Post your main working/gaming rig for all to see
 
What system do you use most daily/weekly, is it cutting edge tech or old gear slower then a Pentium 1 100Mhz?


my rig:

Processing: A64 3000+ S754 with 1GB Ram
Video& Sound: 6800GT / Audigy2 ZS Pro / 2x 17"TFT / 5.1 THX Creative Soundworks
Storage: about 400GB divided over a few HDDs (Raptor 74GB for games) + 12x Plextor DVDRW
Case&Power: Coolermaster miditower with 550W PSU
Cooling: Scythe Samurai and 4x80mm casefans

things to improve: CPU cooling & case cooling: it's way too loud:)

Sidney 2nd November 2005 16:07

I have a few I use daily; I'd say three of them being on 16 hours/day.

This one I use slightly more -

Processing: A64 3000+ S939 with 1GB Ram
Video & Sound: 6200PCX/Onboard
Storage: 160GB SATA; DVD & 16X DVD RW
Case & Power: Cheapo X-Dreamer II, 500W S-12
Cooling: JMC Pheonix 70 + Chill Vent II with 5x80mm case fans & 7 Volt ~1,800 RPM, 44 dBA 12 inches away.

Things to improve: None, it serves my purpose well.

wutske 2nd November 2005 16:32

This is the one I normaly use the most

Processing: AXP2500+ (barton)@2.2Ghz
Video& Sound: 9600Pro (474/324)/NvNF² Soundstorm & Ozika HM30Q3
Storage: 120Gb WD SATA hdd, NEC 8x dlDVD+-RW
Case&Power: No case & Aopen 350w
Cooling: Thermalright SLK947u, TT Smart Case Fan2 (cpu), 92mm titan ,(power-reg, mostly off), 60mm unknown (memory).

Not the most powerfull machine, but it still works :super: . Hopefully it'll last me another year :excellent

* AXP1800+ (currently running at 1200Mhz due to instability problems) - cooled by El Cheapo Modded Volcano9
* 512MB RAM
* 40GB HD
* GeForce4 Ti4200
* Creative Live! Value
* NoName case, Chieftec 340W PSU

agent #2 2nd November 2005 20:41

*A64 3000+ @ 2,7 + 1GB ram
*7800GT and onboard sound
*120 + 40 GB and a simple 16x DVD-rom (LG)
*Case: new ThermalTake Soprano :love: + OCZ powerstream 470 watt
*Cooling cpu: xp-120 + papst, case: 2*120 mm + 92 mm

But most of the time I use the school computers to work on. I don't know their specs completely but the cpu's are PIII 1000 MHz.

The system I use most would be my laptop:
Dell Inspiron 510m
Intel Pentium Mobile 1.4GHz
512MB RAM (2*256)
60 GB hard drive
DVD/CD-rw combo
Intel gaphics
Dell wireless b/g
15" screen, 1400*1050

this is alway on unless it's dying battery ran out. Runs eve online when I'm home, and I use it for work and GPS. It's not quite as actively used as my main rig, but still.

the maniak 3rd November 2005 23:32

BlackRabbit 4th November 2005 07:08

Well actually, I use the computers@work more than my own rig...

I use a bunch of systems over there:
2 windows (XP) systems, I think P4, though don't really know as I've never seen it booting before (runs 24/7).

And then a bunch of "LANMARK" computers, I think they are P1 233's. Slow machines anyway, but they are mainly used for LAnmark, an eighties reservation-and-other-stuff system our hotel uses. (they still run on Win 3.11 btw)

yes, several times, already 2 mails to the Account Manager BeNeLux, he replied that the case would be send in the first week of October but until now nothing happend.

Last week I even called him, he would check with the Marketing department, send another mail 2 days ago, he read the mail but no reply.
Yesterday I contacted the marketing department via the website, still waiting.... :(
