Graphics Cards + CPUs + Ram

[oPless]

Just a straw poll of whos got what driving their monitor...

Now I don't want lots of "OMG thats shit" comments, just a list of what you have in your machine, and perhaps what you're aiming to buy in the next month or three


To start the ball rolling I've a the following (yes, I know it's oldish) in my "games" machine.

P4 - 2GHz - 1Gb Ram - GF3 Ti200

 

[The-Don]

P4 2.8GHz, 512MB Ram, Ti4600, I'm currently trying to justify sticking another 512mb ram in

 

[SheepCow]

Athlon XP - 2GHz - 512MB RAM - Radeon 9800 Pro

going to get this in Sept:
Athlon64 3200 - 1GB RAM - Radeon 9800 Pro (using my current card)

 

[FuzzyLogic]

Barton 2500+ > 1gig pc3200 RAM > radeon 9800pro



Planetside is a beast

 

[throdgrain]

XP3000+ / 9800 pro / 1024 pc2700 ram / Audigy soundcard 5.1

[Covenant]

Athlon XP 2200+ - 1Gb DDR - GeForce 5900 FX

Getting nForce2 & XP3000+ next month

 

[Xavier]

Can we move this to hardware plz Will?

Oh, and A64 FX-51 (2.2Ghz) / 2Gb Regd DDR / 6800 Ultra 256Mb

 

[Skyler]

P4 3.0Ghz Northwood / 1GB Corsair TwinX PC400 / Gainward GF4 Ti4400 Golden Sample

 

[Wazzerphuk]

At home: P4 2.4, 512mbDDR, geforce4 ti4200, 100gb

At work: P4 3.2, 496mbDDR, intel 828656 graphics controller (?), 120gb - is my pc, but our testing department goes spec wise from ok to WOWSORS

 

[Whipped]

Athlon XP 2600+ (2GHz) / 512MB of Corsair stuff / Radeon 8500 (128MB)

Looking at another 512MB of memory, a new graphics card (ATI or NVIDIA. Which?), new flatscreen 17" monitor and new desk in about a months time when I get paid for a job I'm currently finishing up.

 

[mank!]

P4 2Ghz / 1GB PC2100 DDR RAM / GeForce4 Ti4200

I think it's beginning to slowly melt though.

 

[Dweller]

Athlon 1900+ / Sapphire Ati 9600XT 256mb / 1gb ram / 120gb SATA HDD

Could really do with upgrading my processor though, as using high resolution to make the most of my tft screen tends to cause a drop in performance

 

[Jupitus]

P4 2.8, 1Gb DDR400, ATI 9800 pro

 

[Brynn]

P4 2.4 - 1gig DDR - 120 gig HD - 9600 GForce 4

 

[Vae]

XP2800, 1Gb DDR, Ti4200, 6 year old 17" Belinea CRT moniter (It's good quality and runs at 100Hz @ 1024x768)

The moniter is still going fine so I can't justify buying a new flatscreen yet

I'll probably upgrade the gfx card late this year as I don't play many FPS games so don't need the latest gfx card. The rest will prob be upgraded in about a years time.

 

[wyrd_fish]

1800 Duron (1600mhz at stock, overclocked to 1700mhz)
512mb (2X 256mb) PC3200 RAM
Asus Radeon 9600XT

and i hope to get an Athlon XP 3000+, and some more RAM soon

 

[old.user4556]

Athlon 3200+ / 1 GB Corsair LL CAS2 RAM PC3200 / 9800 Pro / Hitachi CML174SXWB 17" TFT / Optional 60" front projection.

Probably sell the 9800 Pro in the next month or so and upgrade to X800 Pro or XT.

 

[Collino]

Athlon Xp 2700+ / 512MB PC3200 / 9600 128mb

 

[itcheh]

P4 3.4 GHz, 2Gb DDR, Radeon 9800XT

 

[Clown]

AMD Athlon XP-M 2500+ @ 2500MHz
1GB GeiL PC3200 RAM
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro

I think I'm going to get a 'big' graphics card so I can move this 9800 Pro to my Shuttle (AMD Athlon XP 2600+, 1GB Crucial RAM, no graphics card).

 

[SoWat]

Athlon XP3000+
1Gb pc2700 Memory (2 x 512mb Crucial)
9800 pro

6 year old NEC C900 19" monitor, a great tube that'll only be replaced for a 18-19" TFT (or used in addition to).

P4 2.4 Ghz \ 2 x 256mb Corsair TwinX PC3200 LL \ GF4 Ti4600 \ 17" Compaq S700

 

[Yaka]

i recently whent from an oced 1.6a P4 to a 3 gig p4, and another cruicial 512mb stick got 40 odd fps on me old 9500 pro which i cant be arsed upgrading atm

 

[Ukle]

Athlon 64 3200, 1 Gb DDR, GeForce 5900XT

Powers 2 monitors (19 and 17 inch CTX)

Replacing the GeForce soon for a X800XT as soon as a UK shop has some in stock as it is the bottleneck on my system and decided cant risk the powersuckage of the 6800U

PS. Yes working with different size monitors is odd but I dont notice it anymore.

 

[Cyradix]

P4 2.8 - 1Gb DDR400 - GF FX 5900Pro

[JingleBells]

1.70GHz Cel - 512MB RAM - GeForce FX 5200 (But with a shite monitor so can only get 1280x1024x32Bit/60Hz )

Planning on getting a decent TFT to making lugging stuff to uni and back easier, and new mobo (mine is only a MSI-6533, with PC2100 mem slots and AGP 4x)
