Computer Specs
Crysis came out a little while ago and I know a couple that did or wanted to upgrade their computers just to play that game and so the subject was brought up what to buy.
Now that some got their new computers I thought why not get a idea of what computers people have now, even if you didn't just upgrade.
This might be Random Chat but I'm thinking this is more for General Discussion because it was posted here a long while ago and wasn't considered bad.
Anyhoo, post your computer specs.
Mine:
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4400+, 2.2GHzx2
RAM: OCZ Platinum 2048MB RAM
Video Card: eVGA NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT KO
Monitor: Dell 2005FPW
Sound Card: Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum
Speakers/Headphones: Zalman ZM-RS6F+M 5.1 Headphones
Keyboard: Logitech Elite
Mouse: Logitech MX518
OS: Windows XP Pro SP2
Hard Drive: ~550GB Total
The only thing I've upgraded to recently was the 8800GT.
And I also have a Logitech G5 mouse and I should switch to it but I'm lazy(It really is a awesome mouse)

Easiest way I know is to download Everest and go to Computer/Summarydxdiag?
With dxdiag you can only see the CPU and RAM but the rest you can find with Everest
Uber, you and I have very similar specs:
CPU: S939 A64-X2 Dual Core 4200+, overclocked to 2.5ghz
CPU Fan: Zalman 9500cu
RAM: OCZ Platinum EL 2048MB RAM
Video Card: eVGA NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS
Monitor: BenQ 19" LCD
Sound Card: Built-in on DFI LanParty board
Keyboard: Logitech wireless
Mouse: Logitech MX-581
OS: Windows XP Pro SP2 / WinVista Ultimate (dual-boot)
Hard Drive: 1100GB Total + 160GB WD Passport + 8GB OCZ flash drive
other drives: DVD burner, 7-in-1 card reader
Case: Antec NineHundred
PSU: Mushkin 620W with snap-on cabling
other things: Logitech webcam, Logitech Formula wheel&pedals,Samsung Color Laser printer, good headphones, cheap-o 2+1 speakers, and SoundMax superbeam microphone
I'm happy with every aspect of my setup, and only thing that's next on upgrade list (though not a priority) is to go from 19" LCD to 22" or bigger widescreen LCD. And maybe better sound/speakers. But I'm riding out with my 939 chip for at least another 2 or 3 years.

xpsuser, none of those appear to be gaming rigs, right? the only decent video card is on your slowest rig with smallest monitor.

The only games I play at the moment is Neverwinter Nights 1 & 2. For that, the laptop is more than enough.
I see. didn't realize #3 was a laptop.

Sorry, should have made that clear.
Acer Aspire 5315-2942
Intel Celeron processor 540 (1.86 GHz, 533 MHz FSB, 1 MB L2 cache)
252 MB Mobile Intel Graphic Media Accelerator X3100
2.5GB DDR2
15.4" WXGA Acer CrystalBrite LCD (8ms/220-nit)
80GB HDD
DVD-Super Multi DL
8802.11b/g WLAN
Windows Vista Home Basic
I just copied that off the sticker on the laptop. :P
I plug it into a Philips stereo with a subwoofer and all for audio.
I've also got a 1TB external hard drive so I'm not concerned about the small hard drive.
Not the best laptop, by no means, but it's fine for my graphic designing, iPod updating, Sims playing, and web surfing.
