HT Bus 1300mhz
BB ATI x800 XT PE
250gb Samsung 7200.8 SATAII

What the hell that's a POS right there.

let's see, we probably have the same RAM (VX4000), if not you suck.

x800XT? Disgusting. My 7800GT kills you.

what the hell is this... ok i know i don't have a chance at winning at all, but please don't post rubbish like this

If my 1.4Ghz Thunderbird and 9200 Pro are still enough for current games, why would a 3000+ be outdated by 2007?

There's some guy around here named Anand with a quad Opteron equipped with 8GB of RAM. He claims he runs an online Forum on it or something. Probably would make the top 5 with that, except I hear it's weak in the 3D-acceleration department

Does Anand really have that? I've always wondered what his system's specs were.

It would be interesting if he told us what he had in his blog and kept everyone updated when he upgraded.

Here you go: Anand's quad-Opteron 848, with pics, with an 8-disk 15000rpm SCSI array

Cool server, but ARGH. I thought you meant for a personal system.

I want Anand to tell us what he's usually in his home. I wonder if he keeps it loaded with the latest hardware. I wonder if he overclocks.

He's got to have something impressive.

Yes Anand's Compaq desktop (a Black Friday "almost free after rebate" deal) is very impressive. It can handle Oregon Trail and Wolfenstein.

I bet he's got it overclocked to 190mhz on phase change.

I guess if you are happy with what you got, it's all good.

Some people like fat chics, some like toothpicks. W/e pops your corn.

I personally like huge women... they are easy.

Wow, that's almost my rig (albeit 10 IDE&SATA drives instead of SCSI)...
