Ok being inspired from a recent thread where a certain someone started nerd raging about how good her/his/it's computer is, I find myself curious as to what you people are playing on o.o (like what brand computer, or if its custom mb list some specs like what CPU, gpu, video card etc etc)

So i'll start it :D

I'm running a custom built desktop (built it myself b:victory) with a AMD FX-8150 3.60 GHz Eight-Core CPU, NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 4GB 16X PCIe Video Card and 32 Gb of RAM.

How bout you guys? b:question

    I play it on a table. Especially since I don't want to put a monitor, keyboard, and mouse on my lap.

    My first PC i played pwi on b:cute.

    Processor - AMD Sempron 3.2ghz

    Ram - 512 MB ram

    HDD - 40 GB westgate (that format is outdated now, can't be bought anymore b:chuckle)

    Graphics card - 128mb ram, ancient one, forget the name.

    Windows XP, sp-2 i think.

    This pc was a jumble, the original was bought from a shop for 60~100 dollars in 2 000. We changed around a few parts with time, went from 256 mb ram to 512, upgraded the graphics card, put in a new processor, new OS, little things like that. Cannibalized from another pc that my brother stopped using.

    That dinosaur played a single client better than my current 6 core pc. There is something about single cores and windows xp that is still more appealing than mutli cores and windows 7.

    My PC (shared) is a 7 year old hand-me-down dell laptop, factory set, running windows XP. It has no extra memory, simple intel integrated graphics, and can't run newer games. It does, however, still run pretty darn well and hasn't let me down yet.

    I love the heck out of it, even though SOMEONE keeps hogging it to do his useless homework...

    Currently trying to stop being sick so I can get a job to get a newer PC.

    I just recently had my desktop custom built, and since I am not home, I'm going from memory. I just know I told my IT director here at work, set me up.

    Why do the specs matter? My computer from 10 years ago can run PWI at it's naitive resolution just fine. The only thing that has really changed is that I went from a 20" 1600x1200 from 2001-ish to the 30" 2560x1600 that I've been using since it came out, what, 5 years ago or so now? The Angelica Engine isn't even optimized for C2D... as far as I know it's still an MMX-optimized program.

    Right now, i7 2600k, 8gb, GTX580 2gb. It's old and I'd upgrade, but there's nothing that I do that requires more than I currently have.
