I'm fascinated with computers and the hardware inside them, So I thought about starting a topic about this for fun.
Your computer doesn't need to be high spec or anything just what you use(for gaming or otherwise), hope people find
this as interesting as me! :)
My Current Computer Specs:
Build Date:
5-23-2012
MOBO:
ASUS M5A78L-M LX PLUS AM3+ MICRO-ATX
CPU:
AMD Athlon II X4 B55 Rana Quad-Core @ 3.3GHz Each (Basic overclock from 3 cores)
RAM:
8GB (2x4GB) CORSAIR XMS DDR3 @ 1333Mhz
GPU:
ASUS GeForce GT 520 1GB 64-Bit GDDR3 (Passively Cooled, No Fans)
HDD:
1TB Western Digital Blue (only a couple of months old, old one died)
PSU:
Thermaltake TR2 430W (Left over from my previous [FAULTY] 2011 computer)
CASE:
NZXT Source 210 Black ATX Mid Tower
OS:
Xubuntu 14.04 LTS (Currently at least, used Arch Linux when I built the computer)
I find the GPU suitable as it did precisely what I wanted: Play Legend of Grimrock through wine
(before the linux version), Sauerbraten MP (All maps over 60 FPS @ 1920x1200) and old crpgs
like Planescape Torment and Baldur's Gates.
