What's in your PC?

[Exo-Slayer]

The difference between the 320 and 640 is pretty small and the fps benefit is pretty unnoticeable unless you are running over 1680 x 1050 (this is standard for a 22 inch LCD).

I would recommend waiting till the end of the month when Nvidia releases the 8800 GT and the new revamped GTS lines. They are suppose to be a bit better then he current GTS in the same price range, and if nothing less should bring down the price on the current available cards.

17 blurry dell LCD

I have a 17' HP LCD w/ Speakers.

Not a Gamer's LCD Monitor, but most of the cheaper LCDs don't come with speakers.

 

[Mythran]

333 MHz Pentium Processor
32 MB RAM
1 GB HD
14" Monochrome Monitor (my old tv)
8 MB on-board vid card


I play WoW and CS.
I am a programmer analyst.
I am Kip.

(well, it sounded good while I wrote this up....this is pretty close to my old machine too)...

I don't remember specifics of my current machine. I have 2 GB ram, core-2 duo (1.86 GHz IIRC), 128 GeForce vid...not sure which...lol I play too much wow to remember what machine I built (and yeah, I built it...but do NOT remember what I bought and built lol). Amazingly, I'm using a 14 or 15" LCD still though...SO SMALL in wow BUT!!! I just won $700 on a $2 scratcher Maybe part of it will go to a new monitor <shrug>...

WoW drains your intelligence. And people pay to waist their own time...so sad.

That said, virtually any game is like that.

Denial is the biggest hurdle for people to get over their addiction.

The Chinese government is actually enacting measures that have penalties for being on online games for extended periods of time.
