My 4 year old PC which I have upgraded along the way, well only the graphics and cooling everything is what I originally built

CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 - 2.4GHz
CPU Cooler: Custom water cooled loop
Motherboard: Asus P5KC
Ram: Corsair 2 x 2GB DDR2
GPU(Graphics card): XFX 5870 1GB (Was originally nVidia 9600GT)
PSU(Power Supply): Coolmaster 650 Watt
HDD(Hard drive): Samsung Spinpoint F1 1TB, Western Digital 500GB
Optical Drive: Sony DVD
Case: Inwin F430
Case fans: 2 x 120mm fans on the radiator
OS(Operating System): Windows 7, Vista, XP

Monitor: Samsung 19", I-INC 19" set up in eyefinity (wish I had a third screen)

Other than your monitor and cooling your original PC was my ideal pc when i first learnt how to build computers :P Sadly i was short of cash and wanted play games so all i could do was to bump the GPU up to a HD 4770 (between 9800 Gt and 250 Gt in performance).

I had that card, I burnt it up loooool it honesty had overheating issues.

Mine was fine with that, the problem for me was the the VGA port kept on coming undone. Every 3 or 4 weeks i'd have to remove it and screw it in again.... got it was a piece of ****....

I don't know honestly the screws holding it in place we loose and just got looser until it came off, poorly designed and poorly made. They were able to get complacent as ATI were even worse at the time of the takeover. Competition is really needed.

I know, ATI and Nvidia just being the 2 major competing firms in the market, is just not fair, the prices are ridiculous sometimes.

Built in late 2010, with a few upgrades works like a charm just need to get a SSD and some more drives when the price goes down.


Laptop:
HP G6 something
CPU: AMD A8 3500 APU
RAM 6GB Samsung 122mhz
GPU: AMD 6620G Discrete Graphic (1GB RAM allocated)

AMD APU is pretty awesome for light gaming compared to a i3 with built in graphics. Battlefield 3 on Low - Medium runs really well. Especially for sub £350

Storage for my Films / TV Shows / Music and Backups. For now my 2x 6850 is overclocked to 2x 6870 performance. Dont see the point of adding another for 3 way crossfire, i get constant high frame rates on single monitor and decent frame rates with eyefinity. Maybe when more intensive games come out il consider it.

[James A]

AMD Sempron
2gb ram
500gb hdd
