Now, men are scared about the sizes of their penises. In the future, it'll be how much processing power you have.
That said, what are your PC's specs? I got myself an AMD Athlon XP 2200+ @ 1.8Ghz, crapy ECS K7VMM+ motherboard, 512MB PC2100 DDR RAM, Sapphire ATi Radeon 9600 w/ 256MB VRAM, 40GB HDD (not sure on RPM). Soon I'll be purchasing a wonderful AMD Athlon 64 3000+ and an Asus K8N, so I can clock it up to just under 3Ghz! Nice!

i got a 2800xp barton (now watercooled)
msi k7n2delta 2
1.5gb ddr (333mhz)
msi fx5700le (default core speed 250 default mem 400) (but running at 450 core and 533 mem) (18k aqua marks on default settings 25k on overclocked (aquamark 3))
plenty of hdd space
thinking of getting a 6800gt in 2 weeks time (PAY DAY :biggrin: )
pc should be up to specs for hl2
i also modified the 5700 with heat sinks over the ram so it doesnt heat up as much.

2.8 P4*
512 PC4000**
6800GT
60 and 120 GB Maxtors***
17" CRT monitor... can't see myself going to TFT for at least a couple of years.
*It's only running at 3.1 because of stupid prime95 :smile: If I put it higher, everything is fine, except prime95 gets a rounding error after only around 5 minutes...
**Think I should get another 512 before DDR2 properly takes over, and DDR prices start to rise.
***I have totally run out of space, so probably going to replace the 60 with maybe a 250 or 300 if they come down in price, or more likely a 200, since they are cheap already.
Also I would quite like one of those new logitech 'laser' wireless mice, but I'm not sure if I can justify ?45 on a mouse :smile:

heh, dont need to worry about it now - im slightly rich as of yesterday
:smile: i could probably have afforded a new PC, but earning a wage has also
had a direct correlation with being at taxable age, and discovering the
beauty of women, beer, pot.. you know - the usual :smile:
edit: as for the point about doing charity things, i've actually given
some of my rejected parts (can't quite fathom how i've had any with
the age of this machine) to a scheme which they run in Derby (my home
city) - to export PC's to India and the schools over there :smile:

sadly, my standards are so low, that anything i reject is trash indeed..
i just took, 30-40 keyboards, and a bunch of old multi-plexors to the goodwill..
people do give me stuff (actually i still end up buying most of it) but mostly its pre 1997 stuff..
the largest pc so far is a 233.. at least till tracers 300 arrives.. yeah tracer :smile:
