PC Showcasing/Show & Tell

[cyberjosh]

Hello All,

This thread is for you to post your specs and/or post any pictures or videos of your computer rig.

As for me I have posted two youtube videos on my PC, which I will give links to below. I'll post the specs for it later, some of the spec details are in the video description.

The first is the unassembled parts that I had just gotten in the mail at the time. The follow up video is of the assembled computer. The videos were made over a year apart, but I made the last one not too long ago. The only differrence in my setup is that I now have a new graphics card which I mentioned in the 2nd video. Like I said I'll post my system specs later.

How about you?

I was going to say you need some cable managment

Nice system though. Not sure if this is true anymore, but several years ago if you went from an NVidia card (BTW, Gainward rocks) but anyway, if you went from NVida to ATI, or maybe it was from ATI to NVidea, cant' remember which... But less than rebuilding your system the video card suffered tremendously due to the ghost drivers that were 'left behind' :yes

After you get your ATI card, sounds like a great time to upgrade to Win7

Are you sure that's an upgrade? We've been using Win7 at work since the beginning of August and I often wish we still had XP. We have scanners, cameras and printers that no longer work as well as a lot of programs that either have to be upgraded or thrown away even though there was nothing wrong with them under XP.

Microsoft has never produced anything stable with a version number less than 3. Win7 is version 2 of the Aero interface. I suggest people wait for the next version. which will be around 3 years from now, most likely. Sure, XP will be 12 years old by then, but which do you want - a computer that looks cool and has all the newest stuff on it, or one that works?
