It runs 99% of modern games perfectly fine. The only thing that I'd really like to upgrade is my monitor. But with no money to blow on such a thing I have to make do.

Intel I5 @ 3.8ghz
1Gb GTX 450
16Gb Ram
Foxconn Motherboard
1.5Tb disc space
24" full HD monitor
Windows 7 64bit

Runs every game on max settings very well

Overkill? Overkill. Unless you do more than play games on there.

Comes in handy when I play games like Skyrimjob and doing benchmarks and shit

1Gb GTX 450

GTX 450? Are you sure? I don't recall NVIDIA making a video card like that.

No such thing as overkill in this scenario. ;)

My box is so close to yukib1t's desktop 2 that I can't be bothered to post the specs.

I mean GTS lol

My computer sucks
AMD athlon 64 3400+
Radeon 9600XT
1 Gb Ram
160Gb disk space

It's able to run games from the Doom3 era quite fine at reduced settings. It barely runs Starcraft 2.

AMD A8-3850 Quad Core APU
Asus F1A75-M PRO Micro ATX Motherboard
G.SKILL Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1866 Memory
OCZ Vertex 3 Series MAX IOPS Edition 120GB SSD
FSP AURUM GOLD 600W Power Supply w/ 120mm Fan

9 Gb DDR3 RAM
128 Gb Crucial m4 SSD as boot\app\work\game drive
2x 1TB in RAID0 for storage, 1x 2TB for backup

Skyrim can only use 4 gigs.

Hey, DT770s are my gaming 'phones too.

Also, Skyrim can use more than 4gb now, it's been patched to allow that. And there were mods to let you use more than 4gb before it got patched.

My baby!

Intel core i7 960 @2.80Ghz
4GB DDR3 Ram
Radeon HD 6970
Be Quiet Dark Rock Advanced Cpu Fan

And some Novatech laptop.

I can beat that. This is my only machine, a Thinkpad T30 rescued from being dumpstered (my previous laptop was actually found next to a dumpster).

cpu : Mobile Pentium 4 (1.8 GHz)
mem : 512 MB
video: ATI Radeon Mobility M7 (output is 14-inch LCD)
audio: AC97
disk : 60 GB EIDE

It runs OpenBSD (no dual-booting). I usually underclock the cpu to 1.2 GHz (that's plenty enough). Memory usage is also usually under 50%, even with 128 MB dedicated to a RAM disk. It runs all the games I care about (90's era or earlier), and I also occasionally use it for contract work.

I'm sure there's probably someone here with an even older machine setup with Win95 or even just plain DOS. So long as they do what you want/need, it's all that really matters. :)

The DT770's are indeed excellent, and very comfortable considering their size.

Skyrim can't use more than 4Gb, as it's a 32 bit application. However it can use up to 3Gb of adressable space under a 32bit OS, whereas normally an application can only address 2Gb under such an OS. On a 64 bit OS it can use up to 4Gb. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2005/06/01/423817.aspx

I've got a couple. My desktops:

Gaming: Athlon II 2.8GHz, 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD & 1TB HDD, Radeon 4870
Music: Core 2 Quad 2.4GHz, 4GB RAM, 750GB HDD, GeForce 7300LE
Built for girlfriend: Core 2 Duo 2.6GHz, 4GB RAM, 100 & 120GB HDD, GeForce 9600GT

I also have a Pentium, 486, 286 and IBM 5150 that I have yet to fix. My laptops:

Main/work: Pentium x2 2GHz, 3GB RAM, 250GB HDD, Intel gfx
Music: Athlon 3200+, 1GB RAM, 40GB HDD, Radeon 200M
Retro: Pentium 2 266MHz, 256MB RAM, 4GB HDD, NeoMagic

I also have two netbooks - one that I'll probably sell for parts and another that I may give to my girlfriend.

3.3GB total to be exact.

Damn, you're right I checked the RAM usage and it was only around 2.2gb of RAM, ah well I'm sure in the near future there will be some games that will push my hardware.

Desktop:
HP Pavillion a6000
AMD Athlon X2 Dual-core @ 2.4ghz
2GB DDR2 RAM
512MB ASUS Video card (Nvidia chipset)

Windows Vista SP2

Netbook:
ASUS Eee-PC R101
Intel Atom Single core @ 1.66ghz
1GB RAM
80GB HDD
Windows XP SP3

I'm saving to build a new desktop now... Currently have £410 saved. Would be my first built computer so not sure what to actually get.

• Core 2 Quad 9650 @ 3ghz
  
• 6gb Corsair DDR2
  
• AMD Radeon HD 4870 1GB
  
• Corsair TX750 750w PSU (Overkill!)
  
• Logitech G11 Keyboard
  
• Razer Mamba laser mouse
  
• Samsung 22" monitor @ 1680x1050
  

my desktop went fubar, so until i buy some new parts or a completely new pc, i'm using my music production lappy for everyday use...which i don't really like doing, so i restrict what i download, etc.

basically:
8 gigs of DDR2
400 gig hdd
Dual-core CPU

since it is my music production and dj'ing workstation i try to keep the other uses to a minimum.
i go online with it and i play quakelive with it.
every now and then i download a GOG that i just HAVE to re/play.

doom and mapping are on hold until i get a new pc, but it's ok because i needed to take a break from that stuff anyway and i have everything backed-up on an external hdd as well as my net e-mail accounts.

Would love to get another GTX550 for SLI, but the damn sata ports are vertical and foul the other PCI-e slot. Stupid Mobo design.
