probably buy a AMD Athlon 64 3700+, 1 GB Ram and a ATI Radeon 1800XT. I've waited for a new PC since ages, so I guess I can take the liberty of such an expensive purchase once in a time.

Westfield May 6, 2006 05:44 PM

AMD 3000+ 939 64

(u didnt do two seperate ones for 939 and 754 =o)

Mucknuggle May 6, 2006 06:22 PM

AMD Athlon 64 3000+ here. It runs pretty well. I think the 1 gig of RAM helps a lot since I always have Firefox open with a bunch of other stuff.

Sol May 6, 2006 08:46 PM

My internet computer sports an AMD Athlon XP 3000+, rated about 2.1 Ghz, with 512 megs of RAM. Since all it has for video is a measley Nvidia GeForce4 GPU, it's only really useful for word processing, storage, and internet browsing.

I used to have a sickly HP with a 500 Mhz Pentium III and 128 megs of RAM on dialup when I first started lurking. Brings back memories of the Audio days and hours of time spent downloading at 3kbs.

kupomog May 6, 2006 08:59 PM

AMD Athlon XP, 3200+, ~2.2GHz. No clue what it means! But it's so much better than our first computer, that's all I need to be happy. This one is about 2½ years old now, and I'm making sure to take good care of it now. Our last comp had little to no maintenance but managed to last 7 years before dying. I felt sorry for it (yeah, I have a problem where I feel sorry for inanimate objects), so I kept the tower in my room and cleaned out a pound of dust...

Yggdrasil May 6, 2006 09:53 PM

1.7 GHz P4. and looking at the poll results I feel obsolete :( .

JasonTerminator May 6, 2006 11:03 PM

Currently using my Pentium M 1.6Ghz lappy.

My main is a AMD Athlon X2 4200+ with 2GB of RAM and a 7800GT. I just built this last November, hoping to time it with the Oblivion release, but it was not meant to be.

And my previous computer was a Pentium 4 1.4Ghz. (There WERE P4s that were 1.4Ghz, so Other must be changed.)
