Re: Lavarinth
I had a super awesome laptop but it died not a week ago. So I went back to my old Vaio desktop from 2001. It's the same machine I did all my SC/WC3 modding on, the only thing changed is it has an additional harddrive, otherwise the same machine. Nostalgia ftw.
So the vaio:
1.6 GHz Pentium 4
512 MB Ram
Nvidia Riva TNT2 64 mb
2x 80 GB HD
This machine owned face 7 years ago.

Now with 50% more lol, 50% more win, and 100% phlail.

That's right aa7 has a 15 inch one... 
I just upgraded all my shit last week, so my computer is now sweet
CPU: Intel E8500
Mobo: Asus Rampage (x48 Chipset)
Memory: 4gb OCZ Platinum DDR2
Graphics: ATi Radeon HD 4870 (As good as nVidia's $600 gpu but for half the price)
OS: Vista with mad shit turned off
PSU: Antec TruePower II 1000W
I also have a sticker on the case that says "Fuck Integrated Graphics"
The coolest thing about my computer is the fact that the mobo has an internal on/off and reset button. The buttons are for system builders who can't bother to plug the actual power switch in.
The coolest thin

2gb PC8500 Corsair
Athlon X2 6000+
Asus Xonar D2
1tb Samsung, I forget the speed on this but it was faster than raptors
750gb seagate I *think*
120gb Maxtor iirc
24" Samsung Syncmaster 245T
I think my CPU is bottlenecking me but I'm not going to invest in a new system just to fix that quite yet.

Re: Lavarinth
Aside from getting my fucking desktop fixed, buying a huge new harddrive for it, and whatever other upgrades I'll need to run SC2, another tech purchase I'm thinking of making in the medium term is possibly getting a Macbook to see what that's like...

Re: Lavarinth
My PC has...
AMD Athlon X2 4400+ Dual core processor
Shitty motherboard
2.5 gigs of RAM
Radeon X800GT 256mb (AGP, so possibility of upgrading)
120gb Westgate, 180gb Maxtor
2 DVD-RW drives (only one works most of the time)
Ultra 600W PSU
17in LCD monitor and a 17in CRT monitor.
Unfortunately, in order to upgrade anything, I would have to buy a whole new motherboard. And then I would have to get a new proc, new memory, and a new video card... Totally not worth upgrading. Considering just buying a new computer all together.
I am definitely getting a 17in MacBook Pro for my Graduation Present, though, since I already have a vehicle.

Re: Lavarinth
2 desktops and a fast laptop for work.
One laptop is the old shit. The other is quite ok shit. It pleased me by playing Devil May Cry 4 flawlessly, which I wasn't expecting. I don't know the specs.

Re: Lavarinth
Oh, I guess I should answer.
My home computer currently has some of the following:
AMD Athlon X2 5300+ Dual Core
An asus motherboard that you wouldn't care about other than brand.
4 gigs of RAM (currently on XP so maxed at 3)
500 GB Hard drive
Nvidia 8800 GTX
1000 Watt power supply
24 inch widescreen LCD
.. Basically [almost] overpowered.

Why do you need so much space? How many drives is that?

I couldn't think of how to fill up 1 TB, 4.2 is ridiculous.
