I'm content with my current computer:
- XFX 8800 GTS
- 250 GB SATA Hard drive, 160 GB IDE Hard drive (I wish I could get rid of this...)
- External NexStar 1 TB drive (modded the thing to plug into my computers PSU rather than have another stupid AC adapter)
- OCZ 550 W PSU
- 4 x 1 GB 800 MHz Corsair DDR2 RAM
- Samsung SyncMaster 245BW
- Intel E4500 (OC'd to 2.93 Ghz)
- Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L Motherboard
- Random Zalman CPU cooler that doesn't work so great (heat pipes are a stupid idea on a CPU heat sync...)
- Debian + VirtualBox Windows XP with a Windows 7 dualboot (not the RC version
)
- Case I made out of pegboard
It still plays 90% of games fine... probably won't upgrade for a while :p
I care my about what I want my computer to do... I don't care how fast it is as long as when I wake up, it's done :p.
EDIT: Oh, I almost forgot; I also have a Logitech g15 keyboard. Greatest. Keyboard. Ever.
