nothing special

a 2011 sony vaio vpcf 22l

an core i5 2410m 2,30 ghz

5 gig of ram ( dont ask )

750 gig hd ( and 6 tb externally )

and a 1 gig geforce gt 540m

all of this is ranning wandows ( the magnificent ) 7 64 bit

it doesnt run everything i throw at it but most of it

Very nice(thanks for pictures), I like it!

Np, glad you like. I just hope it keeps on working :D

btw the Silverstone SG05 case is small. Like really small - i added couple more photos with the help of typical finnish ruler:

Official dimensions are 222 mm (W) x 176 mm (H) x 276 mm (D), 10.8 liters. I seriously think that majority of people do not really have need for bigger case than this. As minus it only supports gpus up to length of 10" - but unless youre super-super serious about the latest and greatest triple A games, that wont be problem either.

...personally i got about this by getting myself Ncase M1, but more about that after ive actually received it and put it together ;)

Please keep me updated! Small cases are the nicest :D

Here's mine:

And I'm very happy with it. I switched from 32bit XP with old processor and 4000 series Radeon, so it's been a huge performance difference. Although there are 8 fans in total, it's quite quiet, even when plying.

My biggest gripe is the case, it doesn't seem very durable (when you try to detach the front panel, it's so resistant and makes such sounds that you'll thin you gonna break it to pieces) and the fact that sometimes it starts to resonate. Also the PSU cables are flat and rigid, making them hard to fit in an orderly fashion.

I agree with you about this :)

There are some builds that are interesting to read and see pics about, but which would not accept in my house even under threat of death (lots of pics):

Holy crap that first case looks a server rack! Wow :O

Hey do you guys think this pc is good enough to play some good games like bf4 and gmod

* Dell OPTIPLEX 9010 INTEL CORE 15 - 3550 3.30 GHZ

* CPU 16GB RAM

* 500GB HDD DVD - RW

and your video card is ?

need a bigger hd

battlefield 4 alone is around 40 gig

The PC my wife and I use most often currently (after the fan died in her Dell Inspiron 1720) is a Thinkpad X120e, an AMD E-350 based 11.6" laptop with 6GB of RAM and a 250GB disk.

The HTPC has a Phenom II X3 710, 4GB RAM, 60GB SSD + 2TB HD, Radeon 5550.

My main gaming device is a Nexus 7 (2012), Tegra 3, 1GB RAM, 32GB storage.

My gaming PC (second gaming device after the Nexus 7) is an ASUS VivoTab Note 8, Bay Trail Atom, 2GB RAM, 32GB internal flash + 32GB microSD card.

I also have a desktop PC, but it hasn't been plugged in for over 3 months.

(Edited: the X120e has a 250GB HD.)

Lol, 500 GB is not enough for 40 GB game? :p
Nah, your HDD is okay, but we can't really tell you without knowing your GPU.

if he plans to do more gaming then just battlefield 4 then 500 gig is nowhere near enough
i filled up a 750 gig hd in no time and i didnt even install everything i wanted too

...gods i miss the time when a 320 gig hd was huge and back ups were a few cd's not a stack of blu rays

Nah, I have 500 GB HDD with over 100 games installed and I still have over 100 GB free space. Yeah, I don't play sh*tty games like BF4 :p, but still, I see no reason to buy new HDD in this case. He will probably need money for a new GPU.

that he does

i currently got 75 steam games installed and that cost me north of 300 gig

...with 8 tb i dont really notice it that much
but games these days eat space liek nobodies business and 500 gig to me is small ...ish
