 You might want to get a move on then, you only have a couple of days left to do so ;)

 Me? I have the cheapest computer I couldbuy new two years ago (thereabout) as I mostly use it for Web surfing and other Internet stuff and am most likely to play old games on it than new games (I will play the new games in a few years when they are cheap and the computers that can run them well are cheap too ;))

It's got a sempron 2400+, a GeForce 6200 and 1.25 gigs of RAM.

No beast but it serves its purpose well.

I can feel your pain dude :D I visited my family for the holidays and I got to use their BEASTLY 220 mghz COMPAQ, running WINDOWS ME, oh my god.... if I had to use that thing for anything other than aim I'd have cried.

Oh thats bad :D here it runs pretty good, given that nothing else is running and that the computer is direcly after a fresh restart. No Im browsing with five tabs, but I had to disable pictures  to be able to do that with acceptable speed. Posting in this forum still lags one sentence behind :)

I'm very happy with my PC. It's a budget-gaming system that I built in November 2006, so it's celebrated it's first birthday now and continues to serve me very well!

Intel Core 2 Duo E6400, overclocked to 2.8GHz
PCI-E Nvidia GeForce 7600GT 256MB
2GB Corsair Value Ram

In 2008 I did plan to buy an XBox 360 at some point but instead I'm going to upgrade this with a new graphics card. The 8 Series will be at a great price range once Nvidia's new 9 series is introduced, and an 8 Series card will see this computer running nicely for a long time to come. I don't need no Crysis or anything more for my gaming needs.

In time I intend on saving up big loads of cash and building a powerhouse of a gaming PC, but I intend to get another 3, possibly 4 years out of this system yet. I'm in no rush whatsoever.



 

 
 

I'd say I have a medium powered computer with heat being my greatest enemy right now with a case that could have better airflow with wires everywhere inside (rather just get a better case instead).

e2160 CPU (1.8ghz overclocked to 3.0ghz)
7800gt video card
and 2 gigs of ram

I can run games with some high settings and still be playable, but more power would be helpful to have a smooth experience.



Athlon 64 x2 4200+
2 Gb Ram
Ati X1950 GT

I'm on an HP Laptop...

dv9500 Notebook
Intel Core Duo T7250 @ 2.00GHz
2GB Ram

Lol, work laptop...playing on the forums during work! Terrible.



Well, I now only have access to a PS3 & 360...Plan on buying a wii soon (lol, if I can ever find one available!) but will probably wait until some of the major RPG's come out like Dragon Quest & Tales, etc.

Anyhow, I'm so far behind in games to play that I'm not in a huge hurry (lol, haven't even gotten a chance to finish God of War II yet!)
