Who has the crappiest computer?
 

OK in my poinion I probably have one of the worst comps among the guys in this forum. Maybe not THE worst, but it's pretty damn bad. I'm thinking whoever has the worst comp on this forum will receive a very cool "I have a POS computer" shirt made by me in the mail. Actually, I'm too lazy to do such a thing. Anyway, here are my specs:

AMD Athlon 1.1 GHz processor
16MB NVIDIA TNT-2 Vanta AGP vid card
256 megs of SDRAM (just upgraded today, WHOO!!)
20GB hard drive
cable internet connection
Windows ME OS

that's the main crap, now can you beat that for POS material?

Nope, wish I could...actually no I don't wish I could... eek:

How about the computer I used in June for MoH:
Intel 300Mhz
16MB Radeon
256 RAM
20GB Hard Drive
Windows 98
Cable


Lol, worst specs ever mad:


My new one though:
Intel 2.0Ghz
64MB GeForce4
512RAM
60GB Hard Drive
Windows XP
Cable

WooHoo happy:

I think im a strong contendor for this one:

pIII 450mhz
Integrated intel chipset graphics
SoundMAX Integrated Digital Audio
128ram
15gb
56k modem

And will have this one until feb. next year.

Aside from the memory and video card, you're computer isnt THAT much crap. Unless you're editing videos and what not, 1.1 gig of CPU speed, should be enough. What you need to focus on now is a better vid card, 512 megs of memory, and another hard drive.

As far as HD's are concerned, you can get a 100gig HD for 100 bucks if you look for Buffer speeds of 2 megs to save 15-20 bucks. I got my ass a 100gig Western Digital for 80 dollars. And unless you are REALLY looking you arent gonna notice anykind of difference. I've had the computer running around in hoops looking for info and have yet to see a 75% change.

And if you have CABLE and AOL/DIRECT CONNECT look for ways of improving that Operating System (Although ME is pretty darn good).

I currently run:

AMD 1600 (runs at 1gig though, freezes up when I up the speed, might have to look into that - dunno much about changing speed in BIOS)
100gig Western Digital XP (replaced a 60gig that I used, abused, and mistreated for a year)
30gig Western Digital ME
640 megs SDRAM (I've yet to see a convincing argument for spending 40 dollars extra for DDR)
ASUS K75A motherboard
PACBELL DSL (900-1100 connection speed)

Are you Mad? Windows ME is the buggiest POS I have ever seen in my life! I always get .dll errors and what not. It could be worse though, I could still have Windows V. 3.1. biggrin: Yeah you're right, my computer isn't all that bad, mainly it's the video card that is the sore eye in the mix. Captain Bunny that is pretty bad. You sir just might be receiving your very own POS comp t-shirt in the mail soon!

Woohoo! ohh and just to add what a POS my pc is, its made by Tiny. hake:

You know for the time, I've had Windows ME on my system, I've only ever encountered ONE major cum-fuck-up with it, and it was caused by me. Yea I'm sure teh DLL errors will pop up for folks out the wazoo, but for me I've yet to experience that. It's XP that I've had alot of problems with -

At least if you get a hardware error problem on ME you can boot to the system and correct it, with XP once I've had a hardware error problem, that's it - system refuses to boot. Back to reformat. So, I've got a 60gig HD that can still be used, just not with XP. If ever there was a way to have more than 2 HD's on ones computer, that man/woman would be a godsend. I've heard of this raid business, but seems to damn fishy to me.

my cable pc that i use all the time is a:

Tiny celeron 950
196ram
gefeorce2 mx400
>>4.8gb hard drive<<<!!!! it an old 'updated' comp
im using this at my college house.

geforce2 ti500

If you wanna talk about Old computers, up until this past Jan. I had a:

Pentium 200 MMX
32MB SDRAM
Win 98
16MB Banshee Vid Card


Luckily I never played MOH on it. I doubt it would have worked.

If you wanna talk really old computers I had a:

80 4806 for a few years. Cost $3500 and was best thing you could buy at the time.

My pc i use for recording video from games is the following.

Pentium 3 550 (slot ) 100mhz fsb
320mb pc 100 ram
20 gig western digital
soundblaster 16-pci
pinnacle pctv rave tv in card

dell 1.5mhz? damn that must be a slow pos biggrin:

Oh btw theres no such thing a a geforce 2 ti 500 biggrin:

Well, up until several months ago, I had a REALLY old Compaq (POFS) PC at my Mom's house.

Intel 233 MHz
64MB Ram
4 GB Hard drive (Gahaha, it held 2 games)
Some onboard sound crap
2D 4MB onboard graphics (mwah: )

Now it's just a kinda remake from my other computer which got upgraded

1.1 GHz AMD Athlon
256MB Ram
Some onboard sound crap
30GB Hard drive (Slow as hell)
32MB TnT2 Model 64, PCI

And it STILL runs as slow as my other one did, except this time, it plays games, only for a couple of minutes, then it goes to sleep. Oh well, I spend my gaming on:

1.7 GHz AMD Athlon XP 2100+
512MB Ram
30 GB Hard drive
SoundBlaster Live! 5.1
GeForce 2 MX400 64MB (Will be Gf4 Ti4200, 128MB in 11 days)

I don't know if that is the worst, but those are my computers.
