How powerful is the computer you use to go on GFF with?

Just wondering, since apparently my P4 2.66 is at the lower end of the spectrum these days. If I'm missing any large segments of the modern processor market, let me know and I'll add them to the poll.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Using a P4 2.4C here, with 1GB of memory (which is not enough for Firefox, lawl)

Athlon 64 with something or other amount of processor speed. 512MB of RAM. The computer basically runs worse than my old Celeron 900 with 128MB of RAM, though.

Shit, I don't know everything.

Everyone who responded to this so far is still present, right? Hang tight while I retool the poll, then you can all vote again.

Double Post:
There, you can all vote again. Hopefully I got it right this time.

Pretty slow by today's standards. Most Wanted lags on it, so does BFME 2. So, it's slow. Can't wait to get an upgrade.

Pentium 4, 2.4GHz, 512MB RAM.

But I find it's not really the processor that sucks ass when I want to do stuff, but the RAM. 'specially when I'm working on a website and have Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Opera, Internet Explorer, and Firefox all open at once.

I could mention that when I joined GFF, I was on a Pentium 133. It had 64Mb of ram, which didn't help for speed either.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

  • P4 Prescott 3.0GHz processorheats up the room nicely when doing long encoding jobs.
  • 1536MB RAMenough to run Battlefield 2 smoothly.
  • ATI Radeon 9600XT video carda little anemic by today's standards but it gets the job done.
  • M-Audio Revolution 5.1 sound carda little fussy with games but well worth it for recording.
  • Plextor 40×/12×/40× CD-RW drivein its second computer. Getting a little long in the tooth but still works great.
  • Plextor/BenQ 16× DVD±RW DL drivehave yet to actually burn a DL disc with it.

Gonna have to get a new power supply if I add anything else!

My good old Athlon XP @ 2.2Ghz (3200+ speeds). I fully intend to get another 8 months to a year out of this thing before I grudgingly upgrade. There's also my 800Mhz P3 Laptop, my 2.4Ghz Intel at work, and the other machines around my house.

I was speaking idiomatically.

AMD Athlon 64 4000+ Clawhammer @ 2.4ghz
ASUS A8n-SLi Deluxe
GeForce 7800GT/OC 256mb PCI-e
2gb OCZ Dual-Channel RAM
600W BFGtech PSU


Whenever I get around to it, im gonna reformat and do a bunch of overclocking and try and get it to at least 2.8ghz.

Built it for only $1600, mainly to play Oblivion (which is a huge letdown of a game), but am waiting for a few games to come out that will suit it better. HL2, Doom3, Quake4 all run full max everything @ 1600x1200 with no slowdown. Can run F.E.A.R at 1024x768 with no slowdown with all turned on too, havent tried at a higher resolution though.

Yeah, it's a gaming rig

I have two compuers. The main one is a Dell Desktop, 2.8 GHz Pentium 4 with 512 MB of ram and a 128mb graphics card, and the one I use on the go is a Compaq laptop with an Athlon 2 GHz, 512 MB of ram, and shit for graphics. Both are running on Windows XP, with the Compaq on home edition and the Dell on Media Center edition.

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.
